[quote name='Moxio']I understand when heavy innuendo posts are deleted. Ex. Hey, where can I mod my Circle? That can be deleted fine, no problems from me. But what about when legit posts are deleted? Not once. Not twice. Not 10 times. Not 20 times.
Dozens of times. Then entire legitimate threads get deleted, and everyone's pissed off at the
mods because they are being unfair and they are putting their own piracy context into posts. THAT is when I truly start to separate mods from the OTTers because they are not acting like OTTers; they are acting like bullies who are unwilling to admit they were wrong. That is why the mods and the posters are split.[/quote]First things first. Go back around post 160ish to 195 of this thread, and you'll see you're talking to the wrong person on this issue. I dont know the lingo, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
Second, why be mad at the mods when it was other OTTers who've kept posting crap which has been (in my understanding) repeatedly and explicitely stated as a huge trip to ban city? You try posting Avast Ye Mateys anywhere else on this board and you're out. So why keep posting that in here? What is the motivation?
You guys all know how to contact each other through other methods, and yet all I keep hearing about are the same names over and over posting piracy related garbage. Some of y'all just hate authority in any form or position so you're going to hate the mods no matter what. But the truth of the matter is that the simplest solution to the problem would be to just keep that off the boards in the first place.
Now again, I dont speak your language. So I cant comment intelligently on whether legitimate posts have been deleted, or y'all are crying wolf when your just ticked that your post was deleted because someone saw what you did there.
Just yesterday, a pair of posts from Mojimbo and I were deleted, just because he asked what version of Photoshop I recommended and I told him to get CS3 because it was, and I quote, "easiest to obtain". Wubb took that in an extreme piracy context, and eventually the entire thread was deleted.
Give the dude a break. He's a penguin.
I dunno Mox. Why not just say, it's the cheapest?
Easiest to obtain does sound like it's meaning something other than,
it's easiest to find in the stores.
And everyone stop posting. I need to attend to someting else for a few minutes.
