The last of my discussion questions has disappeared. How to make sure others haven't?
It's happened again. Questions stack up and it's hard to make sure an older question hasn't also disappeared. I will mail to SL, but how have you been dealing with this? Have you started saving them elsewhere? (Edit: It was a useful question with informative replies but had been under spam attack, so I blocked one or two people and reported some replies, the upvotes and tick I gave got lost, question started getting downvoted and then finally I lost the question) Any clues ? Thanks. link of lost question: https://www.sololearn.com/Discuss/3042891/?ref=app

Korkunç the Terrible Frusciante , it's sad that this discussion disappeared, it took first place in popularity among new products and even then it was disliked by 5 people, without any explanation.
Usually, if the moderator is going to delete something, he first warns about it, explaining why.
In this discussion began to spam and I suggested that you contact some moderator to remove them.
Did you do it, if so, maybe the moderator misunderstood you and deleted the whole discussion? đ€

Solo I had already reported some posts by the time I talked about it but I hadn't talked specifically to a mod (I was going to do it today unless the spamming wouldn't stop)
Today, though, I sent 5 different mails about 5 persisting problems.
(notif delays, message delays, asynchronous refreshing of feed and actual link reflecting badly on votes I give to others and drives me crazy in fact, {} still showing on interface instead of </>, etc)
Because I used to think some of this was because of me/my phone I hadn't reported most of these but question loss is something big. And before it happened due to may SL update, iirc.

Maybe some of the new moderators don't understand the difference between deleting spam answers and deleting the question.
It's bad enough that they remove only a fraction of the content they should remove. Deleting legitimate content instead takes bad content management to a whole new level.

If you're making multiple post for the same topic then it is considered spam. You can check your profile for a list of all your questions post and answers. Also if you've mailed Sololearn then let them take care of it. We don't have any power to do anything.

Left in the dark... it's so random one cannot tell how often this could happen and what to expect.
I'm sure they will put it back up but I also have a hunch that this will keep happening, leaving everyone to their own devices.

Chris Coder I didn't make multiple posts of the same topic?
I asked, in my question, if you do other things than just mail to SL such as save your SL discussions and codes elsewhere, just in case.
If someone has many questions, it's likely that they won't be able to tell an older question of theirs has disappeared even if they look at their profile. (edited here for clarification)
If by chance a mod saw this, I was just hoping for a reply like "yes the problem might continue, save it", or something like "it's probably your phone".
They don't inform you about why it happens, they just save your question and let you know (when your question disappears and you mail rhem about it)
Apparently the problem's not common. It was, after the update, though.
