Hiya guys and gals
I'd like to put forth a suggestion. When a thread disappears, would it be possible to let members know whether it's a temporary or permanent removal?
Two threads in the past week or so have gone *poof* that I had been posting in...and to remove the entire thread because of, say, one or two members breaking forum rules seems a bit OTT. Would it not be prudent to warn those members, remove their posts, but keep the thread alive for the enjoyment of the rest of us?
I can appreciate that a thread may have been moved to the moderators' section for 'cleaning up' or discussion. And if this is the case with either/both the threads I'm talking about (The Endless Poem and In My Pants), it would be appreciated if you'd let us know. Just a quick post in the Announcements section would suffice. You don't have to go into any detail whatsoever.
I know you've got a lot on your plates and work tirelessly and endlessly to keep these forums safe, clean and in good working order. And I understand that you are zapping spam left, right and centre. I think it's fair to say that I can speak for most, if not all, the members here in that we fully understand how much you do and appreciate it more than you think.
I thought I'd get that above paragraph in before you staffies do!
So what say you? A small heads-up to let us know if there's a chance our threads might return one day?
