It's a mod only forum where mods take threads that need to be reviewed for deletion and such. All deleted threads are gone from the system completely once they are deleted its not like a comp where when you delete stuff it goes to the recycling bin.

The Recycle Bin acts as a safety net by allowing moderators to remove messages from public view, but not get rid of them completely. This is designed to completely eliminate the possiblity of any more incidents such as the BMW///M3 fiasco from happening again.

Perjaps when mods are doing mod stuff, the system should set their status to offline, and when they go back into the public realm, they should be marked as online again.
Just a thought - it may reduce the curiosity of people who are wondering what the mods are up to.
