The best person to answer this has first-hand experience due to having the highest percentage, the highest ratio, and the highest number of ignored questions on this website, but never responds to anyone else's questions, so don't hold your breath awaiting an answer. ~
By "naming" someone or by identifying someone, you touched the third rail. It's also possible that someone reported you, complaining that it was a "personal attack". (ThatsThat's one of the favorite moves taken by that ilk.) ~

I don't habitually whine and complain. Once, there was someone who directed a blatantly offensive racial remark when responding to me, and I reported the incident rather than engaging with the offender. Other than that, I take it in stride as an occupational hazard if and when someone takes me to task. In fact, I relish the repartee. :)
There is someone authorized to remove questions calling them personal attacks who, in my opinion based on experience, does not know what a personal attack is. I don't spend my time on it though. Seriously, there are things to worry about but that isn't one of them. For me. I came to a point in life where I realized I don't have to try to educate the world.
It is my opinion that the (usually baseless) claim of "I've been personally attacked" causes a knee-jerk reaction which in turn triggers deletions of posts. I have never had any of my posts deleted for the many dozens of members of this website, yet I have have approximately a dozen of my posts deleted that involved a particular member of this website. My crime has been that I offered a different opinion, an opposing viewpoint, and on occasion I admittedly used sarcasm. The ludicrous criteria by which a post is determined to be a "personal atttsckattack" is lopsided, flimsy and unevenly applied. It has been painfully obvious that special treatment has been afforded to certain folks around here, the ones (one?) who cries foul when not bowed down to. -

To answer the question: We are dealing with illusion, metaphysics and other so-called scientific findings. It's easy -When I do not see your post, it does not exist! And in reverse: If you do not see my comment, it does not exist for you either. Existance is in the eye of the beholder - so is beauty!!
