OK, let's unpack this a bit then. First of all, I said it was a side issue, not a non-issue. In other words, there are a lot more important issues than the speculations of you and a handful of other people as to whether WPN and/or Thrash deleted more posts than you believe they should have. Did they delete posts about bots? Yes, absolutely. Is it even in the top 5 concerns people do or should have about what's been discussed in this thread? No, I don't think so.
You say you don't know what I'm trying to accomplish by spinning this. Hmm. I wonder what that could mean? Do you think, just maybe, this might be because there is nothing for me to accomplish by doing so? Perhaps I'm not actually attempting to spin anything? Here's what I was trying to do - put a stop to the ridiculous derail a few of you had taken this thread on.

You promise? Really?? I don't think you have any idea how it would look. TBH, I think if there was an easy way for me to figure out exactly how many posts and threads about bots had been edited or deleted, versus what remains, you'd be looking pretty silly. But I won't promise that, because even though I'm able to find out more than you can, I haven't painstakingly gone through every thread to be 100% confident of what I think is true. I like to be pretty confident about something before I'll promise what the outcome will be. But that's just me.

OK. So, what is?

Yeah, you keep saying that, and then you keep on besmirching our names. Like you continue to do below.

I'm sorry to tell you that you're not going to get a Warren Commission on this. The only people who can even see what posts and threads have been deleted are mods of that forum, or admins. Pretty sure none of them are going to be spending countless hours trying to find deleted posts for you. I'll help you out as best I can, if you have some specific threads you'd like me to check on. But apparently I'm in on it, and spinning it to accomplish you don't know what, so perhaps that's no help to you.

OK. Can you tell me what threads they might have been in?

Oh. So now that doesn't tell the story either. So are we looking for fingerprints, DNA samples, blood trails, or...?

Oh, look, another swipe at my integrity. Considering that "this really isn't about [me]", you seem to do this pretty often.
