ORIGINAL: needlesandpins i admit i am going to comment on the moderation here in open view. the reason being that while it's fine that you have removed posts in connection to one item, i think it's pretty poor form to remove entire posts by users when certain sections don't even have anything to do with what you are removing. i personally had written things in my post that are meant for other people directly, or were about what is going on in my life. why remove it ask? i'm sure i'm not the only one who is wondering this, or finds it frustrating that we then have to either rewrite these things....hence kitkat's post above if i understand her correctly......or just thing fuck it and not bother. we all know you can remove sections of a post, so why not do that? i've asked the question in the open as i'm sure there are others who would like an answer too. i'm thinking an open answer will save you time in multiple replies if others ask, or just stop people being frustrated at the blanket deletion. If I can step in for a sec...... we do not edit posts.if we started doing that, can you not see in advance tuhe speculation on what was removed and how that puts us in an editorial position we do not want to be in? The safe thing to do is not to quote our reply to a post you feel will be pulled, or to word your reply to the topic and not any post you have a question about i can see how that works regarding particular threads, but in here it's pretty much easy to see the separate stuff. and posts do get sections deleted, for instance where emails, or numbers have been put in. so a little note, where the stuff relating to a pulled post was, to state it was moderated for that reson would be sufice. also, where mistakes are made on moderation, such as this was, it's actually not that bad to leave what was actually written. an appology on the mods part would go along way too. at least other people get to see what was going on, and the outcome, instead of little snippets. needles
