Better readability of the threads

Dear site administrators,
I suggest that places whose content you have removed be marked with a corresponding notice. That makes the course of the conversation readable and understandable.

For the sake of simplicity, this could, for example, be some kind of stamp whose size could be adjusted as needed.

Here is a very rough idea:

Addendum:
Following the course of a discussion becomes difficult when a complete post “disappears” without this being visible to readers. Post replies then sometimes appear in a completely different light and can be misunderstood.
As an example, I would like to cite the thread under "Buy" from 25/06/2024, "A+++ - certificate cannot be provided." Through an imperceptible intervention in the flow of the conversation, namely deleting it, a new context arose within the post that could be misunderstood and was therefore capable of causing discord within the thread.
The same applies to deletion carried out only sentence by sentence within a post.

I also see another problem in the changing numbering of posts due to intervention that is not marked.

I would like to suggest that

deleted posts be marked with an appropriate note.
Example: "This post did not comply with the netiquette and had to be removed."
the numbering of replies be unchangeable.
This way, readers can see that an intervention took place. In addition, unchangeable numbering could help make it easier to establish a connection to the reply. I can imagine that this would significantly reduce the "bad habit" of inserting complete screenshots or full post quotes.

Moderation intervention to ensure compliance with the platform rules is necessary. Transparency makes decisions understandable, improves the reading flow, and can help avoid possible misunderstandings.

Thank you very much.

Good morning @Anonymous ! 😊

A good suggestion! Implementing it would reading and understanding

significantly improve. Maybe it is feasible! 🤔

Addendum 2:
Because of rudeness, I would like to change my wording as follows (second bullet point, last sentence): ...In this way, inserting complete screenshots or full post quotes can be significantly reduced...

I apologize for my rudeness.
Thank you very much.

the numbering of replies is immutable.

Hello @Anonymous, do you mean the moderation should set placeholders? I don't think that's a bad idea at all. Let me think about it a bit, please 🌷

Yes, exactly, a placeholder.
That’s a much better term than my clunky description.

Thanks, steffi@ebay.
