What happened?

Pie-is-square made a post called “Axioms”, which I read. At least Hix did to(because e commented on it). Now it is gone. I figure it was deleted.

If no Olympian has commented on it, an official post may be altered or removed by its author; otherwise this can only be done as allowed by the Ruleset. The Admin processing an official post is allowed to append to the post to reflect its new status. Anything appended to a post in this way must be placed in the Admin field of the post, and the post’s Status must changed to reflect its status.

I’ll assume in good faith that either someone else accidentally nuked it, or pie-is-square killed it without being aware of this portion of the rules(e did self-kill it first).

Either way, I don’t think we can get it back, so I guess I’ll pretend that proposal was there, and veto any proposal that pie makes that would have been illegal if eir post had not been deleted.

edit: teehee oops. I was going to CfJ this, but then I realized that the rules were fairly clear on the matter, and so there wasn’t any need. But I forgot to remove the CfJ tag

I’m not sure what happened.  It was post #3561, but it seems to be gone.  I can never remember: is it even possible for a non-admin to delete eir own post?

I forgot to mention that I also noticed that that the proposal had been self-killed while it still existed.

How long will this status last?  If the deleted proposal now can’t be adminned, it hardly seems fair to restrict P-i-S to only having one active proposal in the queue from now on.
