Before deferring you to my reply to Gedanken in this topic 10 minutes ago that covers all issues, I want to address a concern:

> Well, I am sorry but [GregStafford] claiming victory for [GregStafford] is indecent and disingenuous.

Then,

> I am awaiting for what I think begs for a public explanation.

Please go to the FPP's table of contents and click on screen names. A few paragraphs down, moderators are given discretion to remove abuses of a second screen name. You yourself acknowledge, "Well, I am sorry but [GregStafford] claiming victory for [GregStafford] is indecent and disingenuous."

Replies under a removed post, it goes to repeat, are removed especially when the top-level post that brought the topic into existence, thus spawning those replies, are removed at moderator discretion to avoid "orphans."

Last but not least, before deferring you to my reply to Gedanken in this topic I posted before this reply, deleted posts are ordinarily held no more than 7 days before permanent removal.

The administrator who removed the posts had security concerns (see my reply to Gendanken in this topic). Ordinarily, porno and other obvious violations are the concern in this regard (to remove outside the moderator tools which results in the post's data loss), but evidently the brother felt other concerns I cannot divulge for security reasons (but believe are valid) were a factor in his decision.

(See Reference.)

Sorry if I'm a little short, but the board has been a struggle to maintain lately and I'm ready to call it an early night.
