Windows 10: My Deleted Post - 'Remove Offensive Emojis' From Windows

BSD


Dear Community,


A couple of days ago I wrote a post requesting to remove from my Emoji list some of the offensive Emojis, at first the post was under the title "Remove Gay Emojis from Windows"


After a while someone changed the title of the post to "Remove Offensive Emojis from Windows" something that I have agreed with and it remained like that.


Today someone completely deleted the post completely[!!!] no one gave a reason, I would like to know why was this post deleted?


I haven't done anything wrong, I am simply asking to remove something that :


1. Wasn't there in the first place when I bought the product


2. This is something that in my cultural perception is wrong, and I do feel that I am entitled to choose what type of content to show my children and what not to show


Please tell me why was my post censored, if you feel that it's completely legal to show icons of all cultures and beliefs and thus being so open minded towards everyone,why is it wrong for me to request for some basic service according to my culture?


Please note that this post is being recorded

:)
