TR!ΔNGL€ T€€TH Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 Can I get clarification on why posts are being deleted, including posts asking why posts were deleted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frosty Jack Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 I deleted the original posts because I thought they were just the wrong side of acceptable, and just took 'banter' a bit too far. Then I thought there wasn't much point in discussing posts which no longer exist, it just draws unnecessary attention to what was deleted. I thought if anyone wants to query it they can, and you did.

Captain America Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 So there will be a new set of rules printed, detailing exactly what is and is not acceptable in terms of banter?Fucking hell, lets just reduce it to the football thread and what's mildly annoying us at this specific moment in time and be done with it.

Paranoid Android Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 I hate it when I miss the deleted stuff. They're the best bits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woolies Posted September 30, 2011 Report Share Posted September 30, 2011 I once wrote a script that auto-deleted any post with "who|why", "deleted", "post" and a question mark in it.Good Times™ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TR!ΔNGL€ T€€TH Posted September 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2011 So there will be a new set of rules printed, detailing exactly what is and is not acceptable in terms of banter?Talking about how many shits you have and leering at women is okay, calling Warden French isn't. The board can be run anyway the mods want, I was just after clarification. In future perhaps it is best to send the members with the offending posts a PM, stating why the posts were deleted. That would prevent the whole "why was my post deleted" queries happening again in future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the record I thought that the 'banter' was just a bit offensive towards one person (not Warden) in another thread. That thread was promising, and was exactly what we should be encouraging on this site, people coming together to actually make music. And the posts I deleted were just reducing all that to something from On the Buses... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
