Yes, true, but the room will eventually talk her around to it's point of view.

The rest of this post has gone through pre-censoring system to remove the need for a mod to delete it.

I wasn't really referring to the person in the thread but merely using the thread as an example of how some threads/posts are moderated and others are not, even when distinctly in breach of the forum rules.
in response to Neils post it wasn't you Neil so you can breathe easy.
Taking this subject to it's very extreme. Accyweb is advertised as a discussion forum and discussion by it's very nature is an argument. If therefore argumentative posting is prohibited, so in turn is discussion, ergo is Accyweb not in breach of advertising laws?

Re: Editing and deleting posts.
Geez it's like court room in here talking of which mods main job is to remove spam and keep the forum ticking over so that it runs smooth and to add a further point in accordance with legalities as this site is paid for by the owner means some discussion or posts can't be permitted other wise no forum!

Seems so sometimes.
Judge, jury, and executioner rolled into one.
All the crowds outside.
Waiting to see which way the wind's blowing...that particular day.

Re: Editing and deleting posts.
precisely! the point is that discussion,debate and argument are all part and parcel of accyweb as is the fact that people's opinions are different and therefore automatically argumentative of each other. So therefore maybe it is the system and the rules that are at fault. However it does not deter from the fact that whatever the rules are they apply to EVERYONE and must be followed by EVERYONE and must be moderated EQUALLY. But as you say stanleymad if the rules were followed to the letter in ALL cases of argumentative behaviour there would be no forum at all. So when does moderation become excessive?
to moderate or not to moderate THAT is the question.

Re: Editing and deleting posts.
Mods don't get paid purely voluntary personally think it's become a witch hunt rather than genuine reasons or constructive help towards end of thread IMHO, this thread alone has broken rule of publically questioning mods, if any other thread/post breaks rules and nothing has been done please use the report button, as we're human and can miss things. Sorry but This thread is now closed and any points raised will be discussed with all moderators.

Re: Editing and deleting posts.
The mods contrary to popular views are human too and can make mistakes
we can only do our best.
If you have a problem please use the report button or pm system.
if you don't we might miss something which is quite easy on a big site like this.
we do need your help.
end of thread
