Just an idea

It isn't anything big but when a page is deleted for any given reason could it be possible so we get a page that states that it's deleted & why perhaps? Earlier I was on a forum (NO idea why it was deleted really I'v seen worse) but I got a reply on one of my comments that was a joke, and when I clicked go to comment- http://imgur.com/a/NTdko I got to this page http://imgur.com/a/qTl5g

I spent like a good half hour just trying to figure out what had happened -because the posts that was replied to and replying were not in the accounts post history/boards profile as things that had even been posted- when I realized, the page had probably been removed due to some of the content that wasn't exactly... polite so to speak. So I just thought it would be nice if you just implemented it so the page still "existed" but rather just was changed to the "reason it was removed" post that you would receive if you were the creator.

I know this thread probs won't be noticed, and even if it is it won't be implemented because riot has bigger things to deal with, but it really would be nice.

When we remove a post for violating the Universal Rules, the point is getting rid of it so no one sees it again. The player who made the post receives a message letting them know why it was removed because they're the ones that really need to know why it's gone. In some cases, if a discussion has simply crossed a bit of a line as opposed to being completely inappropriate, we'll lock the discussion and state why. However, that's fairly rare as, for the most part, we give people the freedom to have those conversations as long as they don't completely break the rules.

The only exception to this is when someone posts in the wrong section. In that case, we let the player know where to re-post it and if they do you can join back in the conversation.

tl;dr: The person that made the post needs to know why it broke the rules so they don't do it again. Letting everyone else know is akin to naming & shaming so we don't do it.
