Quick question - how to send a PM to other members?

Post 316206 by Flowerpower deleted for the following reason: Heya, I think you're looking MeFiMail (you can write to someone from their profile page after clicking on their username) but in any case this sort of how-to-use-the-site thing isn't what Ask MetaFilter is for. You'd want to either write to the contact form or make a MetaTalk post. -- cortex

Does depression change the way people behave?

Post 316117 by Braxis deleted for the following reason: Sorry, but this isn't really a good use of Ask Metafilter. Folks can help with a concrete question about depression, but not serve as a proxy for you to argue with or work out your personal relationship with your friend. -- taz

Ever done anything ethically questionable for Work? - ethics

Post 315897 by Spiderwoman deleted for the following reason: Sorry, this is a type of question that's called chatfilter, and which is generally not allowed on AskMe. It's also not okay to survey the audience here for article-fodder or to use their answers as a writing prompt or that kind of thing, just in case that's what's going on. -- LobsterMitten

an Israeli point of view - palestine

Post 315820 by stevedawg deleted for the following reason: This might work better if you narrow down what you're looking for as much as possible: is it books, articles, something else? It's worth revisiting the FAQ on this and make it more specific if you want to have a do-over. -- goodnewsfortheinsane

Golem “friend”

Post 315164 by leotrotsky deleted for the following reason: Heya, if this is a question about a comment on MetaFilter, post this to MetaTalk; if it's more general, drop me a line real quick with slightly more detail in the framing so it's clear to people sort of where to start looking and that it's not a metatalk question. -- cortex

Kramer (vs Kramer) me. - Parents divorce custody

Post 314621 by Armed Only With Hubris deleted for the following reason: Heya, unless there's an actual personal context grounding this (in which case that would need to be clear in the framing of the question so folks can work with the actual details of a concrete predicament) this is pretty heavily into chatfilter territory on a pretty fraught topic. -- cortex

What makes you stay committed? - relationships

Post 314568 by miaow deleted for the following reason: Heya, this is way too broadly framed to really work; if you have a specific concern/challenge in your own relationship, asking for advice or experiences tied to that would be okay, but just shotgunning the general idea of commitment without a clear context is too chatty. -- cortex

Looking for a professional editor, proofreader, writer

Post 314279 by meg_s98 deleted for the following reason: Heya, this sort of specific looking-for-a-person-to-hire thing isn't a good fit for Ask MetaFilter. If you are looking for more general how-to-look resources/guidances, reframing and trying again along those lines would be okay; otherwise, for the job listing aspect itself, it'd be okay to make a post instead over on MeFi Jobs. -- cortex
