I've seen some deleted posts (not just my own) that I didn't find particularly offensive, or breaking of forum rules. I realize the admins/mods are making these decisions to keep some continuity in the thread and so it's isn't confusing without the missing posts and references.

I was wondering if the admins might consider creating a subforum/category for banned posts/threads (a purgatory similar to the one at some other forum). Here are the benefits of this, in my opinion.

[] can serve as a warning for what kind of posts or threads warrant deletion here, and can provide a reference for newbies who aren't sure what constitutes the offense exactly.

[] can be amusing for some. Strife, conflict, and even stupidity can be entertaining for and could provide even more traffic or repeat visits.

[] allows members to cut and paste good parts of their original post back into the original thread without having to re-write everything from scratch.

[] makes the place less censored. I think even some of the obvious offenses to decorum and forum rules, provide insight into what people really think - opposed to having things whitewashed to make it look like people agree more than they actually do.
