My Thread Has Gone

Kermit99

Hi
I posted a thread yesterday (on Relationships Board) but it has gone. It was a personal issue I was seeking advice on re how to tell my adult child that I love them, nothing medical was mentioned, nothing racist, sexist or anything that I believed was/is against the rules but it's gone before I got chance to read all the replies, the first of which were very helpful and I'd like to re-visit.

Strangely I have posted here once before and I PM'd a BG to get that post removed, it was removed and I posted the other thread, but now that old post that was removed is now there and my new post has gone.

Any ideas anyone?

Is there any way of getting back the thread I started yesterday as I found the few replies I did get to read really helpful.

Bit of a long shot but if google happened to scrape it before it went then it might be accessible via google cache.

In which case to try to find it try to think of any rare or unusual words or phrases that you or any other posters used, if there were any, and if there were any that you can remember then search for them with quotes eg "blah blah" around them to specify that exact phrase, if it's a phrase.

However if it was all just common ordinary words then you may have to think of some other way of searching for it. Maybe time and date might find it, if you can remember the exact time. Maybe, maybe not.

Tricky, difficult. Someone who's more familiar with google cache than I am might possibly be able to suggest some other pointers as to how to search for it. But, as I say, that's only if it happened to have been captured before it got deleted. I don't know how often the google spiders crawl about.

Thanks.

The thread title is easily searchable (ie words used aren't too common) and I have tried searching via Google and although a link to the thread comes up, when I click on it it just comes up with the MSE invalid thread message. Also there is no "cache" button underneath it for me to click on that.

Is there any other way to get to it ?

If you send a polite email to forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com, then they might look into it for you.
