There was a thread about cigarettes that got locked recently because there are people on this forum not old enough to smoke.

So your thread could have gone the way that one did.
 
yah but it wasnt locked...as far as i know...its GONE...i cant find it anywhere, lol
why would they delete instead of lock it??

edit: also, that doesnt make sense...there are kids on here not old enough to see some of the links and what not posted...they dont get locked...?

threads are deleted if the content is offensive enough so nobody can read it, let alone post in it

i wasnt aware talking about smoking was THAT offensive...??? wtf is the deal, O_O
 
It's so extremely hypocritical that the smoking threads get deleted/locked, yet all these threads about booze seem to remain open.

Because the mods have already made it clear that cigarette and alcohol threads aren't approved of and locking them is just going ot make people read them more.

Alcohol threads seem perfectly acceptable to them.
 
who exactly are the mods anyways? ive never seen mod under someone's name thing (lifer, diamond member, etc.) how can one inquire about why my thread is gone...?

The mods are anonymous.

For info, send a PM to "Anandtech Moderator"

They tend to lock the ones that aren't in good spirit...
