Default general question

im curious why some threads just get randomly deleted???? i had posted a thread in appearence and someone ******* deleted it and i was posting replies to someone in eastern members about a car they were looking at and all of a sudden that one is gone also this is a forum for people to post thoughts,and views and express themselves about things isnt it ? i made a thread in appearence about why people bring dirty cars to car shows and someone didnt like it...maybe they had a dirty car that got brought to a car show ...who knows?

If a thread is percieved to be argumentative, or an argument starts in a thread it will get locked. If it is no longer there, it might have been in a forum it does not belong in, and moved to where it does.

A thread getting deleted may have nothing to do with the original poster, but rather where it goes with those who post in it.

Used to be a more open enviornment where members could have discussions/arguments whatever. Now it's kinda not.

i know everyone loves to blame the moderator's but it is not always us, the original poster can also delete their post...

FYI...the post about the car someone was looking at was deleted by the person who created the post...

Sounds like you have a guilty conscience

We know you are just doing your jobs-no one blames you guys.
