Disappearing Threads
WTF?
Why do the mods constantly move things around in here. It's ridiculous - unlike any other forum i've ever frequented.

Yeah I post on a couple of other boards (not related to cycling) and the mods rarely delete or do anything special with threads. The way this board is run pisses me off a lot. Someone who codes should write a new board that we can all go to and not have to worry about our threads being deleted or moved because of small technicalities.

See I can understand a thread being deleted or moved because it didn't originally relate to fixed gear bicycles, but a thread that either goes away from the original topic being deleted? That's some ******* ***** right there. WHAT IS THIS? NAZI GERMANY?

Yes the above thread was deleted as complaints were entered.
Shall I officially warn the offending posters?
Sorry I didn't ask permission of you all before getting rid of that trash.
Shall we review the forums guidelines? See here.
<edit> For those too lazy to click the link:
Vulgarity
As a community with a diverse variety of members and readers, we ask that our members to post without using vulgarity. Vulgarity not only includes vulgar language and pictures but also sexist, racist, anti-religious and homophobic language which may offend other members. In addition, the "masking" of vulgarity by inserting * or another keystroke in place of one or more letters in a vulgar term is unacceptable in most cases.

I am not sure what you are saying here.^^
Offensive posts will be deleted. Sometimes it is more effective to delete entire threads if the the content is questionable or the folks responding can't keep it clean.
