We're not all delete-happy moderators. I think I've deleted/locked two or three threads in the D&R forum which is pretty good considering some of the content in that forum. ;) I think I locked maybe one thread in the ZTA forum. The only time I delete individual posts is when someone reports it.

I really believe that most of the moderators are doing a great job and aren't quick to delete everything.

As someone pointed out, whether to delete or not is a judgement call and not all moderators think alike. In addition, some forums (this one for instance) are much busier than others.

For me, the final decision rests on whether there is a TOS violation, which is why I posted it at the head of the forum.

Sometimes, though, I wish childishness was a TOS violation.

Don't worry Geeky and ZTAngel, I'm not talking about you guys. The rush mods are delete happy (obviously) and one of the Chit Chat mods are delete happy (not so obvious). Who is that CC mod? I don't know.

Well that's 2 more of my posts deleted. Count em up. There was no reason to delete my posts.

I don't understand why my posts which were in a thread that was a joke from the start were deleted along with Bobby's. There were at least 4 I think deleted.

They didn't violate any rule. A moderator says they were sexual. Evidently bringing up Michael Jackson is sexual. Great.

The posts were deleted because someone was looking for a reason to delete them and not because they hurt anyone, upset anyone, or violated some rule. Pick your fights and stop acting as if this is some sort of Amish internet fest while offensive posts trying to upset people are allowed to exist.

Amish people are on the interweb? That's the scariest thing I've heard all day. Maybe we can delete their posts too.

Um, hello? I delete very few posts and usually it's at the behest of the post originator, who no longer has access to delete the post him- or herself. Many of the recruitment posts you are complaining about lately I haven't even seen.

Let's be fair here...

Big hug! I love ZTA!!!

You're so Panhellenic! :)

Don't worry, Barb - you're not really anybody until people start threads and LJ entries about you and your family.... I don't think that these people are talking about you - they are just looking for YET another way to wage war against someone who they don't like, and continually try to piss off just for the sake of being mean (and then they turn around and act shocked that others would think they were being mean) - let me do the surprised look for you **SHOCKED** (complete with hand to chest and the "who me?" look on the face).

Glad to know I'm a nobody. I think I prefer it that way.

With age comes wisdom...lol.

I'm curious as to why your posts get deleted as well.

i'm only posting in this thread to keep up my string of being in every totally immature thread on this site. well done, moderators, for looking like asses by stooping to a level you claim to abhor. bravo.



your collective wisdom is a boon to the rest of us.

Well, heat has never been hard to handle so some people with "special powers" tend to use those powers when it gets a little too cold and act like they don't know what happened.
