Was there anything within said thread that might not have conformed with forum rules? This is a well monitored web-forum.
I deemed it more appropriate there, and indeed you had seen several posts indicating such. I figured you'd guess that was what had happened. My apologies.
You can always look at your posting history. From your public profile, select the Statistics tab, and you can view either View all posts by xxxx or View all threads started by xxxx. As long as the post hasn't been deleted, you should be able to find it that way. That's how I found where your post had disappeared to.
