Why do I occasionally get this message please?

It doesn't happen often, but on occasion, usually in relation to a thread that I have responded to and appears to have a new post. Has the thread been deleted - in which case why doesn't it actually say that?

I guess it is not really deleted, just has its access limited to the mods. That way, if it is a recurring problem or it develops into a lawsuit, they still have the original posts as evidence.

ding, ding, ding!

We don't ever delete anything. We simply archive them, just in case.

That's fine, but in that case it would it not make more sense if the message said something like:
"The post you are trying to access has been deleted or removed."
It sounds less like it's a security issue with my access.
