hey why is the deletions post locked? no moderator gave any insight, which I thought was required when locking a thread.
Also, I made another post to discuss deletions further and it seems to have disappeared..... what the fuck, guys?

It was deteriorating and a lock was probably for the best. Don't know about your thread though. I had replied to it.
-------------------- You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it. ~ Adrian Rogers

I don't know, but it was probably pretty much what luvdemshrooms just said, as for your thread about deletions, it was probably trashed because of redundancy. However , these are just guesses, and I would not rule out more sinister motives as well -- everyone is suspect...

"trashed because of redundancy." if a mod had maybe READ my thread, I think they would have seen that I was posting a theory that was different from all discussion on that thread. I thought a mod was supposed to "leave a message" when they delete or lock a thread. Oh well. Eff this

I said, "it was probably trashed because of redundancy." I don't know, as I didn't do it. Many times we try to leave a message if we lock a thread, but we don't always. If we are simply trashing a thread, then it's kind of hard to leave a message, but that doesn't happen too often.
I honestly don't know what happened to your thread, or who did it, or why, but we have a wide range of duties to perform around here, and we don't get paid -- not that I'm complaining about that -- but my point is, that in addition to the many hours a day that we spend here dealing with member problems, and answering PMs, and approving posts, and dealing with all the bs politics, we also have to live a real life, and do something to earn an income to buy food and drugs and whatnot, so sometimes we get in a hurry and don't always follow procedures 100%.
Again, I don't know what happened, but is it really a serious issue?

I thought moderator action was a "serious issue" around here, given the unfolding drama from the past several months..
The mods have gotten way more "serious" around here in the past few months; they've been on top of their shit. That's why I found it strange that somebody deleted a thread that was not redundant and did not leave a message or send a PM to express the reasoning behind the deletion.
Anyway; nevermind...
