Hi Guys........... could somebody please tell me what rules I am breaking on this site/forum by asking questions??
I do NOT recall reading anywhere that it is forbidden to ask questions on this site...... is there something I have overloked??:alien
Fifteen minutes ago I asked whether anybody else has noticed the disappearance of threads with no explanation and I cited a specific example of one that disappeared overnite.
Wo and behold within 15 minutes my thread asking the aforementioned question disapeared with no explanation or U2.
Is it a crime/no no to ask simple questions on this site??
Lets see how long this one stays up??:o
Time 12.17am
7 minutes so far...
and im guessing u now have answer to ur previous thread...yes the other thread was removed
btw, i think this one will last longer, no mods are on atmo

U got me curious....did U read my thread that was removed, and if U did read it......did U think it contained anything "OFFENSIVE" and deserved to be censored or removed ?

What's all this, then?
🙂
Couldn't help it.

Hey, Doublecab,
I've looked for any threads which have been snaffled, and I don't see them. Do you have any thread titles?
About the only reason for threads to be moved to the Suspended Posts section is defamation or bagging other members or continual stirring the pot for no good reason. Trust me, you'll get plenty of U2U warnings when this happens. Buying and Selling areas are slightly different. Not posting a price, hijacking someone else's thread, or not otherwise following the buying and selling rules can be grounds for a thread or post to go missing without warning, although in the past we've generally given a few hours notice. Just ask habitual abusers of our service 🙂
thanks,
Andrew
not in this case andrew
He put up a thread, pretty much like this one. And within minutes it went.
Yes I saw it, and the only thing I could see was someone muct have thought u'd be stirring the pot regarding the original thread that went missing. But other than the question where and why did it go, there was nothing else I could see that would upset ppl.
dubless. 🥲

Also I think he may be referring to the "tissue" one.
I got to read the last bit of that because I left it on my screen when I walked out last night, read it this morning and now its gone.
'Ah, whatever................'
I deleted it.
The thread that was posted was inciteful and shit stirring for support of other idiots on this forum. It certainly was nothing like what is above.
What is it with people that they feel that they should want to create trouble in the forum that is a backbone for the very hobby that brings them on here?
The Admin and Mods do this for free in their own time - trying to keep the air clean so that others who are really interested, can do so in a non-threatening environment.
Everyone can partake in the drivel and fun, but at least do it in a way that is respectful to others. Sheesh.
I agree with you squizy, (about deleteing that thread)
I was just referring his post, to what I thought was a second thread he considered 'disappeared'. His comments in there were not very, how to say, contributory to a fruitfull discussion...?
'Ah, whatever................'
The "tissue" thread has been moved to the Moderators section. The initial "disappearing thread" thread, has, as I said, now disappeared.
Cool. Problem solved.

well my thread should dissapear

Sorry.. but I think you've made a mistake..
Your "removal' criteria used to be related to defammation and sexual references unsuitable for an audience that crosses all demographs..
Now you have broadened it to those that spread inciteful and non-contributory remarks.. Do you really want to go this far?..
OK, we have a few loose cannons on here but they exist in society as well.. I am not sure I want to contribute to a society (or forum) that doesn't allow basic rights (including ours to disagree)..
By setting yourself up as chief censor on what is "good" or "makes a contribution" creates powers that trample human rights..
Now I may be older or younger than you.. but I have been alive long enough to see this happen in our world a few times and it has never ended well.. Just a word of caution..
By the way.. did you know that news corp stopped broadcasting the BBC world service into china because it stood in the way of their BSKYB commercial negotiations with the chinese government? By doing so, they denied the chinese people significant access to free press.. I don't want to sermonise but I just get this uneasy feeling.. I hope you don't mind me putting my point of view..
Cheers

Hi Stenguns.....posted a response to squizy this afternoon titled "I stand accused" ....it lasted half a second before it dissapeared........lets see whether this post to U sees the light of day.?
There used to be a book around years ago titled "LOGICAL THINKING & RATIONAL DEDUCTION"....could be time for it to go back into print.:kiss
BTW could somebody enlighten me as to what defines "INCITEFUL" and why one can not ask questions without that being defined as inciteful??
Regards.........:bounce
Nothing received here dude, nor deleted by me. I'll tell ya when I do it.
You seem to have a lot to say for someone who has been on the forum for 6 months and made 50+ posts.
I'll keep this thread open for you to continue your drivel. Happy posting, but I won't read it.

As U claim it wasnt U and nobody else has owned up to deleting it it could then mean I am delusional or sombody is not willing to own up or maybe U are in denial .....this is what logic and rational deduction is all about.....but hey come tomorrow and time permiting I will endeavour to post the same "I stand accused" topic and see whether it sees the light of day on this forum.
You seem to have a lot to say for someone who has been on the forum for 6 months and made 50+ posts.
Hey I dont recall reading any set rules or conditions when I joined this forum that I had to post X number of posts or belong to this forum for a certain period of time before I was entitled to ask a QUESTION.....but maybe you can enlighten me on these/my shortcomings that I appear to have overlooked (according to U it appears):o
I'll keep this thread open for you to continue your drivel.
AHHHHHHH....."drivel" ...one mans meat another mans poison...........the Roman emperors used to "Kill the messenger when they didnt like the message" ...but the message was still the message.:o
On the other hand some people would clasify another persons remarks/statements as "drivel" because they dont want to admit the other person has a valid point!...or maybe that is just a case of denial.
Happy posting, but I won't read it.
Yes U will because U want to see how this saga unfolds!
PS. Are we having fun yet..............:kiss
a lot to say for someone who has been on the forum for 6 months and made 50+ posts.
This again. It always comes back to this. Only the dribblers with 17 million posts can speak. If you are loud enough and talk enough even bullshit is gospel. Some of the rudest people on here are those with several thousand posts. Over the last few weeks we have seen the spite, agro and spinelessness of many of these. How quickly they lose their temper. How quickly their only response is to attack the person. How quickly they edit other people's posts to remove evidence of their wrongs. How much some people always have to be right. How some people are experts in their own mind but don't know what they are talking about. Shame shame shame.
My work is done.

KINDLY READ ALL FURTHER POSTS ON THIS TOPIC
About the only reason for threads to be moved to the Suspended Posts section is defamation or bagging other members or continual stirring the pot for no good reason.
AS U WILL NOTE THEY WERE NOT MOVED TO THE SUSPENDED POSTS SECTION BUT DELETED.
CORRECT ME IF MY ASSUMPTION IS WRONG...BUT IT APPEARS TO ME THAT A MODERATOR CAN DELETE A POST ON HIS/HER OWN BAT WITHOUT A SECOND OPPINION/CONSENSUS FROM ANOTHER MODERATOR.
Trust me, you'll get plenty of U2U warnings when this happens.
NO WARNINGS...NO U2U.........NO NOTHING....maybe asking questions falls into its own catagory:o

I couldn't help myself but come back and read your drivel Doublecab....at least you were right about one thing. Oooooh those words have really hurt me.
