Maybe the moderators didn't like the "smell" of it. Hope it wasn't too offensive.

Now, why do you immediately blame the moderators instead of the hours-long outage and thread corruptions??

Wasn't really blaming anybody. I guess trying to be funny didn't really work to well. The link is still there that's why I was wondering. Different from completely disappearing.

Your thread is still there if you follow the link, but is no longer listed among the topics.

I suspect the other threads which disappeared are in the same situation, but nobody bothered to save the relevant links for them.

A common denominator: all those threads had replies made after FT started behaving erratically, but before it went down completely.

I was once able to revive such a defunct thread by booting up a PC which still had the relevant page in its browser cache, working offline in order to avoid any refreshes. No dice here, though


Tip: give your thread a 'fresh' start in 6-12 months, you'll probably be just as successful

You have to admit it is a subject that tends to dissipate anyway.

This topic may be silent, but it's still deadly.

I read the topic title as "My Farting on Planes is Gone!"

I was thinking that most pax would be happy about this.

I heard two small kids discussing the subject on a flight and BIg Johnny said "whats invisible and smells of carrots" ??

Dunno says Little Johnny.

"Rabbit farts"

Little Johnny then asks "do farts have lumps in them"

"NO WAY"

"Ooops I just filled my pants" says little Johnny
