Some posts commenting on moderation have been removed. As to the following: I gained a lot of valuable insight from members of an apolitical, community spirited membership. In 2019 things changed, my pinned topic on pigs was 'restarted' in 2019 when everything was archived and the topic's 10 year history was wiped unless people were prepared to dig for it. Archiving of topics is common for topics that have been around for years. For the most part, topics are archived as the topics have not had replies for awhile and maybe some of the members have moved along in which new replies to the topics are redundant as some of the members are not around to answer new questions. Maybe a better place to address this situation would be in the Forum Support Desk. //Closed//
