Re: Nipped in the Bud

Its as simple as this, last night I inadvertently clicked on last page (I think on General Chat) last page being first page chronologically. There was obviously a thread from 2009, which about 15 responses (14 responders I'd never heard of), the thread intrinsically was still current, so I made a reply, an earnest reply, not a contentious, cynical, incitive reply, and saw the response come up on the screen, then two minutes later it was gone, Nipped in the Bud!!!!

Was it late at night Spitty?
I do believe the forum is 'haunted' with some posts, and even members mysteriously disappearing in the wee small hours never to be heard of again...........

What??? Are you saying that some of the old members come back at night? What about Aussie ghosts, is there still a time difference?

Yes I have seen that.
I also saw members I have never seen post all logged in at the early hours.
It happens when I am in another country, with a big time differences.
I think they come to borrow ideas.
I have seen some of my threads on other forums that I have never belonged to.
Same with some other threads.
I call them The Borrowers.
True btw.
