What's going on with Astrologic's posts? Why am I only seeing a dot? Am I correct in thinking she is editing her posts and because they can't be totally deleted she is leaving a full stop in the place of her post. 

Not only is this annoying it renders the discussion pointless when you can't see the comment that other people are commenting on. 

So Astrologic, would you please refrain from deleting your posts, or if you can't do that, then would you please refrain from commenting in the first instance. 
Those who got it wrong, for whatever reason, may feel defensive and retrench into a position that doesn’t accord with the facts.

Beats me. I'm not sure if they're all edited or begin life as the infamous Dot. Astro?

It would be nice if you could decide before posting, Astro'.  People are beginning to think you have gone dotty.

You are right KiwiMum, that is exactly what she does.  Only Mods & Albert can delete a post.  Maybe one or two of the Admin Advisor Group also.  Some of the time one of us Mods gets a look at it before she changes it to the Dot.  We "save" some of them, I won't say any more than that.
 
I don't know why she does it except that sometimes I guess she realizes it'll stir up trouble, I totally agree... think before you post or don't post at all.

There are only two AA Group. One is inactive. The other is myself. And yes, I have full functions.

Astro is speaking in code. Not morse code but poetic code.

Though it does look like Morse.

Seems to me it some sort of code. I've applied Morse code to her posts but have been equally bewildered. In Morse code

. = e

So her posts are 'e's ...hmmmm I'm sure she can do better than that.
