Good, or for some perhaps, bad news. I have received an explanation for my recent attack of Bot-ulism. You may now see my very nearly posthumous post revealed at:

My favourite method of dispute resolution used to be physical violence until I retired from the pursuit of the oval ball with my fellow mindless hearties and topers of legend. As Yeats said “Now must I wither into the truth” and be gracious in response as befits my years. As Falstaff said “Banish plump Jack, and banish all the world”.

Another post, here, in support of Jack. He does not post answers to be “liked”, he posts answers which give opinion based on the facts and evidence presented by the person asking the question. I have never found Jack’s tone to be rude or controversial - blunt yes, but I have no issue with that.

but I for one have valued your erudite and occasionally provocative views, expressed in a colourful manner.
I wholly support the words, above, of Terry Hill.

Wonderful, welcome back Jack. I have missed reading your contributions.

I have investigated this. Users can flag “inappropriate” posts and sometimes this results in a post being hidden automatically until reviewed by the moderators. That is what happened here. In other words, the process starts with a complaint by a user and the hiding is a temporary measure. Unfortunately, because moderation is now quite light touch, we did not see what had happened at the time.
I have now released Jack’s post and if it happens again would invite anyone concerned to raise the issue with the moderators / admins.
