    New Moderation policy at TD

    I seem to remember a while back DD saying that there had only been a couple of threads ever deleted off here and generaly most of the posts that were deleted was cos they were duplicate (I do that a lot).

    Anyway the mods here seem to be a lot more active lately with a couple of threads gone in the last 2 days and what apperes to be lots of posts deleted. Is this just a coincidence of a lot of crap all at the same time or is there a new moderation policy?
    I have more than the average number of arm and legs

    I keep hearing rumours of these deleted posts, but I can't find them, and they would show in the logs.

    I'm only going on rumors of deleted posts except the one by smeg as I have'nt seen any myself, but what about the threads MHZ was just asking about one and CMN deleted one last night.

    Stuff can only be chucked in the trash bin, when it is dumped into the trash it has to be titled, the mod that trashes it gets to title it, smegs post was not deleted as he well knows, I moved it to the trash.
    Stuff in the trash stays there for 2 days, after that it is soft deleted for 2 days, then after that it is hard deleted, also in the main trash bin nobody can edit or touch a post once it is in there, this way there is at least a 4 day window if the post was trashed unfairly.

    Well, NickA had a thread going late yesterday evening where he declared his devotation to CMN.. It was up for 10 -15 minutes and has not been seen since then.. What about making posts/threads invisible ?

    Ok thanks for the reply, but for an ordinary member deleting, trashing, making invisible are pretty much the same.i.e the post is gone. Anyway I was'nt really asking about any specific instances, just asking if there had been a change of policy for the mod's to become more active. I take it from your reply there has'nt....good

    I think it's time CMN has his moderating powers taken away.

    He's as bad as unwell and we don't want that do we?

    A couple of mine and a few other posts where deleted on the minorities thread, there was some public speculation about who deleted them until Marmite owned up to it.

    I am not impressed.

    Who are the mods here, anyway? Why all the secrecy?
    I don't care when it's just duplicate posts and porn which get cleaned up, but when threads and comments disappear without explanation I am starting to wonder what's going on?

    I doubt whether there's anything sinister happening.

    But it's good manners to let someone know when they've posted something that had to be deleted.
    Not pron of course!

    I'm going to go against the rules and publish parts of PMs I recieved from an anonymous source...

    In a forum there are many moments for compassion and tender action. There are many moments for ruthless action - what is often called ruthless - what may in many circumstances be only clarity, seeing clearly what there is to be done and doing it, directly, quickly, awake, looking at it.
    As for the charges against me, I am unconcerned. I am beyond their timid lying morality, and so I am beyond caring.
    Have you ever considered any real freedoms? Freedoms from the opinion of others... even the opinions of yourself?

    All I can say is he's a great man, he has enlarged my mind, but I'm worried he may be becoming unhinged - a meglemaniac, out for total domination of the forum.

    I'm glad you left out the bit where I said you looked smashing in that pink cocktail dress and the mirror stillettos

    deleted post

    attempted to post, i think twice now, as thinking 1st one didn't take, but now suspect it was deleted. posted to 'home build in udon thani'

    posted and included a link, from a udon thani forum of a house build i am having done. thought that might be informational or interesting to the OP, BUT, deleted.

    am i missing something..............also some idiot sent me a PM, asking me to stop spamming..........WTF........... there is no solicitation at all, it's an informational thread.

    after i post this, i'm going to report it as abusive, so it gets noticed. please advise me if i am doing something wrong.

    THANKS

    The thread isn't about your home build, it is about someone elses home build, yet you keep spamming it and other threads. If you want to post about YOUR home build then post about it, but don't fuking spam other threads with your crap.

    Go back to the thread in World News where you posted that remarkable pearl of wisdom and check.

    wasn't DD...............lol.

    since it was information, i thought it might be appreciated, but a guess not. no spam at all, as not trying to sell anything, just trying to pass a little info.

    are we allowed to start thread, with a link to a thread from another forum, as i have not desire to post 10 pages of info again.

    i think you are allowed to say 'FU'.....

    Cant see why guys get pissed over a few deleted posts, I mean who gives a fuk anyway, TD's just a web sight and ones not applying for a Job.

    Jeez I wish the Mods would delete all my posts as there mostly shit anyway.

    Toughen up you bastards.

    suggested i should start my own home building thread, well, that didn't work, guess i'm banned from posting on the home building part of the thread. so much for being able to post informational threads. might as well delete my account, as basically useless.
