    Deleting threads, stupid or not

    I find it funny that some threads were JUST deleted, I was looking at them literally 1 minute ago, tried to post, then they were gone. FFS is that what it's coming to? How about leaving them up so other AOers can join in. Dont like the content, don't go into them. I think its a joke that AOers can't discuss things that bother them about the forum. There were no bad things going on, whoever took it off simply didn't like the content. Yes AO is a private deal, but without the members, there would be no AO. So sad.

      i run a webforum myself and sell a product through it, we arent as big as this site but still. We pride ourself in free speech and anti-banning. The respect from that has resulted in nill spam and couple that with a regisration that prevents spam bots we rarely see spam. just my .02$. dont believe me pm me for the address i'd rather not have it be public. top 40,000 in alexa, 16k members 60+ users online @ night 200 during peak.

          I for one think the point came across to the powers that be. I do not think a mass exodus is needed there are a lot of good people here a 'few' need not ruin it for everyone, whether they are justified or not.

          I do think this forum still has a lot to offer folks, and we are seeing a resurgence of members to AO via moving over to mags, mainly the woodsballers and scenario players. Should we as members of this community (help) ruin it for them? Personally no even though I am probably just as guilty of helping ruin what is and should be a great community to belong to and participate in.

          Personality conflicts can and will happen, people in power can and will overstep their bounds as well. Remember we are all still just humans, not perfect machines.

          The intent of bringing this to light should not be to smear or attack anyone personally but to just make people think before they act, post, or hit a delete button. This goes for both sides.

              why are you'll dragging this out. i'm sitting on the fence laughing. it's all a pointing game. for all your efforts, all your doing is adding a bunch a fuel to the fire, and what are you gonna get in return? i'm gonna miss BigEvil and RogueFactor, but it's not like they have disappear off the face of the world or the web for that matter. i know rules are rules, sometimes they get bent and sometimes they get broken but for the most part, the problems lays between those that got banned and the ones that banned them. if you don't like it, then go over and join them over on PBlegion. no one is forcing you to stay. on the other hand i've been a member of this forum a long time and like anything in this world we all have to go through a cycle. this isn't the first time this has happen and it won't be the last. i was a member of this forum before this all happen and will be for as long as it last. i'll join PBLegion just so i can stay on top of the newest from RPG. point is your fighting an endless fight. choose your battles. peace "P"

                  Well ITS not funny Really.

                  Ok I moved it here. The others were removed for various reasons. Its to bad like you said. There were many Posts worth quoting.

                  So lets try it here and see how it goes.

                  Oh ya I would also like to say I am sorry to the members who took the time to make a good post in those threads that were removed.

                    what you gonna do about it? boycot? talk more hot air? ur letting a mod prove how much control he has over your feelings. rather the mod is wrong or right, does it really matter to get all bent out of shape over? for God's sake this is childish.

                          Hmm good post. Ya I looked. Yours is one that was removed.

                          Some simple removals was better then lots of bans.
