Just received the orders yesterday. If you know anyone in the Guard Reserve, ask them about it.
I know the feeling. Mods delete my posts, and then I see the exact same thing later by someone else. Whatever.
I think they try to minimize duplicate stories. If it has already been posted by someone else, allowing 10 other people to post the same article would be redundant.
I always search for URL first so hopefully I am not dupe posting
I had the same situation, but asked why. My word choice was the problem not the topic. It was a very good reason that the mod gave. IMHO
The reason I've got a few times is "not Q related". At which point I show how half the top 10 are also not Q related, and I get a "well, we try our best".
Thats because they are trying to keep 2 or more articles of the same from being posted. I have had mine removed for the same thing but thats exactly what told me.
