I, too, noticed that a lot of threads, including what would be otherwise considered completely trivial and civil on topic threads, apparently vanished without a trace. I've lost about 20 of my posts because of this, however, that was nothing compared to about 500 to 1,000 posts lost by some of the compulsive veteran posters here.
We lost several thousand posts and hundreds of threads in last year's hacking and crashing.

Is that why my "Reasons to Believe" thread in the Dark Cellar disappeared? I thought it was getting too controversial as it seemed to be the only one missing from there after the attack. Or maybe I just can't find it. It had gotten a lot of replies, but they were starting to wander. I guess it doesn't matter in the long run.

I just did a rather thorough search of the archive and cannot find any thread by that name. Perhaps it had a different title. Otherwise, I doubt it was the only one missing - hackers in that kind of attack generally do not discriminate in what they F-up.
I think I know the one your talking about. Was that the one where the original poster wanted to know what was the best age to castrate children? I recall you raised a red flag and I don't think you were the only person to find it just a bit, hmm... shall we say creepy? Not saying that the OP was really considering actually castrating small children, but I suspect that thread may have been removed to be on the safe side.

Yeah, I know where that red flag needed to go. But I rectum he would not have found it too pleasant.
Some of those bastards don't need castrated as badly as they need decapitated, lacking the technology for brain transplants...
