Hi folks
We're looking to expand the forum rules - with a "why" section that explains why the abuse and forum team do certain things. .
Over the years I've written many explanations on such things here and we want to collate them. It'd be great if regulars would let me know the things that are asked again and again.
Examples include...
Thanks
Martin

- "Why was my post moved / deleted without someone telling me?"
- "Why was the whole thread in discussion board deleted when it was just one post?"
- "Why don't you tell people what they've done wrong?"
- "Why are posted about Islam deleted when other religions aren't?"
Thanks
Martin

Why might a signature be removed?

Even if they don't relate to you - even if they are annoying questions - if they're asked a lot its worth having a depository of answers.Martin Lewis, Money Saving Expert.

Why have we not got moderators and what is a boardguide?You have the right to remain silent.Anything you do say will be misquoted and then used against you
Knowledge will give you power, but character respect.

Why do MSE staffers ignore MSE rules/stickies and post discussion posts in the benefits forum, when its clearly stated that that forum is not for discussing benefit policy?
Why do board guides ignore that?
Why does the abuse team ignore reports about it?[greenhighlight]but it matters when the most senior politician in the land is happy to use language and examples that are simply not true.
[/greenhighlight][redtitle]
The impact of this is to stigmatise people on benefits,
and we should be deeply worried about that[/redtitle](house of lords debate, talking about Cameron)0 -
