I recently banned a member of my forum. A couple of days later someone noticed that all of the banned member's posts were gone. I didn't delete them, and there is no mention of the posts being deleted in the security log. So can anyone explain what is going on?
Is it possible for users to delete their posts even after they have been banned? And if so, shouldn't there be a record of this in the security log?
My forum mainly deals with debunking the "faked moon landings" conspiracy theory, and the banned member was a conspiracy theorist. It would be nice if I had a good explanation for why those posts went missing because right now it probably looks to his friends like I was trying to silence him.
The truth is that I rarely delete posts, only do so when they violate the Proboards Terms of Service. I even made a screenshot of the security log showing that no posts were deleted.
