Another black hole

[Bill (Smithville NJ)]

If I understand the problem correctly, the problem occurs when a message is deleted and the threaded mode then becomes corrupted.

One solution would be to not allow messages to be deleted. Or if they are deleted, then the delete mechanism should put a null message holder in its place. The holder could have a message that "This Message Deleted" or some other message. Then the thread would be preserved.

I seem to remember being on a forum where this was what happened.

Of course, I'm probably overlooking something really oblivious why this wouldn't work or not really understanding the problem.
