Goodbye everyone. Thanks for the investment input over the years.
Make sure you keep a copy of what you post, in case its indiscriminately removed, just because a moderator disagrees with you.
These three?

There don't seem to be any missing post IDs round that time (the gaps in this thread appearing on one about email and something to do with a guy called Boris)

I've just had a peruse of the moderator logs. I went back over a week before I found a deleted post of yours. You deleted it yourself.

Reason: Poor example
Nevertheless you are right that posts could be deleted if a moderator or admin feels they breach rules/guidelines. An alternative to keeping a copy of every post would be to request a copy of your deleted post from us.

Apologies, the 3 posts I made on this thread hadn't been deleted. It was my mistake. I was aware I had posted them fairly early on, on the thread, - I thought about half a dozen posts after the OP's initial post. (So) When I went back later, the thread was on a second page, so I looked back at the first page, to read what I had missed, and couldn't see my posts there, so I rather too quickly jumped to the conclusion they had been removed, particularly as Dod had mentioned one or more of his had disappeared. However, mine were still there, albeit on the second page of the thread!
So, apologies to moderators and readers on that one.
The above said, the sentiment behind my earlier posts (and Dod's), that the TLF has moved away from financial posts and discussions, still stands, and so I think it is time that quietly I slip away into the sunset. In fact, my ideal/preferred IT portfolio is now fully in place, so I have less need to research and hunt out potential contenders. (And I can read general news and debate in a multitude of other places, even on occasions the BBC!)
Regards to all,
Richfool
