Disappering chat?

playing in game 4462427 a player did some minor complaining. Later his comments had been deleted. How is this possible? And why is this allowed? A player could be very mean and nasty in a game chat and then just delete it all destroying any evidence??

Game chat cannot be deleted. What happened is, you didn't like what he/she said/did, and you placed him/her on your 'foe' list. Since one of the functions of the 'foe' list is that you can no longer see game chat posted by any 'foe', you can't see the posts that they have previously made, thus making them appear to have been deleted.

Thank you, I did not realize it was retroactive.

yes, that actually happens and is standard for people on your foe list (which i don't use). and my game chat had nothing to do with your racism you exhibited in the game chat, which is why you were banned. dropping the N-bomb in game chat is digusting, period. one week, in my opinion, was nowhere near enough...-0

Drop it, owenshooter. It's over and done with. You both served your time and need to let it go and move on.

Thread locked, the proper answer has been given and I don't want to give you another playground today.
