mod question

when a thread is deleted is it permanantly deleted or just placed into a limbo-like state, where no one but the mods can access it?

Although a thread can be totally deleted, our practice is to "unapprove" it instead. The thread is then visible only to mods.

ahh, good. might i request a specific quote from one of my posts in a deleted thread? i am being accused of being a racist, and the quote in question has been radically faked to be something that it wasn't both contextually and in it's phrasing, and i would like to set the record straight.

sometimes our own history is best left hidden to us, so as not to repeat the same mistakes again and again.



i don't know if it applies here, but it's something my grandmother used to say. smile

Don't take it too seriously, dude...people are always twisting shit around. Sometimes they do it just to get a reaction; don't feed the beast.
