Seniors,what's the odds of winning the appeal?

The Tompall question was deleted.'promoting sites' it had a YT link

As Ithat was where the relevant information was,I've appealed,if only to waste a bit of their time.

I'm thinking 'even money' to win the appeal

Update:

LILY:

They add a box saying 'what;s your source' I find it hard to understand putting your source as a link,is wrong. never mind

Handyman:

Gee thanks,you've really bucked me up :)

You should keep appealing,if only to annoy them

    I struck a nerve (and had many answers to) my dirty books question, so naturally it was gone this morning. Not to rain on your parade, but I've never had one reinstated, and have quit trying. Good luck though. Lightning may strike.

    You have my vote! I am losing faith here with all the deletions and TD. I wonder if some of it is just glitches as I have posted questions, have been told immediately the question has been deleted, yet there it is. I too have received many answers to my questions and haven't even had a chance to read them all and received a violation and it was deleted. What is YA actually doing, promoting trolling? If you have the time just keep it up. Hope you have the stamina and determination to win. We are all backing you so do keep us posted.

    I had an answer deleted but I don't care. The trolls are not going to get a reaction from me, I did not appeal, it is not worth my time. Poppy

    I have never won an appeal, but I do believe that I have seen one person state that they have won an appeal. You could be #2.

    Hi KR, oh it's infuriating my "can you keep a secret" question has also been deleted, Heaven knows why, I had 30+ replies and didn't get to read them all.

    These violations and TD trolls are getting ridiculous with no reason for it.

    Good luck with your appeal I'm not holding my breath regarding mine.

    The odds are good if you become a pain in their backside.

    When all else fails paper them to death.

    Best of luck.

    I know it can be annoying, but..............

    You should be proud and very happy.

    You must be really annoying the trolls to get a deletion or violation.

    I applaud you for that

    Appeal, even if you waste your time, you will be annoying them, they're only whack jobs anyway.
