We all appreciate the work of the mods. This does not mean we cannot disagree with their decisions.

Where have I insulted any mod? Apart from the one exchange with Godmy, now redacted, where I said that becoming a mod turned him from a nice guy into something I can't repeat.

I seem to remember that Bestiola said she moderates several forums unconnected to this one, and that someone on another forum threatened to hunt her down. She found it hilarious.

I'm not for abusing Godmy or anyone else, and I certainly recognize that Godmy has been very generous with his time and efforts and we can all thank him his help.

However, I think that the question about PMs is a legitimate one.

Apparently he might have pissed off for good. I hope not as I can't see this place staying afloat in the long term without him.

At 3 AM godmy was messing with the databases just so he'd delete a PM to etaoin from the conversation he had already deleted?
Well, maybe? Given that Etaoin and Godmy had been having words, I wouldn't find it so surprising if Godmy had (understandably) gotten pissed off and done that impulsively. Humans sometimes do such things. I don't know if he did. But in any case something happened to that PM and a few of us are curious to know what, though we may never actually know.

Wait, what do you mean "from the conversation he had already deleted"? Are you actually acknowledging what Etaoin has been claiming all along, i.e. that Godmy did delete the PM conversation?

Godmy has done no such thing. Considering what he was receiving from etaoin he was quite angelic in fact.

No I meant "exited from".

But we've just seen that hitting Leave doesn't delete what has already been written. So what happened?

Something happened, that's for certain. If Godmy didn't do it, I guess it may also have been some kind of glitch, which happened to look suspicious, unfortunately for him. This forum isn't free of glitches, as we all know.

OK, because I'm an ehrliches Schwein, and I'm home now on a different device -- yes, hitting Leave will (eventually) delete the PM. I wondered if it was cached somewhere on my phone, but because I'm a bit hazy as to where the cache is and don't know an easy way to hard refresh equivalent to Ctrl+F5, I couldn't do anything better than turn it off and on again, but I could still see Pacifica's test PM.

It's gone now, from both devices. So I was wrong, but I'm admitting it, because although I hate as much as any unehrliches Schwein to be wrong, not admitting it won't actually change anything. Do you know, I never even noticed the Leave button before this. If Godmy did what is free to every member to do, there's nothing to object to. Weird, though.

However, there doesn't affect the legitimacy of the other issues, which nobody has addressed. Why was my non-serious thread in Feedback locked for not keeping to the topic that it didn't have? Why has this very thread been moved from Feedback, where it made sense, to this forum, which didn't exist at the time I started the thread, and where it clearly doesn't belong?

Has it totally disappeared, or does it show in that weird form the other one had in your screenshot, with a 1970 time stamp?

To me this thread doesn't seem out of place in the "technical" section. The first post on this thread is about a "technical" thing.

Same format, with the number of posts that aren't there. Which, for fact fans, is 4 -- in other words, my last message, sent by clicking Reply and making the box reappear, wasn't counted, although it appeared to be sent.
