What?!? ..Erased post?

[Thundarr]

I just posted pictures of my Apes collection here, and after a couple minutes it VANISHED...what gives?

Did i break some sort of "rule" or something??

It seems to have been moved to here

[Thundarr]

Thank you!

Do you know why it was? I thought this was the 'sci-fi' area?

I guess somebody thought it belonged in the collection forum, it's one of those gray areas.

When I clck on that link I get an error message like so:

Agent of SHIELD, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

Is the error message in error, or are there hidden posts/threads not accessible to everyone?

[ABMAC]

Of course it's hidden. Lots of collectors are reluctant to post pictures of their collections on an open forum.

And of course you can't blame them for that. What's to stop someone from posting those pics on eBay and claiming the stuff is theirs if it isn't?

Of course moving someone's thread to a forum they don't have access to seems to be one of those silly mistakes that we are going to experience here at the new digs.

[Thundarr]

Never thought of that guys...hmmm...
My friend mentioned that if some grub wanted to, he/she could 'lift' MY photos from HERE and use it to fleece people on E-Bay....is this true? Should I edit them away do you think?

I'm more worried about potential burglars than about eBay scammers.

[Thundarr]

I'll be ok as far as home theft is concerned...I have a .22 and several swords and medievil weapons. (Not the chimpy 'display' crap at thrift shops, lol, these are forged...) Also, I'm cordial with all the grubs in the neighborhood and they know better.

If you are concerned about photo theft, use a watermark before saving them to the web.
