Why were my threads deleted?

I’m scrolling through my profile under "Find all topics started by Gerald Rivera17" and I noticed something... all the threads I actually created are just gone. They aren't there.

What’s the deal here?

Hmm... it looks like the system is pulling up all 187 of your threads at once. 🤷

All 187 Sahara topics can be found easily with a quick search.

Not really.
I tried that myself—nothing but "sorry, no matches" pops up.🤷

Since you guys are the moderators, I assume you can see all the deleted threads and posts too, right? 🙂

Yeah, we'll see, but they aren't looking quite the same way
these threads weren't actually deleted

Every time I click that link you sent, all I see is: "Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms."

Since you can't actually link directly to someone's search results, it just doesn't work that way. If you manually click on Gerald Rivera17's username and select the option to view all topics, you should be able to see them yourself.

That’s exactly right—I can personally vouch for both points. Everything is working perfectly and running just as it should.

It looks like these threads weren't actually deleted... turns out they're still hanging around here.

So, I just took a look at my profile... and turns out I've actually started 186 different threads... which feels like a bit much, honestly—though maybe that's just me...

The first topic—if we’re going by seniority, which I suppose is how this usually goes—is... Regionalism? (Thread with multiple pages 1 2 3) Anyway, before I actually got around to her... I had already kicked off a few other threads—things like... So... did anyone actually get intimate today? Just wondering... anyway... It’s on the Ljesa—not listed, mind you—just like that very first thread I started back when I first joined the Forum. I can’t quite recall the title... it slips my mind... but it was definitely posted on the Ljesa...

Just for some context—the date I started my first thread is actually the same day I officially registered...

So, let me just run through this one more time—when I, or really anyone else for that matter, head over to my profile and click on... Find all the threads started by Gerald Rivera17. I see 186 threads here... though I can't seem to find the very first one—or even a few of the others I distinctly remember being around...

The Forum is being tidied up. We are removing threads that the moderators feel aren't worth keeping around.

Fair enough, but why don't they give me a heads-up before they wipe something out? That way I could at least save it for myself...

Especially that first 😢

If I’d had any inkling they were going to wipe everything out, I definitely would have backed it up 😢

Is there any way to actually get them back 🙂
?

Because from what I can gather—if I'm reading this right—only my threads over on Ljesa were deleted

🤦
I mean, why are you getting so worked up over this?

Gerald Rivera17 said:Is there any way this could be considered valid? 🙂

There’s this thread from several years back titled "Did you have sex today?" where hundreds of people just chime in with stuff like "yes," "no," "heheheh hiih ROFL," "LOL hehe yes," or "OF COURSE 😢😢((((" — and the answer is no.

The whole thread is junk because Ljesa has been scrubbing the Forum over the last few weeks to get rid of ancient, duplicate, and completely useless threads.

I mean, why are you getting so emotionally attached to—well, the thread itself...

Man, life is just...
it is what it is😳...

The whole thing is trash now because Ljesa has been cleaning up the Forum over the last few weeks, getting rid of all those ancient, duplicate, and useless threads.

Look, I mentioned that specific thread, and yeah, I remember the title—it’s no big deal if you guys deleted it—but my very first thread wasn't actually that one, it was a different one, started back on May 9th, 2005.

The title was short, something like Just yesterday or whatever... Please, seriously, see if there's any way you can bring it back.

Gerald Rivera17, look, let’s just settle on this—we agree on a specific day and time for her to be returned, I’ll make a quick copy of it, and then you guys can just wipe it again...

Sound good?
