Razhie answered Sunday September 17 2006, 7:30 am: Moderators rate questions down that are poorly written, that we've seen a hundred times before, or ones that just don't make any sense. If five moderators agree that your question deserves the lowest rating it gets deleted.
If you don't want your questions to be deleted run your questions through a spell checker before you post, don't use more then one ! or ? per sentence and use capitals.
Everyone needs to know things dear, but it is much nicer to help people who help themselves. We want to encourage people to write questions well so that we can understand and help them thoroughly. Very few people here care if the way you type is a form of self-expression, or if you are just to lazy to write out because instead of bc. In order to get the best answers and higher ratings, that is what is expected.
If your question is that important too you then it is important enough to spell check and capitalize.
Honestly, your questions aren't that bad. I browsed through your question history and you have a lot of questions for the past few days that haven't been deleted and probably wont be. If you would just take a moment, throw in some capitals and apostrophes you'd probably find very few get deleted anymore. As for the other questions you see that are like yours, check to see if they use chat speak and ignore grammar. If they do, they probably just haven't been deleted yet. Questions with chat-speak and no semblance of grammar will get rated down by five moderators eventually, just takes a little while to happen. [ Razhie's advice column | Ask Razhie A Question ]
