    All Reghakr's posts were deleted suddenly.

    Note that he was thanked 26 times, but his statistics show only 3 posts total.

    In this post he is responded to but his posts are missing?

    I've never seen all posts by a user deleted. He didn't seem to be giving out bad advice. What's up with this?

    Thanks.

    Thanks Lev :)

    I realize that reghakr was jumping into many threads all of a sudden and I thought he should slow down to make sure his advice was useful. But some of his advice was not entirely bad. I posted the question because I had never seen all posts by a user disappear from the forum.

    I did not read all his posts at one time, like Major Attitude, and can imagine that as a sum they looked rather bad. I hope that he was warned before being banned.

    Just prior to my posting, I was reading a thread he had started about trouble with USB flash drives not being recognized. A common problem that I was interested in the resolution. He had posted a reply and when I refreshed it was as if he and all his posts had never existed. I was unsure if it was a bug in the forum software.

    Thanks again for the prompt and honest answer. I appreciate it.

    He was warned, he even apologized and admitted he was not reading the threads completely. Then he continued. Our reputation is what it is because we monitor for quality. Sorry if you missed a post, but odds are it was either incorrect or some generic answer he Googled. He claims to have come from another forum and was bragging on how knoiwledgeable he was, all we saw was someone who could not follow a thread and knew what Google was. Hope that answers it for you, we did give him numerous warnings.

    Thanks Major for responding. :)

    I was confused by the removal of his previous posts because I've never seen that happen. I understand now.
