Why are the threads where I have deleted my comments from still showing in 'My threads'

The reason I deleted these is to reduce my threads to a manageable amount

I only really want to keep the 'genealogy' threads, all others which I comment on are usually just for fun and I do not need to keep them indefinately.

Why do they no longer go????? :-S

That would the Estelle that knows nothing about the way this site worked when it worked fine then wouldn't it.

as Phil moir was the one who said that it was not possible to do beta testing?

as regards to the beta testing i thought it ridiculous that they chose to remove the old tree before beta testing with the new tree

They are missing the point as usual

In the link that I quoted, GR's reply was:

****************
Thanks for your email and bring this to our attention.

If you have added to a post on the message boards and then you delete it after, you will still have it listed under My threads.

I have reported this to our technical team as I agree, that when you delete yourself off a thread this should then be removed from your My Thread.

I hope this helps and please tell us if you need any further assistance.
***************************

Perhaps the technical team and whoever sent the above response and Estelle should communicate with each other?
