WTF! have the government taken over acorn?

So your now just going to delete my posts if I say anything controversial? Can someone give a reason why my post in the domains for sale section was deleted yesterday and nothing mentioned? It was hardly abusive!

Are you going to delete a post anytime someone doesn't like it?
The truth often hurts!

If this sort of shit is going to happen I won't bother!

Adult domains moved to Adult section?

stender · 31-08-2007, 04:03:07 PM

what?

No, I replied to a thread in the domains for sale section mentioning that he was selling a domain for �50 which I had listed as available a few days prior and didn't even get a thank you. He then goes on to tell me how he regged that 2 letter combination off his own back. Which I pointed out was b*llshit.
It went on from there but nothing major and lo and behold, deleted today!

Any swearing etc etc I'm sure I'd want to delete the post.. might be worth removing the bull word

stender · 31-08-2007, 04:33:57 PM

There was no swearing and bullsh*t wasn't in the post.

I doubt admin can recover it to get a consensus if it was right to delete.

I am looking into this and will get back to you.

Admin will look into the whos and whys but Stender, you should know better than to post in a sales thread, no matter how annoying it might be.

Many a time I have thrown something across the room because I _really_ want to post in a sales thread.

I moved the comments out of the thread Stender. Its not a case of me taking sides or supporting one member over another. The rules state that there should be no comments in sales threads and in this case that thread was ready to get out of control!
