I don't recall ever having someone ask me not to post something. Is there an inbox or something or is it all reply based? I get "flagged" sometimes, but that just means someone pushed the "flag" button right? I thought posts were just deleted when they reached -1.

EDIT: Now this post and the grandparent post have had their points reduced. So, now I'm super confused - if this post had been detached from the main thread, who is downvoting it? Do the mods have abilities to see (and vote) on threads removed from users with lower access rights? Sorry for all the questions, but I'm not sure I understand how the comment system works really.

EDIT EDIT: OK now I understand how detached works, thanks.
