Am I going mad or has something disappeared?

Did something happen to the thread about the son pressurizing his mother to leave her home? I know it rambled well off the subject but does that mean it has to be removed?

Please tell me I wasn't imagining it!

No you weren't imagining it. I can't find the thread either.

The poster was a troll IMO.

Really? Nobody suggested trollism at the time did they - and it must have had about ten pages or so.

I decided just to stay away from it -- suggesting trolling doesn't always help -- there was certainly some trolling within the thread.

But posts do disappear for other reasons, and threads too. And now I think about it, I realise another long thread begun by someone who may not have been a troll, but that contained some trolling and a lot of unpleasantness, disappeared.

It's a bit of a pity as there are always really useful posts in such threads.

There were some comments which a.n.others might have reported to the moderator?

You're not imagining it, or if you are, I am too ...

I dipped in and out of the thread but didn't post.

I last read the last few posts a few days ago and they seemed to ramble on about blocks of flats in Glasgow (complete with photos) - no idea what that had to do with the original post so I didn't red any further.

Errata

Probably deleted as it had gone very, very far off topic.

Yes, I noticed that and stopped bothering to read it. It just seemed to develop into a series of arguments about practically nothing.

I too am a little dissapointed the thread was removed.

I hadn't updated the thread as I hadn't anything further to add.

I was waiting to see what developed and was going to update at a later date once we had some resolution....
