Title: Can a Thread just disappear?
Post by: monkeybomb on April 26, 2005, 03:39:40 pm: I swear I was looking at a thread this morning and when I came back it just vanished. Not moved, not post hell - just gone. Am I crazy? and can this really happen. :)

Post by: Shape D. on April 26, 2005, 03:47:24 pm: I've seen threads before that looked like they were headed to post hell and just dissapear. Its usually when something really bad happens. then it gets moved by those we don't speak of.

It was the bush coming out thread wasn't it.

Post by: saint on April 26, 2005, 08:47:26 pm: I have maaaaad craaaaaazy powers!

(The Bush thread's language and maturity level went straight to pot and I'm sick, so I have an itchy trigger finger today...)

That's not accurate. The board has been set up to prevent that.

Post by: missioncontrol on April 27, 2005, 12:34:44 pm: I thought the poster could only delete the thread if there were no post in it............

I know they can lock it anytime.......

Okay, that may be correct then. I hope that the board is set up the way you suggest.
