Hey admins, ever hear of editing a post?

Some of us come on here at our lowest, and we momentarily lose ourselves in trying to help others, sending out positive thoughts because we can’t muster up any for our own miserable lives. It just sucks to see my posts deleted with no explanation given. If I slipped up, fine, but how about (like admins do on other sites) editing the post with a bunch of asterisks where the offense was? Rather than deleting 3 or 4 paragraphs which somebody spent a lot of time and effort trying to compose? A lot of times I’m barely conscious when I post here, and I come back to read what I said with just a vague recollection that it was a positive thought. Gone. Nothing illustrates the futility of “shouting into a void” like someone deleting your posts without so much as an explanation.
