posts disappear?

[twiggymm777]

hey everybody. quick question.. do posts just disappear sometimes? or did somebody delete my topic? a week or 2 ago I posted a topic about a broken pick in a trunk lock. i went to look at it a day or 2 later and it was gone..

Your thread was moved to the auto section in the advanced access forum by the mods!
Did you get it open in the end?

Ooo ok. Thank you. I've been looking everywhere for it haha. Will I still be able to access it since it's in the advanced access forum? And yea, I'm still able to get it open. I meant to elaborate on the topic a little more. It wasn't as big of a deal as it sounded. There are still a lot of different ways to open the trunk without using the key. So yea its still working fine, but the pick is still stuck unfortunately... I'll go into more detail once I find the forum

Thanks for the help

Advanced forums require special access. The rules are down there for you to read, but basically you need to be here for X amount of time with Y number of posts and even then your post history is reviewed to make sure you're a productive member of the forum.

It's not hard to get in, though, just requires a little patience and no fighting.

I moved it due to some advanced information that kept creeping into the thread, but that wasn't your fault. The consensus on repairing the lock was "call a locksmith."

Oo ok. Thanks guys. I guess I'll just have to work on posting more and working towards that advanced access. And I'm sure I could have fixed it just by taking out the lock. But because it wasn't my vehicle, the owner didn't want me to do anything with it unless it stayed in place. Stupid..lol. But o well.. No ones loss I guess. I just got a bunch of old car locks to mess around with from the junk yard the other day. So I'm happy. Most of them are pinned only on the top and a lot aren't even wafer locks. They have regular pins like a padlock or deadbolt. I thought that was kinda weird since most car locks today are double sided wafer locks...anyways thanks for the heads up everyone. Easy pickings.
