Pinned thread gone

A few days ago I accidentally flagged the pinned thread in this subforum. It immediately disappeared and I hoped a moderator would notice, but this hasn’t happened yet.

  • I tried to report the last post for being inappropriate but since it’s my first time flagging, I didn’t notice I flagged the whole thread instead,
  • It’s weird that the action of flagging by a user of almost the lowest rank immediately hides the thread rather than put it in a review queue for moderators, or at least tally the amount of flags and delete only if the tally exceeds a threshold.

Indeed.
This flagging thing seems t be far too agressive.
When there is one poster and one objection, it’s just two different opinions.
I’m not even sure any action should be taken upon the fact that different people have different opinions.

Except for spammers.
Those should be whipped to the bone or buried alive and upside down.

It is aggressive and does not need to be as there is a reasonable number of moderators, spread round the world in different time zones

It is still there and I see the last post. Maybe it just moved down. Settings for pinning and unpinning are a tad, lets say, unique. Sometimes it is pinned until you reach the bottom of a topic or thread or something and then unpins.

It looks like the post ended up in the wrong thread some how.
