Rookie Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 I had a thread called Twister crash...funny! Video included.. get deleted, it was not nasty or offensive? it had 2 replies before it got deleted. And the deleter did not even give me a reason why!!! if thats how it is here then i will go elsewhere and not buy the magazine anymore!

Mark R Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Rookie, must be a reason......but then again it can happen on forums that some threads lose posts or suddenly drop off then come back again....chill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rookie Posted June 11, 2010 Author Share Posted June 11, 2010 trust me it is deleted coz i got it bookmarked and when i goto bookmarks its not there and when i use the notification email it says: Thread Sorry, but the thread cannot be found. All it had was a video of my brother flying and crashing his heli into a turtle sandpit......we'll see what response if any i get from mods!

Biggles' Elder Brother - Moderator Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Rookie, I saw the thread - and yes it does seem to have dissapeared! But in my experience of this forum the mods don't remove stuff without a reason and never without saying why. So unless you have a PM from one of the mods saying why they deleted it - I'd be more inclined to suspect gremlins than conspiracy BEB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rookie Posted June 11, 2010 Author Share Posted June 11, 2010 Ok i have no PM so if i get told i can try again then i shall. PS. did u watch the video? Edited By Rookie on 11/06/2010 22:47:17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen Grigg Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Yes I think it was deleted because of cruelty to a Turtle play sand pit,is the heli repairable,I was surprised at the damage.At the W/E a club member lost control of his ,it went over some 40 ft trees and when found was totally undamaged Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rookie Posted June 11, 2010 Author Share Posted June 11, 2010 Fully repairable, cost about £40...your club mate must be very lucky lol Edited By Rookie on 11/06/2010 23:21:20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Ashby - Moderator Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 Not sure why Rookie, not something I was aware of, have asked Tim. We usually advise the poster unless it's spam or a fairly obvious infringment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Mackey Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 Sorry Rookie - I did delete it yes, and forgot to PM you. I have done so now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 Probably because "Crash & Funny" ! Not exactly a promotion of the hobby is it ? BB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Mackey Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 Yes that was the main reason, and because the thread was beginning to attract negative comments such as "not funny and not clever". I have PMd Rookie now - which I would have normally done immediately, but forgot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
