Tech: Strange Threads Happening

I opened Mudcat to find the Walt Robertson thread about halfway down the Music List. I opened it expecting to find some new posts but the last post was 2008. I opened it twice. Then it disappeared. What up?

It got spammed, then the spam got deleted.

TY Jeri. SPAM has a lot of fat in it.

There have also been a number of threads that were brought up by a spam post, the post deleted, and immediately someone attempts to continue/rebut the argument in the two to five year old last post.

It has been one of those weeks.

I don't actually mind it all that much. The randomly refreshed threads sometimes are interesting ones that I missed the first time around. I DON'T REMEMBER WHAT IT WAS, but there was one such just a few weeks ago. Seems like I threw my nickel's worth in.

Main thing about deleting, it needs to allow the legitimate new posts to stay in line. I imagine that it does work that way.
