Confusing Mod Feedback Message

Today, I got the following message:

Greetings Hyrum Graff,

We have removed your content due to a violation of the following board rule: Adhere to Board Guidelines

This content was posted in the wrong board. We'd like to encourage you to repost this in the "Help & Support" boards. Also, please take some time to review the Guidelines for each board before posting. These can be found in each board on the bottom left-hand side of your screen.

Don't worry; you're not in trouble! This is just a heads up, and a reminder to become more familiar with the Guidelines for each board so you can ensure your content is appropriate. If we don't keep things organized, the boards will become less useful and a lot more cluttered.

Sincerely,

Riot Moderation

Unfortunately, the message didn't contain any mention of what content was moderated. I'm a very active poster, so I've got a lot of content and can't figure out for the life of me what post of mine was deleted.

This post serves two purposes:

  1. I'd love for a rioter to drop by and let me know what content of mine was moderated. I try to be pretty conscientious about posting on the correct board, so I'm rather confused about what I misposted.
  2. I'd like to suggest that you at least include the title of the post in your moderator message, to avoid confusion.

Cheers, Hyrum Graff

I'd love to help, but i have no idea what your original thread was about. Were you asking for help on a lol problem? and posted in the ahri the sexy fox forum? if so that is why it was deleted.

It might help if you didn't post so much :P. I honestly have no idea, sorry :(, it's strange they don't mention it specifically in the message.

Hey Hyrum,

Sorry for the delay in this reply, and for the confusing experience that you had. If you didn't see the Change Log for this week, then check it out. Specifically, the part about Moderation quoted below.

Moderation is an on-going effort, and we’ll continue to make small improvements. For this first week, we’ve added the ability for a player whose discussion has been deleted to still see that post. This way, if your post is appropriate but in the wrong place, you can copy and paste or otherwise save the work you put into the post and find the right spot for it.

  • We made it so that the author of a deleted discussion can still view their post.
  • Discussions that have been deleted are still viewable by original author

Something we didn't include in this change log is that within each Moderator Notification, we will be including a link to the discussion or comment that was removed. This should remove the confusion that you experienced.
