I saw a moon this morning !

No kidding, and it was pure daylight.

Saw a man go through the east parking lot in a hospital gown. Went to the office on the north side offering to everyone to look also.

He casually crosses two lanes of traffic and meanders on the median. As it would be, on the other two lanes, he had to move. uh huh. Along comes the wind, and what naturally followed in nature is the moon.

It was interesting to watch the guy, and certainly applies to this board. Not all posts follow the exact title or rules of play, and it certainly fits well with the others here who have showed their own moon, and continue to do so.

Sorry you're so unhappy here, deddlastt.

There's a bevvy of threads all over the boards, there isn't at least one to your liking? Or people?

You've been upset when moderation is more strict and upset when moderation isn't. I think those are pretty much the 2 options, I'm sorry you're not happy with either of them.

Not sorry. Not unhappy. You do not know me at all. You yourself stated that the political board should be opened up. As it was before you stated that, but that's ok, some people are favored more than others. A fact shown on another thread on this very board just a little while ago. Or maybe you are that person.

Not upset. I stated and pointed out facts and I didn't have to name call. I purposefully stayed out of two heated and nasty threads. No posts were censored, no posts were deleted. Fact. And yet my posts have been both deleted and censored for so much less.

My point is moderation is strict for a select few, and not strict for a select few. Others have pointed this out as well. That is where the mods are missing it. Application is not even close to being fair, it depends on who you are. Fact.

I think what was said was, the board it should be fine to discuss political issues, not JUST about the election. I thought we covered this already? I don't remember seeing anywhere that the election board should be for any and all topics.

Why do you keep bringing it up? You seem to want to keep pointing out over and over again how you're treated so unfairly and no one else ever is.

Your opinion on "much less" is just that - your opinion.

You've had plenty of posts left alone - 268 of them to be exact. If you were so heavily deleted as you say, how in the world do you have 268 posts under your belt?

I know why you started this thread where you did and that's fine. It wasn't deleted as you expected it would be. I think it all showed just fine for itself. And no, I didn't move it. It does make more sense though, since a thread about a man crossing the street and the moon don't have much to do with politics.

Who are all these people complaining that they're constantly getting deleted unfairly? No one has contacted me and I guess I'm missing it.

Instead of sayig I"m sorry you're unhappy, I'll say I'm sorry you feel the way you do.

And case in point, did you post anything like this to other posters? I don't read all of them, but I don't think so. A positive one here and there to your pals. Oh, but it's bad too if anyone ( and someone else has mentioned same) suggests a mod has pals who are favored.

I believe for some, their posts are set up to go into someone's in box for monitoring, and if you hit the report button too much, that's a problem too. I said I believe because I have been told it happened to at least one other person. I can't prove those items as fact.

I am not the only person noticing discrepancies, nor posting about it. It's not just me at all. I never said I was "heavily deleted", that's something you have come up with on your own. I did not expect my moon thread to be deleted, there was nothing offensive about it. I never expect my threads to be deleted, I expect the powers that be to be as fair as possible and not favor their pals. It has a tremendous amount of relevance in how people conduct themselves, especially recently.

I don't know what that means, posts go into someone's in box. Is that a feature of vB boards?



On the rest (well, even the posts thing)...you've completely and totally lost me. I'll have to agree to disagree and just say have a good evening.

I'm confused about the "unfair/inconsistent deletion policy" complaints.

Do you think that the mods have a particular formula for pinpointing exactly what post warrants a removal?

Do you think any of our posts are so important that Ambrianna, or any other mod needs to implement a "Rule Violators' Checklist," and then do a special algebraic formula on each posts to see if it qualifies for deletion?

Or is it possible that sometimes the mods are deleting a post simply in response to another poster who has hit the triangular icon on the right side of the "offending" post?

For those who have complaints, how about stepping up and providing a fool-proof formula for the deleting of posts?

Better yet, why not step up FURTHER and actually implement them yourselves as a volunteer moderator?

Until then, "Skate at Your Own Risk"...
