If, in the view of a moderator, a thread violates some rule and they delete it soon after its posted, that's one thing. On the other hand, a thread which has been live for several days and has dozens or evens hundreds of views and many replies suddenly disappears or gets locked, that in my view is very different. Why does a thread which appears to have violated no rule on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday suddenly violate a rule on Thursday. A good discussion is a good discussion. I'm not speaking of any particular thread. Just a general observation (or a question).
(disclaimer, several months ago I had a thread deleted or locked (can't remember) after several days many, many views and several replies. My original post appeared on "another forum" verbatim the same day. (Yes, I know who it was.) That thread garnered over 420 views and 39 replies before it died. Hmmmmm, may have been a good discussion. I just got a Facebook message from a friend asking me if she should post this. I told her I would.) Any thoughts, anyone?
