I think most are missing my point here. I have never advocated for anyone to do what I did. What I am advocating for is to have the rules clarified in the actual Rules section, so that others here in the future don't unknowingly make the same mistake that I have made.
I don't think it's possible for me to miss your point - but I don't see a mistake on your side at the moment (aside stirring this up right here, as the decision is already "over"), as well. Because the rules are unclear - that's it so far. And without a clear rule I would neither see your deleted thread as a "problem" or a "breaking" of the rules.
But I am - with as well dozens of years of experience with dogs, wolves and comparable (raising them up, d'Oh) on the side of those that call first heat as too early for penetrative interaction with dogs. And wolves, but that's another topic.
Rules are "good to have", but not unproblematic. To have them in a clear way, understandable - that's a good thing, fully approved. In regards of what you did: like I wrote - neither mod nor judging you for it, as even if my opinion is different from your decision, you did not break a written rule as far as I could follow the topic.
And without this the deletion stays as an individual decision of mods / admins, which is fine (and understandable for me due to the dog's first heat being in the middle of attention and not your - probably, I didn't see the media before deletion and don't know your handling ways - adequate and loving care for your dog).
As such it's quite an unfortunate situation, you miss your thread, others were .. negatively stressed? Angered? Anyway, the thread is gone and that's the status quo, as long as no clear age minimum is set in the rules.
That's why I wrote (maybe unclear, as I didn't write it extensively): Why don't you just post your experiences and loving cuddles, maybe the all-day commando training or whatever you experience (non-sexual) with your dog in a new thread, leave your personal sexual decisions out of it (after all many users don't approve of it, mods as well don't approve of it, tho - at the actual age of your dog. That's a reason which counts even without a clear rule) and begin to write or show media files about the sexual aspects in the second heat. Or the earliest minimum age, if that ever gets set into the rules..
As such all is fine and all can be happy. Remember: you didn't lose your dog or your experiences, just some uploaded media files and texts. That's not really important.
And don't care too much about "other users doing the same mistake" (or plain error) - they will still do this, IF a minimum age is set in numbers at the rules.. like always, there's not a week where no unfitting and abusive stuff gets reported.
Would seriously love to read about the further development of your dog and you in another thread, just: without sexual information added before she's at least in second heat. Or minimum age, if embedded at a later time - whatever comes later. As simple as it is.
