Mick,

We had a great discussion here today about officials not paying taxes and child support. It was started by a new poster named fedup who claimed to be an official's ex wife. Now it's gone. Did you delete it?

A couple of hours before it disappeared, the thread was locked and then became unlocked. Did you do both of those things too.

Unless those actions was your doing, I've a sinking feeling that we were victims of a hoax. As the thread wore on, there was something that didn't smell right. It's unlikely that a brand new poster would know how to delete or lock a thread. I know how to delete one but I don't know how to lock it. Can we do that?

Bob
Yeah, Bob.
That thread seemed funny to me which was why I made my first comment.

Yes, I have the capabilities to lock/unlock, edit, move and delete any thread.
Any user has the capabilities to lock/unlock, edit, move and delete any thread of which they author.

I may have kicked the above, Bob.
Also at the bottom is:

Just click on some of that stuff. It'll either let you do something, or not.


At the bottom of each thread [on the right] are some choices:

Select one of them.
You will be asked for your name and password.
Moderators and authors of threads will be accepted.

With regard to fedup's original post, you probably know that since I was participating, that I did not touch it.
