I have a question about removed content

This just happened the second time to me and i was wondering if there is a solution to my dilemma.

A post of mine gets removed. That is fine because i know that i sometimes am a little harsh... But i post a lot on the boards. I have no idea what was removed. When i clicked Riots notification about a removed post, it didn't show me the post that was removed.

Can you be a little more transparent, dear moderators? I understand that you cannot possibly write a personal message, but can you at least make it automated that the post you removed is referenced in the removal message?

To give an example: This is like you are the teacher, grading a test i took, telling me 5 out of the 30 answers are wrong but NOT telling me which 5.

Best regards, Aerothal

edit: Just read this in a post from Tamat: "We will always send you a private message with WHAT we removed, WHY we did, and WHAT (if any) your punishment is." i haven't received a message like that. Where would that be?

Second edit: Thanks for the answers below, Riot!

Hey Aerothal,

That's our bad! There used to be some functionality in place that would automatically include a link to the content being touched in the message, but that stopped working so the moderators have been doing it manually. I'll touch base with the team to make sure they do this moving forward. In the meantime, I've sent you a private notification to better explain the action that was taken. I hope that sheds some light on things for you.

Sorry again!

Hey Aerothal, I sent a message over to Tamat to investigate.

Could probably better speculate if you could show us the post that was removed. Or you can probably just wait for a red to respond.
