Thats what I was thinking, Im going to go ahead and guess that not too many fb users go through their entire timeline and delete Every.Single.Post. Flagging something like that as hostile and then "restoring" your timeline makes sense. However, I feel like there should be some kind of communication going on in email before something is actually done (for the mass deletes and auto restoring) and a simple "click here if this is what you really wanted to do" would suffice..

Wait for the company to realize what's going on. Wait for said company to release a patch to fix a problem that was obviously their fault to begin with. You face can return to it's normal color now. Jumping to conclusions like "SOL" is a bit ridiculous

edit: I'll gladly take a downvote for this, you're talking about screaming at customer support and IM getting downvoted. Constructive group we have here.

Officially out of luck? I've read in multiple places they are looking into it and will release a patch

I'll take my "more clever", and head back to the 1800s I suppose.

? It is related to the topic. Maybe not specifically the article but the website in question that was linked. I thought it was a pretty odd choice, and website design is definitely relevant to HN

Interesting, one question though. Who thought orange text on white background was a good idea? Ow

Boom. That right there pretty much ended any defense the CEO had. HN has countless submissions focusing on site layout/design/user interaction/click rate/etc

If you wanted the user to be able to see the message or cared that they did, you would have made it more obvious what was going on here.

then the point of having the hotline number is voided then aswell.

>"Daddy, why does that kid look all beat up"

Im pretty sure its explained in the ad: "If someone hurts you, phone us"

I agree it could cause some confusion but how many kids are going to ask their parents after reading the ad? We obviously can't know for sure but I feel like the ad conveys enough information to the point that "this kid was hurt by someone, if this is happening to you call us, we can help"
