A question of morality

Here’s a moral delima for you to consider:
Let’s say there’s an online business which hires regular folks like you and me to work from home. Let’s also assume that this business has a message forum for their contracted laborers to communicate with each other and the company staff.
Now, normally, if a thread gets started on this forum, it’s there until doomsday for the whole internet to eventually find.
If I ask a completely stupid question, then 20 years from now, my grandchildren could stumble upon that question and think, “Gee, Grandpa was such a moron!”
On the other hand, if someone starts a thread about something that the company messed up on, then as soon as the screw-up is fixed, the whole thread evaporates.
Is it completely fair and honest that my screw-ups have to stay online forever, but the companies screw-ups are quietly erased?
*NOTE* This is a hypothetical situation. All events described in this post were pulled out of my imagination. Any resemblance to any actual message forums or online entities is coincidental - otherwise, I would have included links to whomever I was talking about.
