I'm sorry but I cannot find anything. This is the only answer you posted in the 4 or so days before you wrote this meta question, and neither the answer nor the question were ever deleted. I assume the answer you posted (and deleted yourself) an hour after posting this question is not what you were referring to, because that was never edited. | |

| Aug 14, 2014 at 8:26 | comment | added | user 99572 is fine | Cheat: Write your answer in external editor, keep a copy in case question gets deleted. If Q is deleted, ask original question (rephrased) and add own answer. | |

| Aug 14, 2014 at 5:34 | comment | added | Tyson | There are two excel questions, neither of which exist anymore. The second of which was 14 or 16 hours ago. I noticed the entire question was missing not long after the last edit to my answer. The prior occasion I remember less because I hadn't put the pieces together until it happaned today. | |
| Aug 14, 2014 at 3:34 | comment | added | Daniel Beck Mod | Are you talking about your own experiences on Super User? I'm asking because you have just one answer on Super User that wasn't deleted by yourself, and that one was a short one-liner with very basic information. I'm not saying the problem doesn't exist, but I could not find it in your profile. | |
| Aug 14, 2014 at 1:07 | comment | added | Journeyman Geek Mod | If people keep getting deleted questions, they eventually will get question banned. While its unsporting, unfair, and generally not cool. Being able to self delete answers generally has a purpose, but this particular use of it is entirely from a misunderstanding of the point of SE, in my opinion. | |
