Curious, when does a comment become deleted like this? Is it automatically deleted after a certain number of down-mods, do the HN admin gods remove it for whatever reason, or is it only removed when the poster manually deletes it after a comment has been made on it?
Replied to you since I can't reply to the deleted comment.
- rms 19y agoManually deleted by the poster within one hour after original post. If the admins got rid of it, it would still be there but it would be marked "dead" and would only show up if you enabled showdead in your profile.
- rms 19y agoOh, otherwise the comment would just disappear, but it shows as deleted when there are replies to it.
