Default here's the post...

<a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/feedback/msgs/22805.phtml">deleted &amp; locked post</a>

here's what the post was...

<i>
<b>can someone do something about that guy? he's been posting link to his ebay ad for the past week...</b>

<small><b>User account number (aid): 48410</b>
Posted by Avantéix on 2004-10-02 22:10:27

<u>edit</u> <b>Status locked</b></small>

<a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/a4gen2/msgs/699312.phtml">here</a> in the B6A4 forum and <a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/s4b6/msgs/139031.phtml">here</a> in the B6S4 forum

plus he's making false statements in his ads ("Hella Makes <b>all</b> Audi Lighting products" - wrong!) and i don't believe these fit the B6 platform... so in the interest of the AW members can you can </i>(<small>edit:</small> take)<i> "care" of him... say until his auction ends... TIA...</i>

Default i understand the post is no longer relevant since actions were taken but why delete it?

just curious that's all... (posted the link above)

i was just trying to help both AW and its members by warning them against a suspicion eBay auction that a member kept posting about on both B6A4 &amp; B6S4 forums. the fact that the post got deleted while plenty of others on similar topics are not being handled the same way is just surprising to me...

Default Sometimes Moderator actions don't seem to make sense; but they do try and do a good job. Take it

easy on them as most are doing it as a volunteer and they get enough crap as it is. Overall, they do a good job! Hope there are no hard feelings, the body of your post seemed a bit jumbled to me. Remember; "No good deed goes unpunished".

Default Standard procedure

We deleted the post you referenced and then deleted your post so other users would not click on dead links.
