Why do contributors delete their own posts?


A significant contributor who shall remain unidentified deletes posts shortly afterwards. It’s not done with the intent of correction, but for the purpose of limited viewing. I wonder what rationale warrants this behavior. It certainly not for the benefit of providing context for later viewers who might want to learn from the thread.

Nothing in my OP suggested troll behavior. But leave it to a Troll-in-Chief to presume such. 
I don’t know much but I do know a troll thread when I see one. I also know a troll when I see one. 🤗
Talk of the devil? That must be English for speak of the devil. 😃
TBF, I delete posts when I've said something which was clearly wrong, but when I wrote it I was short on coffee, but it is too late to edit it.


I've also deleted an entire thread out of an abundance of caution that I might have used a phrase which would be misconstrued to support or approve of antisemitism and that is never my intention.

Best,
