What makes it doubly frustrating is that there often seemse to be absolutely no reason for a thread to be deleted. And most of the time nobody in a position to offer an explanation ever thinks it's necessary!

It might be clear to the mods and Admin that the thread is in the wrong forum, or discusses inappropriate topics, or duplicates an existing thread. But if none of us knows that, we are left wondering what we did wrong!

Everybody who has ever posted on DB has had posts mysteriously disappear. Believe me, nobody is being singled out!

In the long run, often I think the lack of a logical explanation is sometimes more annoying than the disappearance of the thread in the first place!
