2 different threads in my forums has been deleted. What's really weird is that it is not showing up in ModeratorCP under 'deleted' (I have it archived there for 30 days), and moderator/admin logs are not showing that anyone has deleted them.

Does anybody know what could have happened?

They might have been created by users, that have been marked as Spammer. Depending on your settings, the content of the users marked as Spammer is deleted instantly. There will be no archiving, logs and also no possibility to restore it in any way.

One of the threads had been active for a long time with a lot of posts in it, the other one was created by a moderator. Can this really be the case?

No. Unless you have marked your moderator as Spammer.

Yes, if it has been started by a user marked as Spammer.

This was only a possible explanation. Check your "Mark as Spammer" setting. If the content is not set to be deleted instantly, then this is not your case.

You were actually right!!

One of the threads were created by a user who for some reason got flagged as a spammer by a mod yesterday, resulting in his thread being deleted. Thanks alot!
