Is it possible t say one thing without it being deleted within half a minute along with the thread it's in?

What's become of NS that you need to do this? All I'm trying to do its express my opinion about what just happened and all I get in return is the Red Button.

I can't believe they deleted the Streaking thread. What will become of the forum if there is no streaking?

Im usually the last guy to take the side of the deated party.....

But I think they were a bit hasty in your case.

A warning would have sufficed.

It's now a politics only forum. The only problem is, it's the same tired issues that have now 'grown a beard'.

It's been a while since I've been there. Perhaps it is the place to go. I'm still a member of one of the 'special' groups :D

It seems this way to me too. But no amount of reasoning, explanation, cajoling, coaxing, or rational discussion will make a mod change his mind, admit he's wrong, or ressurrect a nation. Which is no great surprise - after all, you can see why they can't.

It's just a shame - i really thought you would have had a warning. I took TG's locking your thread to be a warning - it's like they punished you twice for the same offence.

Careful chaps, there is a thread about 3 pages down with a few deletions for discussing just this subject...

If they get cut about this then tough biscuts for them.

*shakes his head with a slight chuckle*

See? It really is simple. I've said several times that if you don't like the rules are here you're free to go somewhere else and either find or create something more to your liking. And you have. Actually, I support all of these endeavours because they make everyone happy. You're happy because you can do whatever you want and we're happy that the rules get followed.

Sure, but then this begs the question of wether your trying to attract people TO this site...or chase them away.

This deletion is in a bit of a shady area, as opposed to a MichealJackson666 attack....
Im just wondering why there was no warning at all before the action?

I mean...
You say she was spamming......ok..thats debatable, but understandable.
Look at the general forum right now....
How many "tavern" threads, or "homes for lost dogs and cats" threads are there?

What makes those any different?
Beucase the word "spam" appears in none of those?

Its a valid comparison.

But there's a difference between chat and spam... just.
i liked the word-games... there was a difference between word-games and spam too.
although in both cases they frequently over-lapped... just not always.

I wasnt trying to say that your thread is spam, or that it should be locked...
Just saying that its not much different that the one that BV got deated for.

Just so's ya know....

oh, i know that... i wasn't taking offence. and i do see your point... just i knew that chat threads are within the rules (current rules, anyway), so there must be a difference, right? :P
