I only read yesterday afternoon, it must have gotten political after that point.

A lot of good info was on that thread.

Nope...didn't happen.

Well we did get a lecture on socialism lol

Nope didn't happen you are re-writing history.

Nope.Maybe you didn't see it (I'm not going to insult you like you just did me) but Baddestdog told us we were on the road to socialism. Kiss

Hi, voyager! I saw the post you referred to. It was on the last page I was reading, and I was sort of sitting on my hands, trying to decide whether to jump in and debate the definition of socialism ... then Webbie took care of it for me.{#emotions_dlg.laugh}

I think that solved the puzzle of why it went poof dooB. Forbidden subject.

I posted there late last night and although the whole thread was what I might call "spirited", it wasn't "Mean-spirited", it was a debate with differing opinions and information. I saw it up until about 2:30 a.m. and there was nothing I thought should have caused it to be taken down at that point ... it was well over 200 replies.


It amazes me that one person can take offense and have an entire thread removed.

Thin skinned people should not be on forums.

Hi, golfcartrider! I seriously doubt "one person" can have a thread removed -- unless you mean the "one person" is the moderator, or perhaps the originator of the thread (I've heard of people reporting their own thread, hoping to have it deleted).

Probably because it was political (socialism etc) & controversy & those seem to be the catchalls?

Btw Webbie poofs posters can't poof. (:

Is this the Good Morning thread?

No one used the word or even inferred socialism...NO ONE.

They most certainly did!!! Must have been when you ""didn't see it"".

The OP also brought up p o l i t i c s...duh.

dooB, maybe we need to add that to our list of "banned" words, which is growing by leaps and bounds! I didn't see that reference. {#emotions_dlg.w00t}

I don't think webbies work overnights. A lot of things last through the night and then get poofed in the morning.

Hey, there, brii! I'm pretty sure there's no moderation between about 1:30 a.m. and 7:30 a.m. I'm a night owl and I can attest to the fact that even the most outrageous posts hang around during those hours. (Also, when we could see the Members Online, I never saw Q Team names on the list during those times.) Hope I don't get in trouble for saying that -- if I disappear you'll know why ... {#emotions_dlg.scared}

Hi dooBdoo, one person can start the chain reaction of others following.

I have reported my own threads in hopes of getting deleted when it starts going in the wrong direction

When politics or religion comes into play you can bet the thread will be deleted.

Don't worry, be Happy!

'Morning, Preds and Kittymom! Yep, I think there's probably a long list of those words.{#emotions_dlg.laugh}

Ding, ding!!

It's ironic that the OP is the one who went off and has no clue how that happened.

Voyager...now you quit re-writing history, ya hear? LOL
