Factorio Forums

I just invested about an hour to create an account on this forum and submit a bug report. It was declined with:
"Reason: The reported message has the only purpose to advertise for a website or another product"
which is totally absurd... now I can't find the report I've written and taken time to make screenshot for...
Very disappointed. I'm open to make adjustment if some mod could point to what was really wrong with my post...

From what I can see in the moderation logs, I can only guess the disapproval was a human error. I understand the answer will by no means be satisfying, but all I have to present for the inconvenience is apologies on the behalf of the moderators and the devs.
For our defence, there is a LOT being posted by new forum users since the release of Space Age, occasional human errors are inevitable.
I will seek help from the forum administrators to see if your post is recoverable, and keep you updated here.

thank you for your prompt response

Hello SimpleID, the disapproval of your topic was an error on my part, and I apologize for it. Unfortunately, I'm unable to restore the post contents since they were deleted, but to make up a little for my mistake I did some research into how phpBB handles rejected posts and made sure that from now on they will only be soft-deleted with a restore option.

All right, I've just reposted . Hope this one gets through.
You guys are awesome!
