Question for a moderator.

Not to hijack the thread, but tangentially related -

Since my last post in the "wasting time"-thread apparently caused the mods to lock it (it was "in response to" my post), I would genuinely like to know what I said that was offensive. Not to argue, but because I am genuinely baffled.

There were no personal attacks or intentions, just an expression of my own general opinions on the matter.

Can anyone enlighten me? Does the fact that I'm not natively English-speaking cause me to miss out on nuances that others perceive as overstepping the line?

I was subjected to moderation quite a lot and some of my posts went in

the cloud with no trace what so ever so I have reduced my participation

on these forums for now. I hope this is rectified soon as Adobe

products are the best for Windows platform (and Mac of course). I have

recently started using Ubuntu because one of the whizz-kids we have

employed only knows Linux and so we need to find something else for him

to do (in the cloud of course). He talks about privacy issues with

Windows 10 and all that but I don't buy it.

One of the main reasons for the seemingly draconian moderation protocols (even sneezing seems to trigger it) is due to the consistently high volumes of spam attacks to which the Adobe forums are subjected daily.

Adobe has locked down just about every option provided by Jive (the forum software vendors) and enforced manual moderation for many scenarios simply to keep the forums operational and spam free.

Posts from Adobe staffers, moderators, forum members, foot soldiers and newbies all get subjected to moderation at times depending on post content, frequency and other metrics.
