Sometimes My Posts Disappear...

Postby AbramIsaac » Nov 29th, '11, 21:13

It's usually because I've posted something that seems out of line before closer inspection.

That leads me to believe that some misguided soul is deleting the odd post of mine from time to time in an effort to keep forum standards high. While I appreciate the favor, because it seems to keep me from getting any points--big ups to whoever is watching my back--I do take issue with it, because the few times I have noticed it happening are when I'm actually on topic.

The first time in recent memory was the Why do people change when they get in a relationship thread. My reply was Oxytocin, and a picture of the chemical structure of said hormone. You'll see it there now, because I reposted the comment with an expletive and a very short description.

The second time was in the thread Joe Frazier Dies :(. My post was "I guess Muhammed Ali won in the end, after all." Wow, dick move, right? Totally lacking taste, and completely off-topic, right?

Wrong.

My post was actually meant to provoke a discussion on a little tidbit I had heard on BBC about Joe Frazier's death. It was from a good friend of his, a man I believe to be Muhammed Ali's former manager. Something like that. Either way, he was connected to both fighters. He said that Joe Frazier never let the fights go, and that he spoke on Ali's condition, saying something along the lines of "I guess I won in the end after all, eh? Look at him, and look at me."

I wasn't baiting, I was making a statement that this man himself made. Granted, it wasn't incredibly tasteful, but I don't feel that it was too out of line. Anyway, it doesn't matter, because I didn't bother to repost it anyway. I was thinking of deleting it myself, but returned to find it missing.

So someone deleted my seemingly-crude-but-on-topic-post. Either that, or I got too fucked up--such things happen from time to time--and forgot that I deleted it. In which case, this is an indictment on myself, not the TRShady mod crew at all. And maybe the first case was some sort of glitch, that just randomly deleted my post.

I don't want this to turn into some sort of retarded fucking movement against the Moderators due to censorship. Please don't misunderstand me there. You people bitch and moan all the time, and the fact that these motherfuckers don't send your email to every spam site in the world is a gift from the gods. I think they all do a good job, and this was probably done in some sort of attempt to keep me from racking up points or something.

Or...

Maybe I'm fucking insane. Maybe this forum doesn't exist at all, and I'm just typing on a computer that isn't even plugged in, much to the horror of the people surrounding me in this bullshit Midwestern McDonald's. Or maybe someone deleted a couple posts that seemed out of line.

Maybe I'll delete this shit too, before it's ever seen by anyone. Maybe we should just say fuck it, and start worshiping the horses now, before they come to power and make us worship them. Or something like that.

I think it's Chet, and he has some strange fetish for deleting random posts :unsure:

I don't pay attention enough to tell whether or not it has happened to me. I'm guessing it has, considering I say some really off-topic shit. Oh well. At least the people my posts are intended for see them before they're deleted. That way I still win.
