I've noticed that some posts have been getting deleted. In one thread inparticular, there are people responding to posts that no longer exists. Shouldn't we be given a reason why a post was deleted so we know what we did wrong?

I'm not sure because I don't keep a log of what I posted, but I beleive there were a lot more posts in the "60 minutes has no credability" thread, and some of the missing ones were probably mine.
There are actually posts in there directed at me before I said anything (as read currently). Thus, it's making it look like someone else is throwing things at me for no reason (which is not fair to that person). Thus, it would be a good idea to leave something in there saying the post was deleted and why to explain the responses and let me know what I did wrong.
I think I remeber what I said, and I don't understand why it would have been deleted.
Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country. Four score and 21 weeks ago, I had a dream that all photographers would be created equal and everyones pitcher would win blue ribbons.
I'd say it's more likely that people edited out their original comments. Unless I'm mistaken, if a post is deleted by SC, any quotes of that comment are edited as well.
I just checked and there haven't been any posts deleted in that thread (as CJ said, they aren't deleted, just hidden) so anything missing would be a result of the author changing it themselves.

That's not automatic. We will often do so, but it is a manual process on each post.
Seriously, cross-posting is the act of posting the same or similar message to multiple threads or folders. It is generally frowned upon in most online communities and should generally be avoided.
