The sample banner shown in my above post appears when I view a message titled “so-and-so accepted your invitation.” When I click on the banner the posts show up with a red background and a trash can and my picture next to the trash can. However I have not deleted their posts. All I did was invite them.

Here’s a screen shot of one of my inviter users 4 deleted posts.

But this is the really weird part. **It appears the posts are not actually deleted.** If I search for or otherwise find the post they are NOT deleted.

Is Discourse making some change to invited users posts, pulling them out of some queue or status?

Also note this is not happing to every invited user. Also note that at least some of these users were imported from a Mailman list which is why they have existing posts.
