No flaming, no trolling, just a wholesome Q&A session that was about to get interesting.

Mods, what's the deal?

My best guess, maybe the OP turned out to be Kevin?

Whooooaaaaa. I agree the mods need to explain (it was a great thread!), but to wish that on anyone is uncalled for. Smile

It's interesting, did it maybe drop to the 18th page because no one posted for 49 seconds?

If the mods deleted it, then, well, they're probably holocaust deniers too.

I've been looking for this one, too.

I didn't think it was real, but I still posted in case it was.

I have my own theories on why it got zapped.

Hmm...mods are getting out of control in my opinion. It's about time they started explaining themselves.

But... if they explained themselves, we could hold them accountable, and that'd just leave us with a shitstorm.

Maybe it's better the way it is: Keep the boring threads and the crazy threads, and delete the ones which are kind of in the middle. Like this one.

I'm shocked about it too. Got to work this morning looking forward to see what people would say about my other point of view ie. the couple who lived in Taiwan. That thread is a normal conversation most women (95%) in Asia have at one time or another. Unless, of course, they are supermodels.

My advice in that thread was pretty spot on I think (well, in my opinion at least).

I really don't understand why a thread about relationship advice gets deleted, but some of the other stuff on here doesn't.

My guess is someone got offended because it had "yellow fever" in the title. Some people are WAY too hyper-sensitive!

Maybe if you stomp your foot and pout the mods will be more willing to listen to demands

There's no way it was that. There's far more racist stuff on this board all the time.
