It’s not deleted. I tagged you in it.

Thank you for the effort, I'm afraid you misunderstood me though
My own response is showing up indeed, but there was a response from some other user from 13 years ago, which was the first and only response to the thread (before I added mine), and it's that other person's response that has disappeared.


It's really not important, it wasn't my intention to make a big thing out of it; I only elaborated because Lacrecia asked for context

So no worries. Thank you though.

147 is correct.

To answer his question, at one time were were flooded with spam. We were averaging about 10 new spam accounts an hour. Typically they would create an account, put in a coupe lines which may or may not have anything to do with the topic and then put in a link for whatever product or business was paying them to be promoted and then the account would never be used again. The first page of many of the forums were all these spam posts.

While we cleaned up as well as we could at the time, there are still a number of these posts buried in the forum. The post you saw disappear was put there to promote a particular dentist office, who's name and website link were included in the post. The post was removed because it was old spam that had not been edited to remove the commercial promotion.

I am not even going to mention Akismet because Callie misses that one too much.

Time to bring back the "days" to go with our "old"?
