How Maple Flow Compares to Mathcad (Feedback Comments Moved)

i created a thread about maple flow months ago and someone deleted it without explanation. I'm surprised they have this posted. in any event, I'm curious to see what people think of it.

"someone deleted it without explanation"

probably because it lacked 'Mathcad' in the title. We'll have to see how long this thread survives. May be longer because a number of reactions turn from Flow (that is, implicitly towards Mathcad).

I also had my post on Maple Flow "disappear" even though I did not praise Maple Flow in my review.

    Hmmm, its PTC's forum and so they make the rules. But I am not aware of any forum rules which would forbid to discuss other software - especially discussions on how this software compares to PTC products.

    And if a posting or a whole thread is deleted, then the poster(s) sure have to be informed about that (via PM) and also about the reason why this was done - that should actually go without saying .

    Maybe @Jaime_Lee  can shed some light on what from your description looks like improper censorship.

    @Werner_E  thank you for the call out!  The PTC Community moderators are definitely not  "heavy" handed on moderation.  The section of our Community  Terms of Service that covers "Solicitations and promotions and other commercial use" does require us to take notice and remove any overtly competitive post.  Productive-constructive conversations are always welcome on the PTC Community.  And @prop_design   I will take a look at archived posts and see which post you may be referring.  I see that one of our mods sent you a private message about one of your posts getting caught in our automatic SPAM system.  Also @Derbigdog I will check out your posts that may have ended up in SPAM.  Let's discuss this offline.

      That was also my impression so far, too. So I was all the more astonished to hear from even two participants independently that their contributions had been deleted (as I understood it without further explanation).

      Thanks for your response!
