organ_shifter Posted September 15, 2005 CID Share Posted September 15, 2005 my topic was removed. i was not notified. what is going on? we had a serious discussion going on. i want some answers I locked the topic and another mod removed it. Not only do we not allow threads/polls of that subject matter, but we also do not take personal attacks for granted. I did actually notify you of why it was being closed in my final post, but you didn't get a chance to read it as the topic was removed because of the content. I'm sending you a pm of my last post. I don't expect to see it reposted on the public boards either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monsnet2k8 Posted September 15, 2005 CID Share Posted September 15, 2005 I must admit i voted and honestly if someone is going to cause drama on a site by being rude or just being mean to others' well what can i say' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTB Posted September 15, 2005 CID Share Posted September 15, 2005 organ_shifter you sent me a pm just now. saying my tactics were childish? how dare you i simply posted why he was disrupting the forum. people voted. and they voted for a ban. You are not the one to decide that, nor the people voting. Thus, such a poll is just wrong. im done with this forum. im really sorry to see it happen but i will not be part of a forum where people like that are heralded as some kind of untouchable god. Really? Goodbye then. rayray909: Freedom of Speech does not exist on fora. The admins decide what's allowed and what's not. If CA3LE for example decides to ban discussions about cheese, then you will be banned if you discuss about cheese, with the topic quickly removed from public view. We're not evil mods and admins, and you're allowed to a lot compared to some fora. But, personal attacks are not allowed. They get messy fast, and I hate having to clean up the mess.

I sent you a pm today because you didn't see the closing post from yesterday. Creating a poll/thread that is disruptive in itself was not an adult thing to do. And just because a few users voted doesn't mean that the targeted member's fate will be decided by popular demand because of a poll on the general boards. Again, admins/mods make the final call on what is not good for the forum. You are not forced to reply to any posts made by any member. If you have an issue with him because of personal attacks, you will still have to pm an admin/mod to resolve the situation. I hope you can understand that, as moderators, we cannot allow any member(s) to degrade each other's character for any reason. As far as you being done here, that's your call Elite.Pete.

I like most cheeses, but this one kinda makes the old tummy churn. http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0JAW/is_2002_Summer/ai_89157430 Elite.pete. Why not stick around awhile? The mods are good, here. Thats why it isn't absolute chaos and a flamefest every day. I didn't see the thread, so I can't comment on it but to say from whats in this thread, I'd say it was not a good idea but now lets move on.
