This one showed up. Were you starting new threads, or posting to current threads? Are other people posting to the threads you can't?

Did you ( inadvertently) use a banned word? There are many, that one might not think of....

Thanks I just discovered why it wouldn't post one of my words sounded like something not allowed who knew?

It does tell you in red letter if you use a banned word. I've tried to use banned words before and I had no idea there was anything wrong with them. I use those words when I talk to my mother and she doesn't look at me funny.

Hi nafecar

And the number of those words is growing. Pretty soon we won't be able to say "shut up or get lost". The Community Standards won't even let us mention the last name of 2 former Presidents of the United States. Ain't that nice? Historical names that just happen to sound like something that is planted in the ground and "a'hem", but really?

First thing I do when my post doesn't fly is look for the RED on the bottom of the page. I have been seeing it much more often as the PC work their way through limiting our 1st Amendment rights. But since this is a website owned by a company they can pretty much limit whatever they want.

A college cancelled a whole "Benefit for the Heart Foundation" function because it "offended 1 person". Hang on because if the people let it our language will be reduced to only 1 syllable words and worse.

err, this is a private board. There are no "freedoms" lost here.

Freedom of Speech is in regards to the GOVERNMENT. Not to private businesses. Some people need to understand that is what the 1st amendment means - that the GOVERNMENT will make no law in regards to free speech.

not a QVC chat board!! lol

Maybe it was a blessing. I've seen the most benign threads turn into arguments.

Posters here will argue about anything.
