Posted on the scratch built car thread this morning and mine and several others posts have been deleted.
Can someone explain why?

It was reported to the mods, on the hope to avoid another Nazi Bunker thread.

As I don't know what the "nazi bunker thread" is can you let me know what rule I broke?
I was extremely careful to avoid name calling etc..

I'm not a mod.

It was reported due to another poster for basically un-necessary thread bumping. The Nazi Bunker thread was effectively ruined by some posters constantly posting asking for updates which would then ps off other posters because they thought that the thread had been updated by the OP which eventually led to the thread being closed and the OP providing no further updates.

I suspect your post this morning was only deleted to make it appear that the thread hasn't been bumped at midnight last night...

Your posts made no sense once the pointless 'thread bump' ones were deleted.

It was simply a matter of cleaning the thread up.

I'm sure that is true, unless of course you actually revisit the thread and see the pointless thread bumps are still there. My post however was censored.
If there are additional rules we need to follow can you please add them to the already lengthy posting rules Please?

The last post on the thread as it stands is from 7th December 2016. (Which I agree was a pointless thread bump but probably not reported to the mods at the time.)

Not to name names but user Farlig seems to be the prime suspect...

I did revisit the thread, and it is all true. The most recent 'pointless bump' posts were from today (12 March 2017). Some five posts (including your own) have been deleted.

Yep, sorry abut the quick prune if one of your innocent posts was removed, but bickering and abuse had started so wanted to nip it in the bud.

It was highlighted in one the the pruned posts that the bump was unnecessary at this point in time, as it will be bumped by the OP when he has some updates.

HTH explain.
