Conspiracy confirmed

I've had my thread entitled "Does boards.ie support totalitarian censorship?" completely deleted from this forum with no explanation, no notice, nothing. It's a if it never existed even though it had two replies, one of which was from a moderator from another section of boards.ie. Imagine that. :rolleyes: So, this is one…

Threads like this never end well. There's a sitewide rule which states that moderating decisions are not to be discussed outside of Feedback and Helpdesk, which is why I assume the other thread was deleted.

If you keep posting about the issue outside of those 2 forums and ignore the warnings not to do so, you'll most likely get a ban.. and it's not worth it really

What question's did he ask?

When did he ask them?

On what thread?

On what forum?

Who did he ask these questions?

How many questions can one poster ask before being banned?

Can you make your questions sound like suggestions and avoid the ban?

Why is a freemason running boards?

Is devore a shapeshifter?

Does he eat babies?

Does he invite cmods round to his place for sex orgies?

I made a thread in the Bargain Alerts section "bargain alerting" users of the very cheap prices on some of the sexlines on the Sky Digital channels, namely Dirty Talk (sky digital 920) offering 35p per min, and Filth (sky digital 921) offering 50p per min.

It was deleted without any warning or explanation the day after.

demonspawn is probably butthurt because a mod warned him several times to stop being an idiot, I think he was eventually banned for a week.

Must have been the most exciting 17.5p you ever spent.

Yeah I posted in that thread, It was a Valid Point being raised in the CT Forum,

'are Some of the Mods openly Biased and Hostile to CT?'

Obviously by the deletion of the thread we get our answer.

Scofflaw is a law unto himself, he is Definitley hostile to CT, and rather Rude, Condesvending Arrogant & Ignorant towards anyone who posts something he disagrees with.

The thread should not have been deleted IMO as it was rather relevant to the CT forum.

AAAAAAANYWAY, I suggest we wait til Bonkey gets back and ask him to have a word with Scofflaw,

Ok, points have been made and hopefully they've been taken on board by the relevant parties.

Requesting this thread be locked before it descends into madness. (comparatively speaking, of course )

There was a thread on how to build free energy devices on one the forums and it vanished .
That is serious suppression .

This one? http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055697660
Was moved to lifehacking, and any thing that was promised from "free energy" supporters never arrived.

And for clarification, I deleted the last thread as it was full of accusations against Boards users, was full of abuse, didn't belong here. I'd have deleted this one, but Bonkey got to it first. This is not a conspiracy, it's enforcing the charter (which, as Bonkey points out, we were asked to do more rigidly).

I don't see the issue... there is a clear charter for the forum and every forum on boards.ie. If you want to post you have to follow them, as does everyone else. Every time I've been infracted or told to cool it I have without question been breaking or bending the rules. Given the constant crying from some people in here with the slightest criticism of their beliefs you think they'd be glad of these strict rules.

Somehow, I missed demonspawn's request to have this thread locked.

Thread locked...and I've removed my now-obsolete posts from earlier today
