Question for admin / mods

We once had a thread re upcoming starter kits that seems to have disappeared.

Also last night we posted re availability of such under a new thread (or at least we thought we did) and that post seems to have disappeared as well.

System glitch?

Found the OP. Did not scroll down far enough lol. But yesterday's is not there and perhaps I forgot to click on the "send" button?

That's happened to me more than once... usually if I press the "Preview" button... then forget to scroll down and actually "Send"... It's upsetting if you've typed a lengthy post; as I often do. Mad

We very rarely delete threads or posts, only if rules were broken or we are asked by the author. Threads do get moved around though to keep things organized.

I am either getting old, need a holiday ... or both Smile

...and, no I don't recall seeing any new posts about the kits availability last night.

You could have forgotten to hit the "Send" button, I have done that before. I'll type something up, open a new tab or window in my browser and go off track doing something else. Then I'll end up closing the entire browser without ever hitting send. LOL

I keep Windows Notepad on my Taskbar for that reason. If I'm typing a lengthy post I usually click it up and save a running copy of my text there. I've done the same thing, and also have had other forums time out and log me out causing all to be lost when I send. Recently the NVengines.com forum did that after I spent 45 minutes thinking and typing, trying to explain something helpful to a guy new to Norvels.
