Here’s the deal:

Pretty much, when the Community Director states there will be no restrictions on starting a new thread by new members, that’s definitive.

Now, to those who find their posts deleted:

The FlyerTalk Rules stipulate

12.1 Friendly, Respectful and Welcoming Link to this topic

FlyerTalk is a community and is intended to be a friendly, helpful and collegial place.

Please post in a friendly, respectful, welcoming manner. 'Snarky,' unfriendly posts will not be allowed. If you don't have something constructive to contribute to a thread, please do not post.

Unhelpful posts, such as "Do a search" or those that merely comment on the worthiness of others' posts or threads are neither friendly nor welcoming and will not be allowed. If you can't be helpful or contribute substantive content to a thread, please refrain from posting.
If a member chooses to post unfriendly, snarky, non-constructive content or discuss a poster’s motives rather than topic content in spite of the Rules, that member should be prepared for summary deletion of their post(s).

Thank you,
