Funny, but I thought I remembered responding to a GQ post yesterday asking how frequently court decisions got appealed. As I recall, I was the first (and only) respondent as of approx 3-4 p.m. CST.

I didn’t see it on the list of GQ threads, so I did a search for threads I posted to over the past 2 days, and didn’t see it. As usual, I’m attributing this to my incompetence, but I’m not sure how I could be screwing up something so simple.

The thread was removed because it had been started by a returning troll. Typically, when you notice either users or threads removed from sight, we prefer that you shoot an e-mail or a PM to a mod if you have a question about it. This way the banned user doesn’t get any more attention.

That said, I noticed the thread was only two posts long. If you’d like, you’re more than welcome to start a new thread on the same subject.
