    wasn't deleted - went to trash
    Better to regret something you have done than something you haven't.

    "trash talk" is a section for paying members where pretty much anything is allowed.
    sometimes innapropriate stuff gets moved there.

    Well, is not really paying, is more like contributing, its only 10 bucks and it helps the guys on the website to keep this thing going. We all get benefits from it, rides, information, friends so it is just fair to at list contribute with 10 bucks for the cause.
    I actually payed 20 just because I think I get way more from this place than 10 bucks worth.

    Not a shot at you, I am just trying to explain why people pay to be a site supporter.

    no thank you

    I am not going to pay 10 for having my thread deleted and sent to the 'trash" when there was nothinig wrong with it. Not to mention I needed help in that forum.

    bad error of judgement by the moderator.

    It's not been deleted or send to trash, it's been moved to "trash talk", a mostly unmoderated forum.

    And no, it wasn't a bad judgment. The thread was going downhill. The discussion continued in the trash talk, until someone miraculously saved it.

    You pay $10 to support this site, getting access to trash talk is just a bonus.

    hahahah that is just classic! I have noticed threads and replies I have posted magically disappear also on this site, so don't worry its not just you.

    But the fact that the whole thread is about your needs and now you can't see it. Well that's something I'll keep my thoughts to myself on.

    or this will magically disappear also!

    Well it's not the mods fault the thread went downhill. The nature of the question and some sarchastic responses from our resident peanut gallery made it inappropriate.
    Wow, I didn't know we'd become such good friends, because if we had, you'd know that I give **** before I give favors and I don't even give my best friends **** so your chances of getting a favor are pretty ******* slim. - Go

    Yes, you finally figured it out. It's all about denying people's needs...

    The whole idea behind a Mod is to moderate what is getting posted not just toss threads into the pay section.

    Their intended purpose was for racing, why don't you guys buy scooters, the handling ability of a vespa is still beyond anything either of you are going to need.

    It wasn't the mods that turned it into a Homophobic discussion about 2 guys on a bike or started posting pictures of Large breasted women and generally started posting off topic useless posts in a public section.

    John you my friend have amazing patience... I would have just hit the BAN 4 LIFE button and sent him on his merry way.

    By the way to find where all your post have gone do the following:

    User CP -> Your Profile -> Statistics -> Find all posts by USER

    You guys have to get this right /left wing / communism crap out of your vocabulary, the mods are simply trying to keep the site family friendly and keep it from becoming like the trash talk section. Oh and all the money collected goes to pay for all the extra bandwidth Paul has to buy primarily because of the hundreds of retarded threads...

    Before there was trash talk, threads would just get deleted. With TT, at least people can have some fun posting inappropriate stuff that would normally get them infracted, banned, etc. Mind you there's still no threatening other members allowed in that forum either.

    Ironically, it's a much friendlier forum despite not being moderated.

    To the OP, just start a separate thread and don't leave yourself so open to abuse. I've started some threads where my first posts said something like, "for those who don't agree with me, don't bother replying to this thread."
