I'm hosting a RP here (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=525935&page=2) and discovered the following:

This message has been deleted by Erastide. Reason: Please do not repost moderated posts

I'm intrigued. What happened? What does the message mean?

I'm fairly certain it's a reference to this (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=511850): if posts go to 'Pending moderator approval', players get frustrated and click more than once, meaning duplicate posts end up going through.

Aaaah. That makes sense. The message is attached to a deleted post and the following post is from the same new nation.

Thanks.

Yeah... I try not to just completely remove the post, and hopefully remind some people not to do it again. It's really irritating to find a huge list of posts needing to be approved only to realize that quite a few of them are duplicates. I don't want to clutter up people's threads, so I delete them.

It's appreciated.
