exactly.

And what was even more interesting was the post that remained, considering the content of that post.

Could it have been a moderator's post? I'm fairly certain they're posting in the forums.

no, it was someone (a regular poster here) that seemed to think we were insulting something important to her, and in the process, insulted something MUCH larger than that. The topic and discussion was much larger than the focus she took.

I know, clear as mud.

But it was if you were there.

Curious. Was it my fan thread?

You're being clear. Let's say it's business as usual.

The reason is, the people with whom you were disagreeing were pushing report on your posts. Thus, their posts remained until webbie got tired of it.

How do you know that? The same could happen in reverse - still doesn't prove who pushed the report button. I didn't see the thread but by your own words here you have now pointed out those who disagreed as being the culprit(s).

That's the problem around here - you get a report, you get a report and you get a report - in your face, Oprah.

If it happens use breadcrumbs to find your way back Marianne.

But I think you're okay.
