If the entire thread is deleted, then it just disappears. I do believe that the Mod has an option to show that he/she deleted it.

If you delete a single post within a thread, then I believe it shows that post box as deleted by the Mod. Such as, "This post has been deleted by bptoo".

I hope that helps.
