I think this post should be left up. Rules are meant to be followed but they can also be ignored in special occasions, and I think this warrants that. This is definitely a problem and something that needs to be dealt with and people need to be aware of.
Unfortunately, I don't have the power to un-delete it. I've already brought the issue up to the other mods, perhaps we can bring it up in next week's open thread with a solution. I do agree that this needs to be seen. I had no idea this was the case and archiving the link once a week would probably not be a big inconvenience to us.
I wonder why voat doesn't allow mods to undelete like reddit does?
I think the mods should have a thread about it as soon as possible, so many threads get removed, that means even more potential for stuff to be lost between now and next week.
This really sucks, I know there were some good threads that got removed weeks ago...

Do the mods know about it? I'm sure it's likely they weren't aware it only went back 8 pages.

I did not know that was the case. I'll start a conversation with the other mods to archive every 8 days.

Yeah I agree. I'm going to push to have action taken quickly, and I'll archive the link right now so nothing else gets lost.
