It's none of my business if posters want to complain.  That's between them and the real, professional moderators.

This seems to be a dictate from a wannabe.  It's not even worded as a request; it's issued as a command, an order.

Wannabe, here. You should stop reading your own narrative into posts because you're wrong. 

It's a simple statement telling people to grow up and realize a deleted post isn't the end of the world. Q owns this site and can do anything it wants with it. End of story.

I respect moderators and their jobs. What becomes a problem is when posters see themselves as assistant moderators and their job is to take over b/c the moderator isn''t doing a job well enough to suit them.

Stay in your lane....

I think it's childish when posters report other posters. Very little is written that warrants that.

@CalminHeart  I could be wrong, but I think the latest spate of postings is in regard to this updated modification to the forum rules:

The update of this rule allowed the mods to remove a regular Friday post that has been going on for years with apparently no objection.

Sorry, I can't seem to make it larger.

@PA Mom-mom Where did you see this? It isn't in the Standards on the left of the Forum under Quick Links. I FOUND IT. I see it now under Welcome, Get Started. It was never added to the Standards. In the Standards, the discussion has to become controversial to be deleted. I remember seeing something from the moderators a few years ago that it was OK to say things like Seasons's Greetings, Merry Christmas because they were just casual greetings, but don't remember where I saw this.

Thank you for explaining it to me. I didn't know what it meant. Now I do. So thanks again.

Thanks and agree @Carolina925 , hope to read you in another thread...until then...

We can respect a moderator's job and rules; however, that doesn't mean at all that we must agree with their decisions or change our minds about anything.

It's their forum, we just are not permitted to "argue" or "debate" with them about it.

Fair or not, that's the way the cookie crumbles.

So many good people have left. Boards now are bland

and uninteresting. People are either scared of others

jumping on their opinion and starting a 'flame' with others joining the mob or figure it's a waste of time to

post because it will get poofed.

I like the information you can glean and the most recent world news. Only reason I stay.

@SharkE Only?    It's not me?

@Sooner  LOL your one of the goodies.   Starting that book soon. 'A Touch of Gold'.

[Sooner]

@SharkE I enjoy you and your posts.  You are "real" and I love that!  Have fun today!  

Been thinking about you!  We got a Breville toaster over/air fryer/convection oven yesterday--haven't had one in years!  And it's WHITE.  They had it in RED, but the white matches the counters and cabinets in the area where it is going.  We haven't had one of these in 25 years.

It will replace (I am sad about this) the SMEG white toaster!

@Sooner    Aren't you sweet. Shame, we don't live closer. I could aggravate you all the time. LOL Just kidding.

SMEG has great products.  Just bought a pricey

Barefoot dreams sweater (Fashion forum post).

this is my 4th one. Just love how they don't wrinkle and

just throw on , no muss, no fuss.

Be glad when Tx hits Fall. Wish it would rain !
