Norn Iron Posted October 6, 2023 Report Share Posted October 6, 2023 I was the recipient of a new phone around the time of OTIB switching Internet suppliers or whatever it was. However, I've noticed that I can no longer find the thread which announces celebrities who have sadly passed away. I've tried to access it on my laptop as a guest but can't find the thread either. What's happened to this thread or most likely what have I done in Settings? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
View from the Dolman Posted October 6, 2023 Report Share Posted October 6, 2023 If I'm remembering correctly it was started by TomF and guessing it disappeared when his account was deleted following the recent forum migration. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would explain it then. I was hoping that it was something sensible! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Shadow Posted October 6, 2023 Report Share Posted October 6, 2023 I wondered if it was taken off due to it being deemed to be in bad taste. I quite liked it though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that how it works,so if I delete my account(a few will be dancing in the streets I know) that means the whole boxing thread will be gone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't worry, the thread will keep going as long as I do. My prostate cancer seems to be responding well to the radiotherapy I've had, so we'll be good for a while yet. 5 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norn Iron Posted October 15, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2023 I decided to re-start the thread but with a slight name change. I agree with other posters that the original thread was not only for news but a place where we could pay our respects and give personal memories/tributes etc..
