This is exactly the behavior we hope for.
Since we're a small non-profit powered by donations and run by volunteers we don't have a staff of full time employees writing and maintaining a knowledge base or similar documentation, nor do we have a full time staff of paid employees answering user questions. The whole concept of HelioHost is to be a community of web hosting developers helping each other with questions, and helping each other learn. The most helpful users get offered a promotion to enable them to help others even better. All of our volunteers, myself included, started out as regular users who read other people's questions and decided to start helping others out without being asked to or paid to.
If all of our forum posts are hidden and only admins can see them then it defeats the entire process, and would block anyone from learning from each other or even having an opportunity to help each other.
Another consideration is since we are a small non-profit powered by donations we don't have enough money to afford advertising, so the only way people will even find us is via free sources such as search engine results, or 5 star reviews. For instance, maybe someone out there had the same issue as you, and stumbles on your solution that was posted on our forum, not only do they find out how to fix the same issue that they're having, but they may start looking around our website and realize that we can host their website for them too, etc.
Another thing I want to mention is how the recent obsession with "privacy" hurts the internet as a whole. 10 years ago Reddit used to be a really great resource of community based help for common issues. Fast forward to 2026, and I refuse to even click Reddit links in search engine results because the plague of redaction has made Reddit, not only completely useless, but a frustrating waste of time to even look at, due to everyone constantly deleting our replacing their helpful posts with random gibberish. I understand stuff like "oops I accidentally posted my email address, and now I'm getting tons of spam", but removing helpful information that benefits everyone is just cruel. I honestly think Reddit should start banning people who redact their posts like that.
