I have posted a new post in the main forums asking for business plan ideas for a digitization project. I spent some time thinking and writing the post. Now, it is gone and there is no trace of what happened, which leads me to the questions:

1. Are there some rules that I may have inadvertently violated?
2. Are the posts pre-moderated?
3. Are you notified automatically or otherwise when your posts are deleted?
4. Are there automatic "spam" filters deleting the posts (I had a phrase "from hobby to full time work" in the name of the thread).
5. Is there someone I could ask directly about what happened?
6. Are the forum owners/sponsors, etc. for some reason against such posts as mine?

Just want to get a handle on this, not to stir anything up. If this forum is not the place for my questions, I'd appreciate someone saying so and pointing me to the right place.
