What happened to my posts?

[The Loaf]

I posted a question 2 times last night on the novice board in an attempt to get some information on two bottles of wine I've been given. (I noticed other similar questions there). Initially, it appeared that the post went through and was listed. But when I checked back an hour or so later, my topic had disappeared. Again, I tried this twice, and the post disappeared twice. Was the question removed, or moved somewhere, for some reason?

In addition, I asked the same question in the Italian Wine forum (the question regards Italian wine), and the post remained--it's still there--and was even responded to.

Did I do sosmething wrong? This is the first question I've asked or responded to on this site. I'm glad I found it and have learned much even in the short time I've been aware of it. Thanks... but what's up?
