Me thinks it does not exist on this board any longer, certian threads keep getting deleated

Yep.....and certain posters are being censored.....just sayin'.

This is definitely not an "equal opportunity" board to say the least.

I hope everyone is happy now......boring as he// !!

I think many of us felt censored.

Trust me when I tell you......it's not always who you think it is.

Have a nice day. Smile


Try to stay cool in the NY heat and humidity. Smile

No prob.....cool and dry now for a few days.

When you're actively posting on a private shopping forum, it is their rules.

With that said.., I believe part of the blame is on too many posters pushing the report button, calling corporate, emotionally sensitive posters who cannot handle opposing views, they start Suggestion Box threads complaining of fellow posters behavior when they don't see their own behavior is questionable as well. Yes, I've kept up reading here and the board is what they aimed for "a policed board." It's now on the verge of boring and the ones who screamed the loudest are all but gone.

HiYa kalypso...so good to see you,,,been too long! And Amen...

People asked for the moderation to be tightened up and now it has been. Remember the recent Q Poll?

I just tried to post some funny pictures of cats with captions or signs hanging around their necks that had the word "fem*inism" in them. After a few minutes, they all disappeared! Apparently a cat who doesn't care about femi*nism and only cares about TUNA is not allowed on the boards! I haven't decided whether that's funny or pathetic!{#emotions_dlg.rolleyes}{#emotions_dlg.confused1}

What do you guys really think? Does ONE person hitting ""report"" carry enough weight to get a response poofed? Ten people hitting report? Does the OP carry more weight if they want something on ""their"" thread removed? Or do moderators work independently and poof'em as they see 'em?????

Hello kittymomNC!

OT : did you see where I posted to you on one of the song/video threads?

I really, really enjoyed that video of "Believe" by Brooks & Dunn you posted. Never saw that one before even though the song was long a favorite of mine.
