    Default Why did my post get removed?

    I placed a post earlier today to discuss a new speaker product and just checked back and the post is gone!?

    Can you please let me know how this forum works? Is it not a free and open forum where people are free to discuss audio products or is it controlled and only products "selected" by admin are allowed to be on here?

    I'm gonna guess that somebody thought you were more interested in promoting or selling the product than discussing it. Sometimes signals get crossed but the forum is open and you are free to be mind controlled by Tom Andry.

    I didn't see the post, but what Alex said could be possible. If your post seemed spammy/like an advertisement, odds are good that's why it was removed.

    What is written on the forums are open and free, but the content on them is at the discretion of the owners of said forums. You clearly did not read the forum rules.

    You came here solely to promote your products for free. Your posts were deleted. Seems pretty easy to understand to me.

    Feel free to contact our advertising department (link at bottom of page), though typically we don't accept advertising from start-ups.

    To put this in perspective:

    If you had posted about a DIY design that was being put into the public domain so anyone could build them then that post would have been fine.
