Normally, posts will get deleted, if the content breaks site rules. As each thread has 175 or so posts, the Original Post is just a minority of the contents and others may have broken forum rules, after you've created the thread.
Overall, most people are well behaved and the forum maintains a positive, upbeat atmosphere, that's supportive of wellbeing. If things conflict with this, they might get removed.
It sounds like your topic wasn't grossly inappropriate, so I'm not commenting on it, not having seen it. Mods may see several hundred posts a day and won't remember them all, especially when they haven't posted to them.
But posters aren't responsible for what others post, unless inciting rule breaking, etc. Likewise, nobody can dictate what others will subsequently post, with many threads taking on a life of their own.
If you'd done something wrong, you'd have had a warning/block. Some posts get moved, into different sub-forums, such as from the Lounge, into Politics, etc. So it can be worth checking that this didn't happen.  |
