not sure who's doing it......but why is this one here in the LCD section?

Have you checked the recycle bin? Most threads and posts don't get deleted without good reason, they get recycled instead.

What did you say in your posts that would've got them deleted?

I didn't do it.......but I did read the new one and the guy who started the old one owned up to deleting his own thread. You can do that you know....just delete your first post in a thread, and the whole thing disappears.

If a thread or post is 'deleted', it is gone forever.

If a Mod or Admin feels a post or thread is inappropriate, they can delete it or close it and move it to the Recycle Bin (which is the standard thing to happen).

But, a deleted post or thread does not go to the Recycle Bin.

not all threads go off on a tangent, however it's not entertaining when they seem to deteriorate into random ramblings. Heck in all honesty if the original poster wanted to, as soon as he got the answer to his question he could delete the whole thread...as for leaving constant ramblings, and obscure BS....well let's just say that if we can help it we won't.

when a thread goes to the recycle bin you keep your post count but when it is deleted those posts are subtracted
