And are there the mod resources to increase workload? I know it doesn't apply to everyone but a mod comment about a post being deleted could be seen by some as an invitation to discuss it more instead of drop it after seeing the comment. I don't know if a set rule is the way to go with it, but a judgement call on the part of the mod and maybe PMing them if you're not sure why posts have been deleted?

..also I think it's the thing as well that it could just encourage negative attention and gossipy stuff from others with...'why was Jamie's post inflammatory then../what did he say../spill the tea..'...that's not good for the general forum vibe I personally don't think....

If a post is inflammatory then I presume the poster would get an infraction though

..that was just an example Cherie of a comment in an edit which may have been made by a moderator...../I have no idea what the reason for an edit would be but I'm confident that there would be felt to be a reason...

The one of mine I remember seeing, I think I made a comment within a post that Vicky felt could have been seen as being inflammatory, but not directly, or not intended... or something. Not worthy of being infracted for basically but taken out to be on the safe side in case it caused any unnecessary drama
