technically, we all got censored since it seems all of the posts made in the thread have been deleted. I looked at my post history and the posts I made in the thread are not there.

True enough, we all did. Is it odd that it happened just when some started understanding the conversation?

I guess the Jay/mods had enough of the bickering. But again I find it odd the thread of deleted instead of locked.

No one was censored. I mean, maybe that’s what happened by the strictest definition of the word, but the connotation of “censor” is something much more insidious than what actually happened.

I didn’t see much more bickering in that thread than in many others…and I wasn’t even involved (except where I was dragged into the conversation against my will).

I believe it was the subject matter, not the bickering, that got it taken without word or warning. I know there is at least one person in the room walking around like a proud peacock even if we never know who it is. No-one was dragged in to the thread. Everyone had a choice to ignore or respond. If anyone chose to respond it was their own doing, they had something to say.

Oh well, so much for discussions that matter.

Believe what you wish. If you really want to complain talk to the mods.

Just so it is known, I am not the “proud peacock”.

I think he was referring to you mentioning him being fond of calling people names even though what little he had said so far in the thread wasn’t directed at you, or mean spirited, but at this point it doesn’t matter.

I was referring to all of the bickering in the thread. The bickering in the politics thread probably also had something to do with it.

This is fair. It was more about not being fond of certain practices especially considering we have newer, younger members, that have grown up with such things and the tragedy it can cause.

That means you can become one too. Just as long as you don’t disgrace the sacred parchment by wiping your bbq sauced fingers on it. 😃
