The trash category is usually for deleted/spam topics that have been moderated and only visible to staff. Do you have a trash category? And, how often do you check to see what has been deleted?

This is a good idea. I think that it might be in your best interest to have one.

I've found some very interesting threads in the trash that got deleted by mod/admin. I'm not sure why they were deleted if only for a link. Usually though, I'll just remove the link and leave the post up.

So it is called trash category. In another forum, it is called invisible board. That archive of deleted posts is very important because it serves as a record instead of outright deleting the unwanted post which in effect will lessen the contents of the forum.
