well, just want to share this clamor with regard to deleting posts! i made a post in a another forum (ok, what the hell, i'll name it - P800 forums) and maybe a/some mod/s didn't like it and decided to delete it! :evil:

nope, wasn't a post about warez, and nope wasn't any personal attack or anythng like that! it was merely a post explaining why i made such previous posts!!! :evil:

i have some idea who, but wouldn't bother dropping names! i just want to say that i feel it's pretty childish! you know why i respect people like muffy and izzo? because if they didn't like a certain post and felt it was sort of attacking them, they would reply and answer! I GUESS THIS IS WHY THIS PLACE IS CALLED A FORUM IN THE FIRST PLACE!!! but, deleting a post - nope, that's not izzo's and muffy's style. :evil:

i dont really give a tiny rat's ass about the post being deleted or the who delete it, - i just want to share - and hope this post won't be deleted as well! :evil:

The only people that can actually delete posts in the P800 forum are either the admins or the Mods of that forum, which sure excludes me! 😊

Anyways P800 modsare: All admins, upponalle ans AnasP800.

I wonder what you post was....and why would someone delete it without PMing you. :-?

my sentiments exactly! i posted that explaining why my conversation with hianwhee quite veered away from the main topic: pics taken by the P800! and when i checked this morning for the post and any replies it was gone! well, i dont really mind it now. its all released and out! thanks for the quick response!

Sean,i know the thread you are talking about,i posted there too and i really dont get what about yours or hianwhees posts was found offensive or warez related.
It seems that hianwhee got her warning in the same thread.

Aha!!! there you go! see what i mean! :x i was starting to think that's where hianwhee's warning came from! i smell something about that forum. there MIGHT (notice the stress on 'might' to avoid being offensive)be something dodgy goin on there! :x

thanks for the info, ghostdog! 😃 keep rockin' dude! 8)

I promise to look into this when I have a bit more time if anyone else has an instance of this happening please let me know.

Rafe

Rafe,

i do and i'm already dealing with it.

I will update you later on this evening when i can get to a PC.

I aim only to delete double postings to make things look neater. That said I have no powers in the P800 to my knowledge, and only went in there once or twice a few months back.

like i said, i have a pretty good idea who deleted it. but nobody can force me to drop names, well, unless it's rafe! 😃

i've already notice the action taken by the admin on this issue. 😉 thanks rafe and jizzo for the response - and any of the other mods who had a share in this response. 😃

justice has been served. 😉 😃 😉 😃 😉

Maybe there should be an e-mail sent notifying that the Thread that you are subscribing to has been deleted by so and so. Reason behind etc.

What do you guys think?

I haven't been around lately, unfortunately, but I will check with Rafe and J2theIZZO to get an update what is going on! 😮

[quote="AnasP800"]You know what sean, FAQ you 😃

i want to say something... but i can't be bothered stooping down to a lower level. 8)

peace out!!!

MODS CHECK THIS OUT PLEASSSEE!!! 😃 pathetic, yet funny! 😃

Can i just say at this point that I don't think this was aimed at you Sean (deleting) but it was more of a misunderstanding of the role played by a moderator. Which i now feel has been understood by the persons involved.

I definitely agree Jizzo.
I think that post deletion mishap has been just that,a mishap,nothing more.
I'm not taking anyones side here and i really feel that "FAQ you" and "MODS CHECK THIS OUT PLEASSSEE!!!" posts should stop.

look, i never intended anybody to be taken out from where they were, i never demanded that! i never even mentioned a name at one time. it wouldn't even have bothered me if nothing was done about the whole thing! i was happy some people did something to answer the issue. the thing is - admin never mentioned to me nor explained anything with regard to it! i noticed it on my own. if i knew it was never aimed at me (deleting) well and good! but that fact is, it was never mentioned! not an email from jizzo or rafe! i could have been happy knowing about the whole story and there could have not been a problem between me and Anas! but now, he (Anas) posted this crap (FAQ U) for me!!! :x now, is it just me, or that was really aimed at me, dead center!? :evil: you guys tell me! :x
