why my thread was deleted ?

i have started a thread a week ago in HTC Elf: Touch GSM section ,
i was trying to help other member with dead " tricolor screen " phones , as this forum helped me alot ,
now can i know what did i do wrong to get my thread deleted after 3 days of working on it ?
wbr,

Hi, I've taken a look and I can only see 3 other threads started by you:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=316726
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=317266
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=416687
I can also see deleted threads, or any moved to restricted forum areas.
Do you have any more details on the thread?
Dave

thank you for reply
i posted it in this section
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=374
and i remember clearly that my thread was viewd 38 times but there was still no replies
about the details it was posted like a week ago , and it was about dead elf phones and how i managed to revive mine , the thread title was
** Tutorial ** ELF tricolor repair [thats how i revived mine ]
or something like that
i've mentioned olipro in my thread but in respectfull way , maybe he was mad and deleted it .
wbr,

It's been merged with another thread. I cannot at this moment pin point the audit trail for it, so I am not sure which mod it was, to ask them the reason.
I think it makes sense to keep the "How to get out of bootloader" threads together.
Here's it's new home : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=347700

thanks DaveShaw for your help , i thought it was deleted completely , i didnt notice its moved/merged
i hope some one can benefit from it and i wanted to give something back as i toke alot from this forum
thanks again and have a nice day

It's normally best practice to either notify the OP, or leave a re-direct of a week or so, so that is can be found. I sometimes forget that not everyone subscribes to every thread they post in - I do that and if any of my threads are merged it's pretty easy to track .
I'll bring this up in the mod forums.

[Request] Stop Starting Threads Here w/ 'One X'

This may come off as OCD but I hope new posters don't start threads in this forum with 'HTC One X' or 'One X'. It is repetitive.
This forum is purely for One X (not the XL).
Get to the point with your title. Makes it easier to read as well.

well, putting HTC One X in the tittle makes the thread a little searchable friendly in the search function and sometimes in google search if users are looking for a fix specifically on their One X.

+1, I sometimes use Google search to search XDA threads. Helps to have phone model in title.

New option to pin posts

Hi guys. I'm here for a while now and noticed a very common problem: the same questions asked over and over again. Maybe a solution or a idea it's to the OP can pin useful posts to be on the first ones. That way it's easier for everyone to see relevant information. Maybe this thread can start a brainstorming about this.

That would help to tie in with good organization of the first post(s). Sometimes the OP doesn't add a post or two right away and someone gets in there, in that case just PM one of your forum mods and ask them to add a second or third post in for you and they can help with that.

[INFO] Newly opened OT Thread in the OT Section.

As I was scrolling through the OT forums, I noticed a few devices (HTC especially) which opened their new OT Threads there after theirs was closed as well. So I made one for us too Do drop by.

Mods can lock this if you want. This thread is not to be posted in, rather to spread the info.

Why i only see the 1st post of a thread?

i'm sorry to ask you a noob question but................ i remember that in the past time i used this forum as all other forums. every thread has 1 post, 2nd post 3...... and so on.....
but recently i can only see the initial popst, and to see every reply i need to press next button that's just aoutside a squared box where i see every person thatposted something.
i tried to check every setting on the forum.... i can't find a solution so see this xda forum as every forum..... with all post in one page!!

Which XDA Theme are you using?

Never faced this problem. .strange

@realista87,
Can you please show us a screenshot of it?
I know you said you went through every settings in the forum.. but can you please go through all the options under "THREAD DISPLAY OPTIONS" in here again - just to be sure?
And one more thing.. what theme are you using? (choose either XDA 2013 and 2015 if you're using a different one)

thank you to all. @Sami Kabir i entered in your link and i edited that options.... i previously DID NOT TOUCH them.
Then i solve my problem and forum returned to be normal with all posts in the thread. BUT...................................... it's strange. I returned to the old settings and now don'0t return like before.
i only changed Number of Posts to Show Per Page, from default to 50., and Default Thread Age Cut Off from default to all threads.
.....not i returned all options like before but problem disappeared. i think it's a little bug..... i use chrome browser.
