I reiterate. That was NOT my intention. This isn't about the Boe thread.
I know. "It's a general feeling."

My thoughts on this, its just that you've never seen us put more work into threads. The members in general were used to the "laidback" type feeling (which would eventually turn in the wrong direction, one way or another in terms of letting go insulting posts, etc...).

But honestly, we close/delete/edit/move threads for a reason. Maybe the members in general feel we've choked the necks of the threads, preventing you from having "fun," or "whoring" the threads to the fullest.

Please keep in mind that you are in the extreme minority here. Most people who post here don't hang on every last letter that is written.

I think I would only consider mass pm'ing people if the thread had a button (for mods only) that allowed us to do so with one click.



Yup... more work for u guys. *Sips the mai tai* (On vacation).
Do you even know whats in a Mai tai? *the adult asks of the child* huhu

Peejay, not my intent. I don't want to ***** threads. But not every thread needs to be locked that is. I understand that some become wastes of time, but not all. Maybe I'm wrong.

Actually, I subliminally commented on it about 2 weeks ago after one of my threads dissapeared. It was about something illegal, so I understood after the fact.

I still think Jack and Coke is better. Me speaking about alcohol is illegal too, would you also delete this?


I'm not having a problem with the moderation, just the fact that it's been inconsistent in the recent past. Perhaps an announcement each time you decide to change moderation techniques?

Ah, I didn't prepare with examples. I didn't know it would turn into this, to be honest.

There is a specific reason why your posts get deleted. They are mostly useless, OT and inflammatory in nature. Keep it up and you really will have no chance of getting your old name back....muchless the ability to post freely under any name consistently.

You come to battle with no bullets?

I think what you wanted to say has been said. There not much else to be accomplished here, IMO.

Didn't know I was going into court. Just thought I was conversing around the watercooler.

Also, half the time I bump a thread I bump it for a relatively good reason. The last thread I bumped was a Scubadiving thread from 2001, after I bumped it, I noticed that 11 people posted there. (By the way I just searched and bumped it in OT). Suprisingly, the threads I bump end up closing quickly, although most of them are relatively addequate for continueing to post rather than create a new thread.
