Ok, so it's definitely more complicated then a global flag change. I killed my posts manually and they were gone for at least a day and a half. So, undo deleted posts on any account that axed at least N posts in the last week? Something like that?
Well, if the posts come back again, I guess I'll just get in an edit war with them. Disgusting behavior.
Thanks for the data point!
EDIT: Huh, so now about a dozen have come back. I wonder if they'll trickle back in, and what the thresholds are...
I'm going to have to clear the account in batches of five or something aren't I.
