I posted in a Thread in Cafe Society just yesterday, maybe the day before. Seems to have been disappeared by the powers that be. It was a Thread about a former Playmate-turned-pornstar. It seemed legit enough, though one poster did mention searching the OPs history to find that the OP had been here for years but only made a handful of posts . . . all about this same pornstar. I don’t remember the poster of the OP nor do I remember the name of the pornstar nor do I remember the Thread title- all of which, I know, would be helpful information. Just wondering why it was disappeared. Was the OP shown to be not just a guy with a weird fixation on one porn actress but rather a troll who was toying with us? The OP seemed a little weird, but not an obvious troll. ---

Please contact a member of the staff (i.e. me) with questions like this one. > [@](#): > > How do I find out what happened to a missing thread or poster? > > If you have a question about a thread or poster who “disappeared,” please DO NOT post an inquiry. In probably 95% of such cases, the thread (or poster) that vanished was an attention-seeker – a spammer , sock, or troll. They’re out for any attention, even negative attention, and we don’t want to give it to them. They disappear, as do their posts. And as do posts about them. > > So, if you have a question about such, please email a moderator. DO NOT post your question. DO NOT give these folks any publicity, acknowledgement, or recognition.
