Since when have posts been deleted from a PH forum?

Without a lock?

Without warning?

WTF is happening with this place? Is there some new rule about posting in the lounge now as well?

IME some threads have always been deleted straight off.

You will need to ask a MOD for clarification, but adverts get deleted straight away, as I am sure very unpleasent threads would be too.

What was the topic of your thread that got deleted??

Cheers

No conspiracy and for the record I don't know what thread you're refering too at this point in time.

If posts or threads are deemed unsuitable they will be deleted, it is USUALLY the case that a mail is sent to the member to give a reason.

It was one of those stupid threads, for no reason at all... Fine work by the mods.

It's a play on The Moose's sign off... That's it. The murder bit was the title, and the rest was the content.

The lounge consists of 98.5% 'stupid threads'.

There are stupid threads, and there are stupid threads... Yours was the latter.

Perhaps the other 1.5% are really stupid and just get deleted. smile

Firstly if you have been here that long you would know they do get deleted, secondly by the looks of things it was crap anyway so it would have been deleted like all the other rubbish. Thirdly why did you post this originally in the Lounge? And fourthly you are bloody lucky you are still here after posting the porn link 2 days ago so I'd be very quiet and keep your head down for a while and don't give us any extra reason to remove you permanently from this site.

yep - THAT link was a brainfart. First indiscretion in 6 years.

I'm not sure what is wrong with asking about why a thread is deleted.

Ahm oot.

The OP had a very good reason from needing it removed, but hopefully he will be able to update us at some point in the future.

I posted a question about the location of the original poster regarding this and it was deleted pretty much instantly.

Now if I was trying to resurrect the thread in some form I could understand it, but considering the subject matter, I was just trying to establish if this was anywhere near my part of the world (Norfolk/Suffolk).

I have genuine concerns as some of the information originally posted in the OP is commensurate with certain events that happened in my area a few months ago.

I was not seeking specific information regarding the event in question, just the rough location.

I started a seperate thread asking of the OP's location, I didn't ask it in the the original topic.
