    Noob question: If a thread is deleted, should a link to it lead to a 404 error, or...

    ..."Thread not specified" error? I'm just trying to figure out why I have crawl errors that haven't cleared out in Webmaster tools for 5-6 months.

    Everything I thought I knew is about this is getting a little foggy.

    Does a "thread not specified" error return a 404? Or should I be seeing a 404 page?

    Please... If this sounds like a stupid question to you, move on to the next thread. I really don't need snarky answers right now.

    I've been trying to fix this problem for a while and have done plenty of searching around.

      It should throw a 'No thread specified' message like this:

      Code:
      No Thread specified. If you followed a valid link, please notify the administrator
