Dude...

Take it as a warning.. and move on.

We've tried to be as plain as possible.

You are not PMing the Moderators. You are creating a thread to draw sympathy and incite a response. It's just going to get you banned.

PM the moderators if you truly want to know.

Why did my thread get deleted threads always get deleted. It should be taken care of in PM's or at best in the Miscelaneous Comments forum. Not here.

If a thread got deleted.. why would you repost it 2 more times thinking it would be do anyhting other than get you banned?

gotcha. How do I find out who the mods are? I really didn't want to incite sympathy. I thought this was where I would ask it?

If I'm not mistaken, you can delete your thread by deleting your first post. I would suggest doing this, as the mods don't like babysitting.

Oh, man. It's true.

As mods, we have the option to delete select posts, and also edit posts. When I first became a mod, I would "clean up" threads rather than delete them. I would get rid of bad posts, edit other posts, and send PMs to all the offenders.

What a hassle!!! That's when I started hating my computer, the site, and Pappy for dragging me into it all.

It doesn't do any good. People still whine about the mods, and the problems still occur. All it did was give me headaches. Now, the only threads I "clean up" are useful threads in the tech sections.
