About an hour ago, a newbie made their first and second posts. The first was a new thread on the new members forum and simply stated "Hi there, how's everyone doing" The second post was in response to an ad poster for a landscaping company, and she replied "thanks for the info, I'll give you a call" I then posted something that we all , including CNM

, would consider good advice, specifically "Beware hiring ANY contractor or service from an ad, there are a lot of scammers and inferior companies out there---check with TOTV or your neighbors first.
Within 15 minutes, BOTH threads were completely removed. I frankly cannot see any violation of the rules of TOTV in either thread, and the newbie may or may not make a bad decision in choosing services. And to take down a "Hi there" thread from a newbie makes no sense. So, WHAT GIVES???. (We'll see how long this post lasts)
