I’ve seen this happen a bunch of time now that people just ask a question and it’s deleted a day or so later. Do they delete the question themselves, or is that some automatic thing? If they do it themselves, why?
*edit*
Thanks for the great answers so far. Very insightful. Please keep them coming, I’m curious to more points of view.
I tend to do the much more efficient system of writing an entire essay to then decide to delete it before posting.
I recognize that strategy. I’d be typing out an entire epistle, only to delete it all in the end, because I figure I wouldn’t add anything to the discussion, or I don’t feel good enough to comment on something :)
