Censorship

[froggyfrenchman]

the mods do a great job, nothing but respect for them. However... some sort of comment explaining "this post modified" would be good.
Keep up the good work guys!

yeh youd think it was a mental hospital where they queitly try to shut everything up an not upset anyone else......

And people look at me weird when I say to the newbies "welcome to the madhouse"

Well if this is Spankme's house, how about providing some refreshments?!!? Fucking parched here, some nibbles wouldn't go amiss either.

I'm with you.... show me where the keg's at......

But on a more serious note, perhaps we should keep in mind when posting that kids have access to this too. Would you want your 12 year old son/daughter reading what you're about to write?????

...... Who the hell am I kidding? I ain't got kids and the little shits shouldn't be hear anyway so f*ck them!

Hey just keep in mind guys--mods are human. They can't get it right every time. Ya make the best call ya can at the time.
I know one mod who was getting some pretty nasty stuff flung at them but still had to respond in an impartial way. Can be a tadd tough.
RE IXIONS point--Can I suggest you still quote so you remember what that person says -then phrase ya answer so you no longer need to quote --sorta like I just did. Reason being as I understand it --as the site grows bigger we use more band width -which cost mooolah- therefore by cutting back on quoting -slightly less band width -less moolah

Moderators: If you move a thread to a different section, can you please let the person know where it is moved to. THANKS.

I started a thread in General ravings "Yikes 9 cops and only 1 stopped me" now it is no longer there and I cant find it.... to post a link to it into another thread.

Update... someone moved it to "Meetings and Events" section...huh !!!!!

WHY??????

Crashe - I can undertsand where you are coming from. HOWEVER I do as I am sure the other moderators do a lot on this site every day. If I do something that will impact someone like the other day, I let all the people involved know as well as SpankMe. Not every little thing I do is announced to the entire site tho.

How about if you have a question ask. The forum you placed it in will only have one or two mods. PM us and ask us what we have done if you are concerned. :spudwhat:

IMO the tasks of the Mods is a thankless one... and full credit to them for that. But announcing that something has been edited would at least be common decency. How am I to know what is considered offensive unless I am told? I'm hardly a shrinking violet, and offending me is a pretty hard act. Winja would need an extra dose of viagra to achieve that. But there's plenty of softer folk out there who lose the plot over things I wouldn't even notice.

Point taken about younguns viewing the site, but I reckon the adults should grow a brain sometimes... discussions on pigs, runners and the Iraq war usually bring the polar opposites into the discussion. I think it should be a case of if you don't like it, move along to the next post.
