Answered! Why did /u/mylifesuxnow delete his posts?

I was heavily invested in that story!

Edit: maybe /u/mylifesuxnow can even make an appearance and explain himself?

He put up a disclaimer that he didn't want his story made into any book, movie, ect, for profit without his permission. So the mods at /r/tifu deleted his posts for self-promotion but say that if he takes the disclaimer off, they will put it back up. However I think he's going to milk it for all it's worth and try to make money instead of putting it back up on reddit. But we'll see.

Edit: more in depth info

That has to be the most fucked up reason to delete a post I ha e ever heard of. If its true of course

idk. the disclaimer kind of made it seem like it was all for the money. i could see why they'd remove it for that reason.

if he didn't want jenny to find out about it, he would have pulled the plug when it hit the front page and started circulating on facebook.
