I posted a question 30min ago, and it's gone. This is ridiculous.

I guess it depends on the question. Maybe it was considered too offensive or could be construed as a volatile subject. Could be many reasons.

It could have been moved to another section. What was it about?

The only posts we've deleted this morning were spam or gibberish nonsense. The OPs post was one or the other.

Chris, you're succinct and to the point as always

I heard it was actually a working formula for free energy, and that the government intercepted it. They then scrambled it in such a way as to make it look like volatile gibberish of the homework style.

I didn't see your previous, but you're quite right. This question is ridiculous.

I guess this is one reason to register.

Without a name, the CR4 admin (Chris) can't trace which one you posted and why it disappeared.

Another possibility is that you didn't submit it.

After you type in your question, you click "Preview Comment". After checking the post, you click "Submit this Comment" or "Edit your Comment". Perhaps you exited the page before you submitted. Maybe.
