Missing Posts

Hello!
I had several posts and a very nice discussion in a few threads with a very helpful guest agent, however, when I posted a query that worked for me, the next day I had found that all of the posts back and forth had been deleted.

I'm new here and I hope I did not do anything wrong or offensive.

The paranoid side of me thinks that somebody liked the idea in the query and deleted all of the posts so that he could steal the idea without there being a record, but that is pretty laughable in the light of day.

Whew. I am a nugget when it comes to online forums. I did a search and just found the one post. I was hoping to see the entire conversation because I can't recall the agent's name and had another question for him.
Thanks.
