Why???

Well, I think you could have said all that in a bit more calm manner, but eh..whatever. [^]

I don't even recognize the name, sorry, but I do not think any of the mods deleted anything.. I think you can delete your own posts..not sure about that, I will ask.

Nay..

Aren't posts archived after a certain time?  Speeds up the server tremendously to move "dead" threads to offline status.  Unfortuantely the search function is down.

Well i was trying to be calm but im a bit tired tonite and this upset me because he provided valuable info that i could not find..

I have been on these forums for longer than alot of people i just do not like to post useless nonsense and im a begginer so i have been doing more reading than practicing in the past year.  Once i figure some things out then you WILL see more posts from me i can promise you that.  Util then i refuse to waste others time reading a useless post from me asking this or that that just makes a thread longer and more difficult to read for others.  That 90 percent of the time is answered somewhere else on the forums.

I tried to do a search for archived links but nothing showed up.

Maybe he did delete the posts if that is possible but i don't see why that would be when he left 2 posts around.

I don't want to attack any admins but if they purposly deleted thes because of some bad language i will have lost alot of respect for them and these forums.




PS. I've never really been into all the forum things like happy faces and sigs and comments i like to keep things simple and to the point.  Thats why my profile is clean.  []

A mod would not delete a whole thread for language..we like asterisks..[]

Nay

Alright well i guess that answers my question then.  Thanks for the quick response and feel free to delete this thread.  I thought the admins here were better than that. Sorry to question your intelligence. They probably did get archvied and for somereason i cannot access them anymore.  thanks

Hi Tre232

We don't delete posts because of bad language, we edit the offending word itsself. We will only delete a post if it is complete nonsense, or if it's only purpose was to be abusive towards someone.

Generally, when you see posts by a particular member all go missing, its usually because they've gone back and erased it themselves. This can be really annoying as you'll completely lose the thread of a conversation, but it does happen from time to time when a member cracks the sads over something.

Regards,
James.

I have been visiting these boards for close to a year now.  I do not post alot of topics or replies here. This is only because that information is already contained in these forums somewhere else or it is information i do not have knowledge about, and i will not post on something i don't know myself.

Since there is really nowhere to put this post in the forums, i decided this would be the best place.

One of my favorite members was Red Dragon.  I came to the boards recently to look at something he wrote awhile back that would make more sense to me now, with my increases in understanding and wisdom through practice and experience, ONLY to find a mere 2 posts made by him still existing on these forums.  So i am wondering what in the hell happend to them?

I started to read a thread on the forums under metaphysical development and see this post..

Now if this is true im DONE DONE DONE with these forums.  He might have been a little on the wild side, but his posts were always very informative and helped me ALOT in my development.  If you deleted these posts because of a few bad words then you are IDIOTS!!!  The information contained was well worth reading a few words that really have no real meaning.. after all swear words are just words.. it is how they are used that make them mean something or not.  Red Dragon's posts did not ever insult or put someone on these forums down.  He was always trying to help out and give us information.  So to whatever admin deleted these posts, thanks for setting me and im sure other AP members back.  I REALLY REALLY APPRECIATE IT..  I LOVE MORONS, GLAD I HAVE TO DEAL WITH THEM EVERY DAY SO I KNO WHAT TO SAY.

You can delete this if you want but i will NOT be visiting these forums anymore if this is the case.  It was completely uncalled for and irrisponsible.  Whoever the admin was that deleted these posts should have his power taken away.

Now i also know the forum has been having some difficulties lately and this might have been the cause of these missing posts.   I am HOPING this is the case, because i thought the people on AP forums were a bit different than others.  They wouldn't try to censor alot of very informative posts because of a few bad words.

Thanks for any information and if you could in any way restore his posts it would be appreciated by me and others.

Thank you and have a nice day
