Please let innocent threads about inspiration continue, webbie deletes them yet certain ones continue to be allowed- what's up with that?

They're allowed on Among Friends, just not on Viewpoints. Is that a problem? Seems like a fair compromise to me.

No, clover, it isn't a problem- thank you.. but one is being followed on Viewpoints and another was quickly poofed this morning from Viewpoints- doesn't seem fair to me.

Suzie what was the thread that found itself poofed? Webbie deletes the highly religious threads or preaching threads on VP I have noticed. IMHO they can be considered **controversial** whereas a good wishes positive thoughts thread would not meet the Q Standards violation of controversial.

It was an innocent good wishes positive thread, no bible verses or preaching... a few of us answered, it was a happy, light conversation & poof gone. I suppose we can't actually have happy positive thoughts unless webbie approves it, something very innocent & fun.. yet they let some controversial threads continue..

If it relies on the personal beliefs or opinion of the particular Webmaster on duty at the time I don't see how it can be fair to all. There should be definitive guidelines.

I have seen beautiful inspirational, positive, kind threads poofed, and some very long, personal opinionated, specific religious based concepts preached ad nauseum on many threads here. I can't see how they are justified as to what goes and what stays, but it usually seems very backwards to me.

Yet the Community Standard Rules state that religion, like politics, are not allowed to be

discussed via different viewpoints here, but the Webmaster's don't seem to adhere to the rules pertaining to this.

Makes it tough on everyone. There should be consistency for all for it to be fair.
