Attention Please! Jan 17, 2010
Hey guys,

Please do not use "tor.ture", "s.ex", "rap.e" or other related words in your threads' topics, because any links with these words in it is banned and they can not be opened in countries like Iran.
thanks

Thanks for the heads up Melika, wasn't aware, I'll try and change the other thread heading, but the link contains this word and that I can't change.

Your obviously trying to stir something here, the third post in this thread is from Robby G. Mods can edit single posts within a thread but the single post cannot be completely deleted, I will demonstrate the maximum that can be done on a single post after this one.

After looking at the possibilities again and noting that it is now (New Forum Layout) possible to delete individual threads, I can only say that if the 3rd post was deleted as said, then it was not done by yours truly.

Arnie, whats this for non-sensible answer?
A moderator should be neutral and non-selective in his actions. It should be clear to everyone what the rules are and why contributions are moderated. So please explain whats going on here...

With these kind of arguments, the quality of DF goes down very rapidly just while an increase would be welcoming.

I suggest the moderators become more transparant from now on. This situation is unworkable for fair and balanced opinions on DF.

Robby

Sage and i continue to repeat ourselves. We both moderate as "we" see fit in accordance with our intepretation of the guidelines. Personal attacks or abuse will not be tollerated here. End of.................

I agree that others may not have the same interpretation as Sage and i, but thats life.

We cant please all the people all of the time, only some of the people some of the time.

And if this thread starts to go around and around in circles again on this subject i will lock it.

Get real mate, you lock the thread because we discuss the moderators on DF?

You have authoritarian issues. The moderators at DF have lived a little to long among autocratic regimes. The influence is obvious :blackeye:

I thought you earned more respect mate. Boy was I wrong. :drunken:

I replied too quickly. Fair enough. I figure it was one of you. Frankly whilst I've notice you post sometimes with matter unreleated to moderating all I ever read from arniegan is I"m a moderator if you dont like it leave, blah blah. Sad really.

Robby, I should have just read your post first would have saved me a few strokes in saying the same thing (and which others here have said repeateadly) :oops: :oops: . Prediction: post from arniegang reminding us who is "boss" and either a thread lock or move to fight club. Life goes on however.

Yeah, some people just wanna extort influence with no credibility at all. In the end, if we hold on to strong arguments, the strong will outlast the weak in life. Its a natural process.

Keep the puppy kickin' mate.

Autocratic idiocracy. Thats what the incompetent like in order to be able to exort influence. He wouldn't ever be moderator on a Western forum. People would simply demand a change in moderation.

I'll bet you a penny for it. :wink:

Getting warner but you must have more shots than in a revolver chamber.

I see you are also a "fan" of the the useless netnannies here. The sad souls are actually delusion to the idea that being a moderator gives them some moral or actual authority over anonymous non-real world posters. I would not be suprised if in addition to deleting posts they threaten banning people (although I have not heard that threat yet but I have not been here too long).
