Do the mods EXPLAIN when then delete your thread??

I just started a thread which asked a question...

Then, **POOF**, it was gone. I didn't think it was anything inappropriate.

They ought to tell me what I did wrong. Otherwise, how will I ever learn? :p

    I agree, I moderate another music site and I do send out an email as to why a thread was deleted. However not when I move a thread or if it's spam or porn. Actually spammers get banned.

    I don't think they usually do tell you why. You can usually figure it out yourself.

    ha! it would be a miracle of the mods took responsibility for their actions but alas they don't...it seems like right now the uptight mods are in charge so posting anything other than the normal boring crap is out....maybe next week the usually sane and sometimes fun kat and sea will return...until then, let's be careful out there ;):)

    When they show up at your house at midnight tonight, they'll tell you. Depending on how severe it was determines how many fingers they break.

    You'd think so, huh? But, in this case, I really don't know where I erred. I'm not that schmart. :p

    Some users have been taken to a small dark room and been beaten about the head with thick pieces of insulated wire...

    It's pretty bad sometimes... I've lost a finger on my right hand.

    It's my fault for clicking on "I agree" when signing up....that's what my lawyer tells me.
    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    You mean the thread with DVD in the Subject Line?

    The band has not okayed videotaping their shows and they respectfully request that people not do it.

    How can someone need artwork for a videotape that doesn't exist?

    The Posting Guidelines at the top of every forum usually explain any deletions. Thanks for reading them over again...everyone agreed to them when registering.

    Alrighty, then. Copy that. Live and learn.

    I think I've now learned #6 and #9 (or was this a #10?) the hard way. :(

    I love this place, so please don't ban me :eek: but, really, are rules number 2, 3 and/or 4 ever followed? :confused: or is the Moving Train exempt? :p
