I assume this is a bug, but the last time I checked (1 minute ago), the topic about my Poseidon Browser has been misteriously moved from Computer Discussions to Customizations. Anyone got any clues why this happened? :S

Another simmilar problem happened with my guide on how to set a static DHCP adresss. One day it just dissapeared frmom the board...

That would be all. Could the primer please be undoed?

It was probably moved by a moderator because it was deemed as not in the correct section. It's not a bug.

Any removed topics you would have been notified about in a PM with a reason why it was removed.

What does a topic about a program of mine (written entirely from scratch by me and DBlake) have to do with customizations???

I didn't recieve any PM regarding movement or deletion of any of my topics. Explain that.

"... top of a modified Trident engine..." = Customised

You won't received a PM for a moved topic, only deleted. Chances are your topic hasn't been deleted, it was either never posted or was posted under another name and you simply can't find it.

OK I just checked our archive and your topic was there for some reason. I've moved it back to the guides forum.

Allright, though it's such an insignificant customization of the ActiveX control, not the entire engine...

Well thank you. That must be the reason why I couldn't find it...

Admins can do what they like, including banning you for being a smart ass ;) Next time I will.

But yeah, I was joking :) Just don't back-seat moderate :) That will get you a ban.

I don't know about the deleted topics, but I was the one moving the Trident topic. As Andy said, we don't notify members if we move the topics, and since the topic is a project with a custom name and modifications (regardless how small they are) it was fit to be in Customisations. Simple as that, unless you can prove the project is an official project by an official company - if it is then you should change the contents of the topic since it's then flawed.

@aLinux: Remember that we admins set the rules, and even if we're set to follow them just as all members are we do have the mandate to break them if we deem it necessary. No one here needs to quote the rules to us - we are very much aware of them since we designed them and put them on the forum. Also, you accepted the rules yourself when joining the forum, so you broke them by trying to point out that we broke them - with the difference that the admins have the right to break them if needed. You don't.

Please, stop backseat moderating, if you feel a post is wrong you can either report the post or PM the user making it. If you do that then at least we won't give you warnings for backseat moderating.

And a small note to other users (if you happen to see this post): be sure to post your stuff in the right section. There has been a lax attitude towards putting topics where they belong and this gives us mods a lot more headache when cleaning up your mess. Take an extra second to think about where the topic fits best.
