Apparently you haven't read up on the rules of the board. You can't question what the mods/admins do. Go back and review please.

The OP was asking in a very general, respectful way. I think the mods more have issue with questions about specific threads, which is why this one is still open. I believe the rule about questioning mods is to help protect them from public personal attacks (no airing dirty laundry on the boards). I am sure some people get pretty bent out of shape when their posts are removed, so it could get ugly fast if that rule weren't in place. They are fine with being asked privately in a respectful manner about a specific thread or post.


Edited for clarity of meaning.

I just clarified my meaning in my post. What I was trying to get at is that the mods know this thread is here, if they feel it breaks the intent of the rules they will lock it.

Thanks again, everyone. I got my questioned answered.

And to clarify, although I referenced a previous post (without name or topic) I only used that as an example. I was just wondering why a post would disappear (it could have been moved or something else that I didn't realize) and that's why I was wondering, not to question a mod's motives. I've been on here for awhile but I'm kind of technologically challenged, so I'm not always sure why something happens.

Prime example - the poster who asked the other day why he didn't have a little yellow chick by his post. It took me almost 10 minutes to figure out what the heck he/she was talking about!!! Never noticed the little yellow chicks before!

Opa - LOVE! LOVE! LOVE! Your avatar today! And the quote about cookies is great. Hmmm, maybe that's why my boss keeps the snack shelves stocked. I'm gaining valuable insight about my workplace on the chicken forum today!
