Please stop doing it, it's incredibly boring.

If it got closed in the P&P and you don't know why, may i suggest because in all likelyhood it was st, afterall the P&P was created to take some of the interesting but non car related threads out of the Gassing station, sadly now it's devolved into a communal wkfest where it's commonplace to see no end of crap threads started.

Now i'm not preaching from my moral high horse, as i'm as guilty as some of you for posting crap, but i do know that if a thread gets closed it's because it's not worth the bandwidth.

So please stop coming in here like children and moaning that your thread got closed and take it as a hint that perhaps you want to be posting in some of the other forums and participating in what used to be one of the best places to come on the web and with everyones help will be once again.

When a thread is deleted the mods have a little box that we can type a message in to the original poster of the thread.

This message explains why the thread was deleted and is automatically e-mailed to the registered e-mail address.

You wouldn't believe how many times I've written a nice long letter explaining, only for the mail address to not be valid anymore, or them not check it for 5 days.

Why didnt the mod send me a message then. I don't know why I had a recent post deleted, I was banned for 24 hours too!

It was on the hitler thread (according to the notes in your profile that we make), but doesn't state specifics.

I believe we should explain every action to the individual (though I myself admit I'm guilty of not doing it sometimes as it can take time to do, especially when you're chopping up a thread).

How are you to know why if nobody tells you?
