Like how threads that are over 80 posts long can just disappear. Who would delete such threads without explaination?

I was wondering the same thing! Where did that thread go? I know none of the Moderators would delete it, they would have just locked it.

Well, IW was down for some time not too long ago, perhaps a few threads got wiped?

I'm glad you asked the question, Donut. I was wondering what happened to that thread myself.
Grojlach, the thread didn't get too out of hand that I could see. There were some differences of opinion and a few strong Reply's, but nothing out of line that I saw. And, as Larry pointed out, the Mods would've have just LOCKed the thread...not deleted it. I did notice that this thread seem to "disappear" once before (about a week ago) and then it showed back up. I'm sorry it's gone, there was some good debating going on.

No, the thread wasn't locked down that I'm aware of. Last time I saw it, everything looked ok. Well, could be a glitch, could be Choc had a midnight munchie attack and ate it, the author could have deleted it. Any number of possibilities, dear breakfast pastry! [img]smile.gif[/img]
