URGENT (I think) Disapearing threads on Forum 7?

Hey mods, what happened to the Dogpile andthe Last one to Post threads on F7? They weren't locked when I logged on thsmorning, they just disapeared while I was posting.
OK it just happened again ... I was deleting another Multiple Post (damn that server) and it said "this topic does not exist" and sure enough when I went back to the Forum the thread had gone. Maybe this should be in technical or smthg but I think it requires urgent attention.
sometimes the server eats threads. I've lost a couple. If you have the exact URL saved, if you repost in it, you can bring it back.
I understand that there are some forum monsters or trolls (or somthing like them) that lurk around here.
well, either that, or like forum 7 supposed to be, (conspiracy thread :)) a mod got to it before you could discover Max's identiy :wink:

Yes, it's a known fact that threads do disappear on the server. Sometimes they return in a few days, weeks, or months, but more often than not, they don't return at all.

Sure, that's what they want you to believe...

It's easy to get paranoid.
I had 2 separate but related threads disappear within 24 hours of each other.
One came back to life several weeks later. As for the other...? :shock:

LOL!
Maybe the mods have decided the practical joke has gone on for too long, and they're getting rid of it? Yeah... maybe...
Oh, did I wuin youw fun? Whoops?
Your theory is that they are slowly getting rid of forum seven, making the server fail so people can't access it and post as easily, and deleting threads?
Actually, my theory is slightly more insulting to the rest of you. But, your interpretation works just as well.
