Its inconsistent @Spurt.

I just don't want anybody to think I restarted

a deleted thread because I didnt

do that.

          Try not to worry about it, @newziesuzie.   I think most posters know you wouldn't knowingly repost a closed or removed thread.   Likely it was an error on the part of the person who reported it, or maybe a misunderstanding by the moderator.   Life goes on...

No, it discussed what temp we keep the a/c at; It wasn't a controversial thread at all until a few started invoking names of politicians.

Here are a few of the key areas that you should be aware of before posting in the Community:

  • Controversial topics will be removed – Discussions of a controversial or confrontational nature will be removed at our discretion. The following are examples of topics that generally create a negative dialogue between Community members which will result in removal of the discussion and possible banning: current events, politics, religious beliefs, and unkind comments about hosts, vendors, models, or employees.

Honestly I disagree, calling people fearful bigots seems to be common when you aren't on a certain side of an issue here.........


@SydneyH  Excellent point!  A few comments were removed how did that one slip byI ..... again inconsistency!

Just about every thread has responses "pro and con".

 

Lots of them go on and on and on.

It morphed into a scolding thread for posters who were using natural resources to excess and keeping the house cool. You know, the usual stuff that gets deleted around here. Political stuff even was discussed.

I don't see how a poster who isn't on this board constantly would even know if a thread about the subject had already existed and been deleted.

That was a different older thread

about air conditioning.

Mine was just a new one about hot temps.

@Mj12  I think your right, I think perhaps there was a misunderstanding I think the thermostat topic and this one were two different issues.  How one keeps cool in the heat versus higher than normal climate/weather changes compared to the past....

 

I think I replied to a comment I shouldn't have....but no politicians were named...it was more of a local view from where I live and local issues we have here...but I apologize for my part of that one...
