Dear Mr. Stanford Wong, why did you bust my informative post about Borgata?
Also why did you stated "message deleted by poster" when I did not self-bust my own post? See the quote below:

Thanks in advance for your explanation with anticipation.

Maybe somebody has gotten your password. Either through carelessness on your part, or perhaps someone hacked it. Perhaps you are using a very obvious password.
I think the �Message Deleted by Poster� is put on by the software, and it means that your password was used.
If BJ21.com administration had removed your post, it would be gone entirely, and would not say "Message Deleted by Poster."

How do I get my parking fee comped there?
Thanks
"My question to you is also gone.
How do I get my parking fee comped there?
Thanks " by just me.
Dear Ms. just me,
What? Your post was busted along with mine? Well, it seems somebody at bj21.com does not like to share some informative stuff about Borgata casino. Of course, my conclusion could be wrong because a hacker (as suggested by the Professor and Al Rogers) knew both of our passwords and busted my post and your post at the same time.
To answer your question, you get your parking comped automatically when your room is comped. Just tell the cashier at the parking booth that you are a comped guest of Bortgata. The cashier would not charge you for the parking fee after he sees your guest pass with the hotel room number on it.
As I mentioned in my busted post, Borgata will pick up the incidental charges such as taxes, surcharges, parking, etc...when your room is comped.
Regards
Novena
If you didn't self-bust your post, then someone figured out your password and busted it. As for just me's post, it would have been orphaned at that point and may well have been busted by management or a postbuster as a post that couldn't stand alone as an orphan. I'm just guessing here, but it is an informed guess. I sincerely doubt if the original post was busted by bj21. It was simply not the sort of post they would bust.
It's important to realize this is just a bulletin board on a computer. A computer is just a machine. The busted/nonbusted status of a post is probably encoded in a single bit (aka flag) on the server. A bit can get flipped just through random electromagnetic noise. This has been going on since the dawn of the computer age. Hard drives are more reliable now, but it still definitely happens.
Or a bit could get flipped and cause the computer to think your thread is connected to a thread from four years ago. Something like this actually happened to dozens of posts on the free MidWest board a while back. Nobody is going to spend weeks, or possibly months, with a decompiler tracking down the exact cause, unless it's a recurring problem. It wouldn't cure the problem anyhow.
Just say to yourself over and over, "it's just a machine."
But change your password, just to be safe.

I have no idea what happened to your post. I did not even have the pleasure of reading it.
