Guest, Bee - The answers to your questions about searches etc should all be in the FAQ but basicaly - No they don't get deleted.

If you click on your own name in any post it will take you to a list of everything you have ever posted. You are on 90-odd posts at the moment. If you did not post as Guest, Bee though it may not find the one you are looking for.

If you can remember the thread title or even part of it the 'filter' may be more appropriate that the search function. Click the filter button. Type in a bit of the thread title and use the pull down box to limit the search timesacle.

If you still don't find it it may be that you have suffered the Mudcat equivalent of the Bermuda triangle being discussed in the 'Missing Posts' thread. Could explain why you got no answers if the post never actualy hit the board!

Hope this helps.

Cheers

DtG
