Moved means it's censored. Basically it's transferred to the fight club thanks to diatribe between Scorpion King and RedKite, where there was foul language used.

Apparently not, every post is copyright protected. Deleting it would be an infringement for which You can even be arrested and deported! :lol:

If ur really keen on the signatures, why don't you start another thread?

@ Vera.

So, is there a prize given once you have decided which was the best signature? Didn't realize this was a contest. :scratch:

Hey it wasn't that bad....I mean there was no abusive language there....guess the Mods moved it coz there was someone who said something nasty about the sage....I am not sure...but it was sure bad about the sage.

Sage you are cool... :wink:

We can edit individual posts, but it takes time so in most cases it's just easier to move/delete the entire thread. Mods have lives too you know.

Moving threads from a public forum where lots of people contribute to a part only available to a few defeats the object of my post and the forum as a whole. Someone suggested here 'why not just start a new thread on the same topic' also is folly as eventually someone will deem it worthy of censoring and it's only a matter of time before that is moved to a locked part of the forum. On other forums (UAE) the mods just delete the controversial content and put an explanation saying 'deleted due to abusive content'.

For me to rack up 100 posts to gain access to Fightclub would take months unless I start to make random, out of context, boring posts like we notice from some users which dilutes the quality of the content and debate into meaningless waffle which isn't why most register.
