Heads-up on deleted topics emails

[andy]

Phil has posted a topic here about a forum clean-up. I have agreed, along with st3ph3n to help out with this.

You might receive emails stating you have had topics deleted and wonder what the hell they are about. The current forum solution means we MUST give a reason when deleting a topic and the creator of that topic is automatically sent an email with the reasons for deletion. It's not ideal, but it's the way it is...for now.

We are ONLY deleting old topics that consist of  "I touch goats" type content and topics in the "For Sale" and "Wanted" forums that are older than three months. We are NOT deleting topics that are of value to the community (even if they started off as I touch goats threads)

Please don't worry if you get an email saying a topic has been deleted. We're starting with oldest first and some of them go back to 2001 so if you get an email it is probably about a topic you started so long ago you forgot you even posted it! []
