How do you know if your thread was deleted?

I posted a really helpful video on rope coiling, which maybe someone accidentally flagged.
Or possibly the cabal doesn't want the technique getting out to the masses...I don't know. Regardless, it has disappeared. If anyone finds it, I'd be glad to offer a six pack for it's safe return.

Didn't see anything in the flagged stuff.

Mark,
Saw your post about the 'Kick coil' last night, funny stuff!
Don't know why they would feel it needed to be removed, unless it was one of the admin's in the video?
Edit-
Someone posted a link right after my last post on 'Female dirtbag climber' that was titled 'all you need to know about guns'. That too was deleted last night. Seems like that video was deleted while I was watching it. When I returned to the post the video link and author were removed?

I think there were some glitches going on the other day. I posted a picture of how to tie off a chicken head and it never even showed up. There was a link to the post in the "contributions" section of my personal page, but the post was absent from the thread. I also noticed a lot of posts around that were totally blank w/ no content. Maybe a few good posts disappeared while they were trying to fix the bugs.

4/14/13 there was a database crash. Andy had to revert to the nightly backup (3am), so any posts during this perhaps 12-15 hour window were lost (though they were scrambled anyway).

That may be the explanation. BTW, this happens from time to time.

Consider reposting it.

Thanks!
