| Oct 24, 2015 at 5:58 | comment | added | Wrzlprmft | @JonEricson: Thanks for your evaluation. Do you really think that people would comment on posts just to be able to see them when they are deleted? If it helps, this suggestion could be regarded as a step-by-step unlocking of the see-deleted-posts part of the 10 k privilege (and thus fill the huge gap between 3 k and 10 k), e.g.: 4 k: see deleted questions you answered; 7 k: see deleted posts that you edited; 8.5 k; see deleted posts that you commented on; 10 k see all deleted posts. As for spam/offensive posts: Isn’t their content hidden by default anyway and needs to be unlocked by a click? | |

Thanks for the suggestion. Another question I have is "How often does this happen to people?" My gut says it's kinda rare.

| Apr 18, 2015 at 13:13 | comment | added | corsair992 | @Wrzlprmft: The vote counts argument was a particularly bad excuse - it could have been easily optimized to be part of the initial query instead of the aggregate total. It seems a bad idea to block useful and essential features from a large part of the userbase unless there is some (actual and not just perceived) good reason for doing that which outweighs the benefits that it would provide. | |
| Apr 18, 2015 at 6:29 | comment | added | Wrzlprmft | @corsair992: There could be reasons we are unware of, e.g., seeing vote counts is restricted to 1000 reputation due to the database queries involved. Moreover, while I do not see a reason right now why this should not be introduced on a much lower level, I do not think that this feature should be available to brand new users, who have yet to learn what a deleted post is. | |
| Apr 18, 2015 at 3:32 | comment | added | corsair992 | @MonicaCellio: The answer suggested 4k reputation to be an appropriate threshold, and I was responding to that. I don't think there would be much harm (and a great deal of benefit) in introducing this feature for everyone without any requirements or privilege levels. | |
| Apr 17, 2015 at 23:08 | comment | added | Monica Cellio | @corsair992 from the question: "I'm looking for unlockables that could be spread around reputation levels like tapas dishes." People seem to be assuming these would be 30k+, but it doesn't actually say that and I'm not assuming it for answers here. | |
| Apr 17, 2015 at 12:57 | comment | added | Monica Cellio | It's particularly frustrating to get a notification for a new answer to my own question, only to not be able to see it when I go there. | |
| Apr 17, 2015 at 10:10 | comment | added | corsair992 | This should preferably be applied for all users, or at least at a very low rep threshold (say 500 or 250). If you have interacted with the post, then it should not be hidden from you (along with potentially your own contribution). | |
