Default Deleting Threads

Hey, I have had two threads deleted. I don't know why they were deleted, but they were.

Can you at least shoot an email to the person when you delete their thread giving some kind of reason as to why, SO I DON'T REPEAT MY BAD BEHAVIOR.

Thanks much.

There's usually some discussion or a report in the moderator's area when one of them does something, but I don't see anything there. I'll try to find out what happened and let you know.

Thank you, ToSeek, one of them was about the ARMY boys I photographed in Dallas (I understand this part). Dang, those men were deserving of a photo, though. Creatures of such respect need be honored at any time!

The second was of Casanova.

Could this be a "computer" glitch? Like I had with not receiving emails on the Introduce Yourself thread?

Come to think about it, when hit submit after I had previewed the thread, the screen defaulted to the Off-Topic Babbling page. I don't think this normally happens.

It's just so strange that it would have happened twice.

Did the thread exist for any length of time? Were there replies?

Based on your last post, it sounds like the threads were never created --- which is a different problem than a thread being deleted.

And not the post you'd just finished writing?

Well yes, that would indicate that you had not, for some reason, successfully posted to the thread!

None of the moderators are claiming responsibility, so I'd chalk this one up to a computer glitch.

I think you all are right, the threads were never successfuly created. It's just odd that it happened twice. These were threads over a month apart, too. Scratches Head

My apologies for getting all worked up over nothing. It did freak me out a little not knowing what was going on.

FYI: The Casanova thread, yesterday, was "created" after Tribute to the Dead (title needs changed).

I should know by now, there is always a logical explanation to everything.
