Missing posts?

Skewie - Just went back through the logs as far as 31st August (thats a bloody lot of logs 1770 to be exact) and the only post of yours to be deleted fron then until now was 6th Oct in the "Bad prang at Bathurst" thread.

Cliff had more than a couple and Aussie Turner, well what can I say, you top the lot with dozens of posts deleted or edited.

We have the ability to hand out infractions which until now we have been a little slow on using, however this is one way of letting you know that a post has been moderated and giving a bit of a but kick to boot.

A member can get up to 9 infraction points in a 10 day period. If you get number 10 you are automatically banned for 24 hrs.You can receive infraction points or just a warning dependingon the seriousness of the infraction.

Sounds like fun to me - Auzzie you could end up on an extended holiday.

Oh yeah the points only last for 10 days and then they automatically clear themselves.

Cheers - Neil :)

PS Am giving you one now Auzzie just because you topped the list of deleted posts. and because of the post above that was edited.

oh!! Was I naughty??

:cool:

So they're definitely logged. And no others? :o:confused: It must be the other bloke living in my head, then... but then why aren't the posts he del'd listed? :D

I know I wrote at least one that has disappeared without trace... one I spent the best part of a couple of hours composing, a post in one of the ringed goblet threads where I posted multiple links to img's on Springett's site. Which is when I first thought "OK... someone doesn't like the links or it may be copyright?"

I dunno. Maybe it is all just in my head. It's been one of those weeks, so I'll just concede defeat, go back to my desk and hope it doesn't appear to happen again. [sigh]

mmm. are you sure about that? is it a new software thing?

i'm asking cos Al gave me a greenie then deleted it an hour later and i still had the greenie.:)


cheers:cool:

Skew ChiDAMN!!
you may be upto the senile activity of forgetting WHERE (thread) you posted your replys.
Don't ask me how I know that problem.:rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Ahhh... that might explain the hatemail from the the Greenpeace forums. No wonder I couldn't find my WIP on "finishing my Wollemi Pine fence & gates with Whale Oil and a Dolphin-skin chamois." :o

But yeah, I guess that's possible. I've done it before and a lot of questions seem to pop up over'n'over again ad nauseum; perhaps I'm just suffering deja vu. [shrug]

Skewie - Might be a good idea compose the bigger ones in wird pad or similar so you gan save them as a text file. That way you can cut and past them onto the forum.

And remember to hit the Submit button on the left and not the Preview button on the right then the back button on the mouse. Don't ask how I know this.

I've been doing my multi-post WIPs that way, you're probably right about using it on the bigger single posts, too.

Hmmm... I wonder if my new mousie (no, not a Scottish one) might be the culprit? 'Tis one of those damned 5-button jobs and a few times I've hit the "side" buttons with the keyboard or coffee cup, instantly screwing up what I'm working on. :o

Points are not worth anything anyway, but the actual reddie or greenie remain as far as I know.

Has happened to me more than once & I remember 'cos I've had greenies from mods for something that they thought was funny only to loose them again when another mod came along & didn't think it was PC. :rolleyes:

Oh well, it is the thought that counts!

That is what I thought too. ;) :D

Just to prove the point... Gumby stuck me with a red for saying I wasn't dead for the 573,290,413rd time so I deleted the post he had redded me on & the red went too. :D

Happy Birthday Gumby. :p

I am so glade I am pure and nothing has been deleted, except the one about the altar boy, the nun, the priest, but I assumed that it was because was devout:rolleyes:

You left out the actress.

Al :p
