They were never there in the first place.

They were only a figment of your imagination.

There are usually in the last place you'd look.

Which is extremely annoying.
 
I've often considered continuing to look for them after I've found them just so they weren't in the last place I looked.
What?

Interesting plan, there.  What happens if you find them again, though?

I hate it when I post something extremely witty on some "we mainly sell electric devices, cell-phones, Nike Sport Shoes . . ." -thread and it's hidden before anyone gets to read it and compliment me for how awesome I am. Unhappy

yeah right, last time I hid the openning post and left your witty comment you complained because it made it look like you were the thread starter.
 
 
 
 
...or if not you, then someone else, but you get my point.
What?

Speaking of this....I was just looking for the "Prog Chefs Unite" Thread, but I've not been able to find it anywhere. :/

Is it still out there?

It's a bonus until it's the last page again...then you would have to search for them again so they weren't in the last place you looked, and if it keeps happening you could potentially lose a lot of time in the process.

Now that I'm an 'admins', if I post something witty in a spam thread that evryone is having fun with everyone else runs and hides and won't have fun with me cos I guess they think they're going to get in some kind of trouble or something. boo hoo.
