Title: This is seriously pissing me off!
Post by: DuckRA2 on May 31, 2010, 07:37:47 PM
Could the admins and moderators please stop deleting topics? it is starting to seriously piss me off. Instead could you lock it and maybe tell us what the reason was for it? I just made a n00by quote topic... No idea why it got deleted,  :confused:  I'm not sure if anyone even replied to it.

sorta wondering about this... not moderated? ya right  :ermm:

That is Playground......Chatterbox IS moderated (Just it is very lenient)
 
I was tired of the crap in the S32 topic and yours was similar, and there was ALREADY a "quote" topic. Post in it and don't start any more flame wars (not that you started the last one)

I agree with Duck. I first came on here today and saw the S32 topic and I was like "oh, I will read that when I get home". When I got home I spent 10 minutes looking for it, before realizing that it "magically" disappeared. It is pretty annoying.

It grew to about 30 pages of fighting back and forth and had to be stopped.

Wow that was quick it was 8 when I saw it. I think there was a second topic too... I know I saw it on the front page called "Solving the problem between S32 and Reier" or something like that.

Because lDl can't shut up and listen and serge was trolling Marvel lad for thinking ACAMS would ban people for having opinions different to his, causing him to leave. (WOOHOO!)
 
Honestly, ACAMS could have moved them to amusement, and let the whole thing sort itself out there.

What about a 'Sparring' section, where threads that develop into flame-fests could be moved to just burn itself out....eis nihilo...?

I'm with Duck as well. I try to check out posts in the tournament signup/discussion sections only to find ACAMS deleted the topic within 3 minutes of posting something himself, therefore totally negating the point of posting anyway. And nobody gets to see what's so wrong with the tournament.

Atleast I didn't.

Unfortunately when internet egos are factored in, flame wars very rarely "sort themselves out." Grudges are then carried back over into the rest of the forum, and eventually all heck breaks loose.

Grudges are carried over into the rest of the forum when the outlet for frustration is removed.

And that is why I left it there for 30 pages......EVERYBODY that needed to vent DID vent, but now it is over and we need to get on with our normal activities.

Wait, what?

I try to view your posts on the "recently posted" section and it can't find it.
And I can't find the actual topic manually searching.

Why not just lock it? It was a good read.

Because you would froof-read it and see where somebody (not Somebody) got the best of you and you would be steaming and probably start a new topic to tell them off real good and then that would start it all over again.

Move along....nothing to see here.
