From the Forum Rules:

Why has my post/thread been removed without telling me?


Posts and threads are deleted so we're no longer "publishing" them. You may have posted it, but once we're made aware of it - we are legally liable too, as the publisher. When something is deleted, it's removed from public view but it's still viewable by the Forum Team and can be reinstated if it needs to be. It won't show up in a forum search.

We never contact people when their posts are deleted. The sheer number of posts removed every day means it's simply impossible to contact everyone.

The Forum Team won't respond to aggressive emails demanding to know why a post/thread's been removed but if you send a polite email asking, it may review or explain the decision where possible (sometimes legal reasons prevent this). If you're still unhappy, email [EMAIL="webmaster@moneysavingexpert.com"]webmaster@moneysavingexpert.com[/EMAIL]

they were definately not spam.

looks like the fourth one, re. Africa funds has gone too. i don't get it. i wasn't spamming anything, i wasn't even telling anyone what i was doing, i was asking what funds other people use or think look appealing.

not sure whether i can use the forum to bounce ideas around, or not.

Why not put them on 1 thread instead of clogging up the whole board. That way if people want to respond they can to all on 1 thread.

I really woundn't advise posting again the same content, whether on 1 thead or more, not until you discover the reason why the original threads were removed.

they were each re. separate topics....the idea being that a discussion re, say, India, was specific to India.

is that not welcome here?:think:

i didnt repost any content.

and that is why i am asking. i thought i would be welcome.
