Little envelope symbol

[CollegeGirl]

Please see the attached screen shot of some of the topics in the Tea Room.

Could anyone tell me what the little white envelope with what looks like a 'no entry' sign overlapping it means? This appears at the end of the titles of some of the posts, and I have circled one in red.

Thank you!

Hello CG, it means that the thread has had posts deleted.

I noticed that on one of my threads and wondered what it was. Does it mean it's been deleted by a mod or by the original poster?

I think posters can only edit posts, so a poster could delete most of the text in a post and just write deleted but I assume only moderators can delete posts or remove threads.
