A rant about the diaspora

I started a thread in the diaspora section. The topic and my post vanished even though I didn't put them in a subforum, and now I've been flagged with a warning.
Why wasn't my question placed in a subforum?

Why isn't my question showing up in a subforum?

It’s because you started a thread that's been around forever, asking something that's already been answered plenty of times in the existing thread.
Before starting a new topic, you really need to search the forums to see if a similar discussion or question already exists somewhere else.
You have to use the search bar.
Just take the time to read through the main thread about moving to Germany in the emigration section and you'll find everything there.
Imagine what the diaspora section would look like if everyone just popped in to ask questions that already have dedicated threads—we'd end up with millions of topics with zero or maybe one reply. It doesn't make sense, and it's not helpful for anyone!

On top of that, the whole post was just impossible to read.

If you actually take the time to read the existing threads about moving to Germany on the Emigration board, you'll find everything you need there.
Imagine the chaos if every single person in the diaspora just opened a new thread for every question that already has an answer. We’d have millions of dead threads with zero or one response. It's useless and serves no one.

Emily Fowler52, I accept that explanation. I wasn't paying enough attention. My mistake.
However, I am not entertaining an endless debate with Grace Diaz76 (it's sitting in my inbox).
She seems convinced that everything qualifies as spam, including her interactions with me.
Surely I could have received a polite explanation and some guidance instead of being told I’m spamming both the forum and her personally? It was quite rude.

Just because something is unreadable doesn't make it spam.
Perhaps you simply struggle with reading comprehension. Which part specifically was unclear? And why didn't you issue a warning first?

Everything’s been laid out in the DMs and right here in this thread too. Can we please just lock this topic?
