The post (a link to it anyway) is showing up on the forum index and in my profile (the summary is there in the profile), but not in the actual thread:

The post was moved to "Show your Creations".

It may be confusing but if the creation doesn't fit in any of the subforums on top it stays as a normal thread in Board index/Genereal/Show your Creations path

I'm sorry this may be my lack of knowledge of English but what do you mean by 'ship' here?
I guess you are not talking about boats.

It's short for spaceship (i.e. boats, but in space!). The correct Factorio term though is "space platform".

Of course, I might have figured that out given the topic :mrgreen:

Well first thing I did was to click on OPs link, click on the "Show your Creations" in topic path and I saw it just fine.
Not sure if it may be connected to the fact I actually wrote a messsage into that thread?

Because clicking on that takes me to "Space Platforms", and sushi_eater hasn't posted anything there

I was reading "user's" post, from profile, it shows a post starting by :
The Gas Guzzler, the pinnacle of Nauvis technology
This ship is capable of continuously traveling at 384km/h (with the standard +-10km/h), with a fuel production of 70'000 per minute. The fuel consumption is way into the diminishing returns, the ship is within 10km/h of the maximum possible speed (regardless of fuel consumption) with rare quality th...
But i can't see any "Gas Guzzler" platform or spaceship or boats in the thread where the link redirect.

I also wrote messages in that thread, it's confusing me.

Oh I get it now.

I thought that sushi_eater cannot see the Space Platforms thread.
That's why I pasted the screenshot with that thread underlined.

Well when I try to click the link in his profile I'm also linked to Space Platforms.
I suspect some mod wanted to join these topics and something went wrong in the process.

[Moderator-me here] I have searched extensively any trace of either OP's post, or moderation of said post in the logs, and could find neither. Can only find proof of its existence by a search (with the world Guzzler for example, or searching OP's posts). I'm clueless about what happened, and how it happened.
