So many other makers have and I was just curious. I'm guessing if Bill had ever built stool, it would have been out of exotic leather, been perfectly balanced, beautiful and the best on the market.

I wish I could be of assistance, but haven't noticed missing posts. If I do in the future, I'll be happy to let you know. The only thing I've noticed seems to be diminished activity, but no particular posts specifically. Obviously, we don't have the monitoring tools you have though.
