Can an administrator please explain why my thread regarding Grayson Murray was deleted?

Posted on 05/25/2024 3:49:05 PM PDT by Toespi

I posted the breaking news regarding the death of Grayson Murray over three hours ago. In fact, it was within five minutes of it being announced on CBS Soorts. It has been removed and replaced by two other threads one, beginning at 5:35 and the other at 6:01. I would just like to know why. Thank you.

Probably an Admin. not noting the time stamp and deleting it due to duplication. That’s my guess.

One was posted at 5 pm central. Yours might have been a duplicate

Maybe you weren’t the first post and it was a duplicate story

Yes. It really isn’t a big deal to me but just interested as to why, if I may have made a mistake or something.

No, I was the first post. I checked it out before I created the thread.

Maybe the later threads just caught more initial responses and the mods were trying to cut down on dupes?

Your post was retro-virused, perhaps like Murray.

I think the mods deleted your article because this article, with the same source, was posted just before yours. That's usually standard procedure around here - to reduce duplicates.

It was pulled by the moderator because it appeared to be a news article but there was no link. I’ve restored it for you.

Thanks Jim. Not necessary, I was just confused as to what may have happened. We were watching CBS Sports when it was announced and I didn’t have a link other than the source which was CBS/Golf on TV. I was pretty sure I added that to the thread. Thanks and I will be more careful in the future.

Did you have a link? Usually if it is a duplicate, they just lock the post from taking any more comments. No link will cause your post to be deleted.
