Someone tried using the board to spam electronics ware. I remember we were having some fun mocking how pathetic it was; but now I realize I haven’t seen it since. Was it completely erased rather than merely locked?
Spam threads are removed from the site instead of being locked, so if it was a spam thread, it’s gone.
I think you’re referring to posts by Jugnu. They were spam and I removed them, like we always do with those posts.
Then you fry them up, with a few onions, get out some rye bread, and some tasty mustard, and pretend to have a really good sandwich, right? 
In this job I’ve done some things I’m not proud of, but pretending to eat a spamwich is not one of them.
No, we’d just throw out the sandwich anyway, so we dispose of the spam and then just try not to think of it again.
It’s a minor point, but just to be clear, are these things deleted altogether? ISTR that you’ve said in the past that they are moved to a hidden forum that only the mods and admins can access.
They’re moved to another forum. I believe in the past they were deleted entirely, but that’s not the case these days.
