Question about Self-Deleted threads.

I think Self-deleted threads used to stay to be bumped down eventually, that is, stay on the page until traffic drove it down like any thread. But I just self-deleted one and it seems to be disappeared entirely, which is fine by me. It is listed as self-deleted in My Posts, which is the only place I can locate it.

So, are self-deleteds now disappeared from view, which is better for not cluttering up the place, plus fulfilling the purpose of Deletion. Is this a change or was it always like this? Thanks, anyone.

However, I believe that if you save it to your journal, it stays visible- at least to you.
