Default Is there a problem with posts going missing?

Strange thing I haven't seen before: I got on email notification of a post in a subscribed thread, and when I went to view the thread, the post isn't here. Three other replys that appear to have followed the post in question, but not the post I got in my notification email.

For reference purposes: It is the thread I started entitled "Thoughts on transmission oil change", and the reply notification I received was

Dear Mark944na86,

Potomac-Greg has just replied to a thread you have subscribed to entitled - Thoughts on transmission oil change - in the 924/931/944/951/968 Forum forum of Rennlist Discussion Forums.

This thread is located at:
https://rennlist.com/forums/showthre...1&goto=newpost

Here is the message that has just been posted:
***************
Mild climate you can get away with a relatively "heavy" gear lube. I've used Mobil 1 75W90 (good in the summer, clunky in the winter); and Redline MTL (good in the winter, seemingly too thin in warm weather). And then there's Swepco stuff.

I also used a Lucas Synthetic 75W90 and it was like the Mobil 1.
***************


There may also be other replies, but you will not receive any more notifications until you visit the forum again.

All the best,
Rennlist Discussion Forums
Can anyone else see Potomac-Greg's reply in that thread?

Either an ADMIN, or the poster deleted it, if you make a post, click on edit, click on GO ADVANCED it will give you the option to delete your post... I also believe ADMINS have the option...

The log shows that Potomac Greg deleted his own post. As a general rule mods do not delete posts unless they contain very objectionable material.
