I can understand the question here, but I think the bigger question in my mind is why this is even an issue?

There is no issue other than to correct a website flaw.

Link;
And I thank you for bringing it up. It's not a flaw though - this only happened in the past couple of days, right?

It's because you had replied to 2 threads which I deleted in the last 2 days. One was from an Italian spammer who posted a bunch of foreign links to viagra sites, and one was from someone trying to scam an online cig store.

So, you did lose a few posts in those threads, but those are the only 2 threads I've deleted in months, and they just happened to occur in the last 2 days.

To fix this, simply don't bother replying to scammers and foreigners - I delete them whenever I find them.

Hey Linkup, I forgot to congratulate you on reaching 1000 posts!
Thanks for all your support with making Smoking Lobby great!

Now doesn't it feel good to make a complete rank worth 1000 posts, so that it's not so easily obtainable by the hoi polloi? And who are the polloi, and why are they so hoi?

Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard claimed the existence of a race of extra-terrestrial invaders known as the Hoipolloi/LOL

The John Travolta movie about them got panned big-time, but I liked it for some reason.
