I want to hear from community and the mods if possible. I would appreciate anyone evalauting deleted post in OP.
I'm not the one that reported your post but if I have to guess, I would say it has to do with the second line in your post:
- You mentioned seeing OP of that thread updating his/her post after you commented
[his/her edit was prior to yours], therefor your post counted as low-key spam since you repeated an answer
[even if both updates were too close]...
- I know your intention was to help and not to spam.
- This is quite similar to a habit that a lot of higher-ranked members have and that is posting things like "the above user beat me [and other similar things]"...
- Such posts doesn't add any value and should be taken down since they count as repetitive posts (unless they have other parts in them that are missing from previous posts).
Your moon icon does work. I can see the icon on your thread title.I think copy paste is the only way to do that. I have not seen any other option to add such an icon in the title.
Edit- Did not notice your edit 
After my post, I have seen that author has edited his post and wrote that his method was working.
