Then don't post here. It's a private message board and the Powers That Be can make or break any rule they wish to.

@FuzzyFace  I agree they can make the rules but I strongly disagree that they should be breaking them.

That means inconsistent moderation and is a major factor for discontent.

Applying Standards can be all about perception when it comes to what is arguing or insulting or any other reasons in those instances; and let's face it-some posters get to skate by at times while others are booted off the thread.

Or voted off the island for good. 

@croemer and I had a silly thing going on about Whataburger at each other and the mod on duty removed our posts because we were "fighting".  We had to call her out and explain what it was all about and she reinstated the posts.  We weren't even picking at each other; she likes their burger, I don't.

That's what I'm trying to say; we get posts removed because they are "religious" but post lecturing about a religion stay.

You just have to scratch your head and decide if it is all worth it or not.

Don’t forget poo-pourii. 

Ps. I miss Croemer. She was so funny and kind.

you can then include a link that is NOT live, but can be copied and pasted by those interested. the other option is just to put part of the article in, then say, for example, via the washington post and include the name of the article.

Yes, that is probably the only way to post unless you want the post removed.

I liked to give links....  because  those times I did not  give a link previously,  certain posters would comment :

"YOU NEED LINKS  to verify the  information.... and it not being considered plagiarism. "

 can not win for losing....

If your thread was removed because the link included inappropriate sidebars, then just check your link next time.

I don't think it's unduly difficult to discuss most subjects here and remain within Standards.

@suzyQ3   On some  of the links... the side bars change so you never know what is going to be there... I think it is petty..... but,   I know the rules of these forums and respect  the moderators decisions.

  I just will not  post controversial or  interesting  threads on my own.... at least   what I find interesting.....  anymore. Easy. Done.

@SeaMaiden  So TRUE! Also, your last comments are hilarious 

[sunshine45]

if the deleted thread was about the family who perished.......here is what you can do..... no live links included.

via fox news, by gregg re

2nd family may have perished in same California county as Hart clan, police say

Just weeks after the Hart family perished in a fatal plunge from an ocean overlook along the Pacific Coast Highway in Northern California, rescuers are searching for another family feared to have driven into water in the same county.

Authorities said that a vehicle, which witnesses identified as possibly a Honda Pilot SUV, vanished after falling into the rain-swollen Eel River in Mendocino County around 1 p.m. Friday.

That's the same area where a family of four that vanished during a road trip from Portland, Ore., to their home in Santa Clarita, Calif., is last known to have been, the San Jose Police Department told the Associated Press.

The thing that really gets me is that it doesn't seem to matter if the ARTICLE you link to is free of politics, if appears now that if there's anything at all on the page that's political, it's deleted. That's going to include any legitimate news site. That seems like it's going way too far.
