I am looking for it now. I know I didn't delete it and I don't think addy1 did either.

Approximately how many pages were there?

A front end search did not produce any results. I will now move to the back end and search through the Admin back end portion of the site software.

I did the same thing on the back end using BtheExplorer's profile and no posts in that thread showed up.

I'll use some recovery tools and keep looking.

I don't think it was bots. All they do is post spam. They don't have a profile to delete anything on the forum.

I don't think I deleted it

The only threads deleted were generated by bots. Ie they were the thread starter.

It would not have been in the delete list.

The bots buried in a thread were just a post delete.

But maybe I did, if so, so sorry.

No big deal, I can happily start a new one, but I wanted to make sure there wasn't an intentional purpose for deleting it.

I couldn't find it either...wanted to show spillway maintenance I did today....clearing out brush, bushes, and small trees. This is a task that needs to be done every 2-3 years here to keep the overflow integrity.
