Disappearing posts
I've just typed out a fairly lengthy reply post - twice. Both times the page said it had been posted and showed it at the bottom of the page. The second time I even caught a screenshot of this.
But now neither post is visible. Maybe it is being moderated or something but I have no message or information about that. It's really frustrating.

I'm so sorry about that. it's great that you have a screenshot - do you know the times it happened? I can have the support people look back in the logs. Please share more information with me so that I can investigate.
I was trying to reply to this post: http://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/Is-anyone-on-the-form-available-to-hire-as-a-Power-BI-consultant/m-p/9054#M1658
It was a few minutes before I wrote that "disappearing posts" post above.
Here's my screen shot showing my seeming accepted post.
mike_honey I see your post on the forum is there. Was this solved?
Hi, this same has happened to me after I edited my post more than one time. Can you please mark it as not spam?
Hello MilapM,
Your post has been marked as not spam and it has been moved back. The platform scans for spam automatically and we monitor all flagged posts to determine whether or not the content should be unmarked. There are multiple variables the platform scans for and I have no way of knowing exactly what triggered your post to be flagged. Some common trigger items are copy and pasting content in and multiple edits. You should be good to go on this post. Thanks for being a part of the community!
my reply posts and new posted are also being deleted.
For some reason- we just discovered some posts are going into SPAM Quarantine - I believe this is where all the disappeariing posts are going. I am going to make a pass through and mark them as not spam. And will be more watchful over that quarantine - to catch 'not spam' posts earlier!
