He posted here about it and then he emailed me to ask if I knew who had done it. I have never deleted ANY of his posts. I pointed out where a couple of his posts showed up elsewhere after a thread had been busted.
Greg pointed out where he might have deleted one or two where they were replies to troll posts.
I called Gene and he knew nothing about any deleted posts. While I was still talking to Gene and refreshing the screen, we watched Rich go back as far as he could deleting all his posts one by one.
