Question Am I going senile?

I'm sure a couple of threads I've replied to have gone missing?

Anyone else having the same trouble?

I'm a bit like this

Which threads are you thinking of?
There have been a few contentious ones deleted today.

Only 2 threads that I'm aware of.

Think one of the US mods is doing it although I know tone still stealths the forum.

Probably better they went than stayed to be fair..

Well I rather they explain and lock rather than just delete but otherwise meh what can you do. Better to stop that kind of rubbish than make it have the forum look terrible.

And yes I know I was baiting the guy ALOT so didn't help. But it was fun. Heh.

I administer a few other forums and wouldn't let that kind of topic survive either...

Not sure if he got banned, and I dont believe its harsh. Dont be a prick and you dont get banned. This is a public forum and there have to be some rules to follow. Freedom of speach is one thing but their have to be boundaries when you are in a public place

The trouble is Carlos, if anyone is too specific, then this thread maybe pulled, which would be a shame as the cat gif is quite cool.

I can try a "safe recap" - but no gtee it will be safe:

a) thread started - I won't be specific, but it related to workers at a car wash - but it was interpreted by several as being inappropriate from a - well lets say 'racial tolerance' perspective

b) several posters point this out

c) poster defends his actions, missing the point somewhat that offence had already been caused

d) more lively debate, including amusing reference to "not the nine o'clock news" and constable savage.

e) poster implies that one poster is only complaining because he is [insert ethnic minority here]

f) thread dissappears, and quite right too. either because mod has deleted or OP has deleted inital post (not sure which)

Pause

g) another thread started to ban racists, but IMO that won't help - issue best put to bed and not given publicity - this thread also deleted

h) posts about cars resume and issue forgotten. I rediscover "Gerald the Gorilla" in the process which was nice.

g) amusing post with a moggie faceplanting some cling film started, with an oblique reference to the above. Some regulars question whats happening

i) OP not banned as far as I can see (usually it says "BANNED" under their ID on other posts - well that was certainly the case after "ryanair-gate" for some well known members ), but the OP has not posted either
