What happened to my posts?

[The Loaf]

Thanks. I'll try not to "overpost" next time. But I will say this: The only reason I even put a post in the Italian forum was because my initial question on the Novice forum was purged before anyone had a chance to respond there. This is a bit confusing because I've seen other similar questions asked and responded to in the Novice forum. Why was it initially removed?
