Why they you decided to delete this article without telling me or giving me the reason?
What I wanted was to show you a problem that has thousands of users on the Internet who were downloading erroneously the PC/Mac games on the Android/iOS devices (include smartphones & tablets), and has grown in a serious way when these have become in dominants.
And when I made the part of YouTube, they deleted it without warning, I want to give me the reason for this.

Okay first of all, please learn how to write more fluently, I can barely understand what the hell you're typing.
Not to be that Grammar Nazi here but something like "why they you" makes no grammatical sense and people are less likely to take you seriously.
Second and more important user to user talk here: If a thread was deleted and you're not sure why, just PM the mods instead of bringing it on here in a general discussion. None of us really give that much of a shit about your issues with Youtube and Piracy, and chances are the mods felt that could have been a breach of rules that you probably never bothered reading to begin with.
Not here to judge you personally, but even I see this is a redundant thread that has no purpose here.

I'll be honest: I looked in that thread, and I had no idea what I was looking at. As I recall, the font sizes were all over the place, making it difficult enough to read, and then there were the random text images that just screwed with my perception further. It was simply impossible to understand.
As to why the thread was deleted, beats me. Could be as Dio said above.
But it's the internet. Thousands of users are going to do thousands of things they should or should not do. Just like billions of people in real life. Hell, they could just be downloading the content onto their phones to transfer to PC later because that's all they could do at that stage. It's anyone's guess. I don't see it as serious, it's just a regular occurrance.
As for the Youtube sections you're demanding extra reasoning for, maybe it was because it was because it wasn't hidden in spoiler tags. Not everyone here has the same internet capabilities, so it was done for those who have weaker connections so they could manage.

Dioshiba and The Observer, I only wanted to be informative in that thread, there are people who don't know what it means Windows, or that their phone or tablet is Android, and they download it without knowing it until they realize they have made by error.
It isn't only a problem of piracy, but also due to the lack of computing knowledge and for not knowing the different operating systems, that's why download Windows/Mac programs on Android/iOS is a problem that for me has become a more serious problem than you think, I've even had proofs like the link of someone who has downloaded a PC game from the Google Android app (android-app://com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox), and also I made comparisons of the Mediafire downloads with YouTube's real-time views, and few of them I managed to guess. Transfering the files downloaded to the mobile to the PC, if I seemed a good solution, but the problem is that there are many people who don't know that except Google Drive and Dropbox.
In terms of grammatical errors, all the fault of the Google translator, instead of deleting it, you should have asked me before I corrected the thread.

1. Points for trying. As I told you before, it was confusing to look at. The text kept changing, then there were text images which threw me for a loop. It was an organised mess, for lack of a better description.
2. Some people just don't know. It's really that simple. A computer is a computer, I didn't know what an OS was until I learnt about Mac computers, and that was about 13/14 years ago. And yeah, I've made the mistake of downloading files incompatible with my phone. Whoops. Did I learn? Well, it's not easy to know if the file is going to work with your phone or not, so sort of an ongoing process.
3. Again, some people just don't know. And how serious, I just don't get that. If the file is ultimately compatible because of software on the phone, then there's no issue, right? I've known people to open files on phones that I previously had no idea could actually do just that.
2 & 3. " Thousands of users are going to do thousands of things they should or should not do. Just like billions of people in real life".
4. ...I don't know what Mediafire has to do with Youtube for comparison purposes. It's like saying "My chicken laid six eggs, there's a higher amount of ducks in the pond". And guessing. I mean, I felt it was kind of biased when you made that thread, but now I'm sure of it. At university, I'm constantly told "check your sources when making points". If your source is yourself via guesswork, it doesn't make for a good argument.
5. Both of which are fine and sufficient for the task they're required to fulfill. There's also the SD Card.
6. Grammar will not have been the reason the thread disappeared. I don't know the reason, before you ask. As Dio said, just PM the staff here.
7. I strongly advise you now to otherwise just let it go and stop talking about it here. It's gone, and it's out of the hands of us lowly members. Just ask the staff, one of them shall have the answer you seek.

1. I tried to do the best I could in that thread, but for you, it didn't work out what I expected.
2. Did it happen to you too? I understand, it has happened to us all, it is normal to make mistakes, but I have a Samsung tablet.
3. I see it seriously, because I believe that thousands of similar cases are happening, and it continues to grow as the use of mobile phones grows.
And if for example the software of Windows can be compatible with Android, then it's thanks to the emulators, such as Exagear, Dos-Box, PC Limbo and Wine for Android, but at the moment it only works with files from old versions like Windows 95 and 98.
2&3: I know that on the Internet, anyone does what they can do or not, but making mistakes sometimes has a price.
4. I was referring to the points that coincided, in the YouTube visits that entered the mediafire links that are in the description of the gameplay videos, downloading from your mobile/tablet of Android/iOS without knowing that in reality is a game for PC/Mac, it will be because they didn't focus on the details of the gameplay that show that it's a PC/Mac game (like the mouse cursor, or their featured windows).
5. The SD card it's also a good point. I like this answer.
6. If it wasn't by the grammatical errors, then it was due to the bad structure of the thread.
7. I'm only a junior member, but I has been here for 5 years, If you are so hard with me, then, goodbye.

Okay I'm going to stop you right there.
Just because you are a junior member does not explicitly mean that you're off the hook and that doesn't exactly mean that we're being hard on you. It doesn't matter how long you've been here for or how much you post, in fact threads like this are the reason why rules for the board exist to begin with. We're just telling you how it is and you're the one constantly trying to argue with us over it.
So English isn't your main language, okay, I respect that. But even then I would not rely solely on a translator to actually make a thread that tries to discuss things of this nature, that's why it's better to learn the basics of the language on your own.
If you're going to leave just because we happen to tell you why we suspect your thread was deleted, then by all means but in my personal opinion that's just childish and I don't really see where you're allowing yourself to grow as a person here if you do that.
With respect, I'm reporting this thread. Not because I think that you're a bad person, because you seem nice enough to me. But I think you're not totally understanding of what the rules and norms are of this board are. It happens, but please take the time to lurk around here and see how other people post before you make a thread and you probably won't run into this issue again.

Thank you for your response, it has been the most moving.
After all, much of what I did before, especially the threads from the year 2016, they didn't nothing more than get off my reputation, and I had interpreted them as something decent, informative and to give some opportunity only by several supercifial details that almost reflected my favoritism, when in fact they were badly structured, irrelevant and controversial (as the top 5 of the free platform games that were considered undervalued by having very few downloads, when they were too simple, something glitched, and nothing showy (reasons for their resounding fail), even one of my own projects became controversial and that made me close the thread).
In short, nobody is born knowing and in a comprehensive way.
For reference, I was the one who deleted that thread. It was reported as spam and looking at it, it really seemed to be. I wasn't sure what was going on there but it was really all over the place and didn't seem to serve a purpose. I'll admit I only skimmed it but that's why it was deleted with no notification (or warning, I might add - I just removed it and moved on). I'm going to go ahead and close this thread because I think the point has been made. You're welcome to stay if you'd like or leave if you still intend to - just know that it wasn't anything personal when that thread was removed.
