Certain things don't belong...

[boardman]

...On hooker boards.

Such as:

1) Posting personal info even if it is on yourself. It never has and never will end well. Thinck before posting.

2) Deleting of posts. Isn't this a nuclear rule?

3) Mods closing threads at their own discretion.

4) Mods deleting threads altogether that just happen to specifically question that mod's ability.

5) Discussion of the contents of a private forum in the public arena.

6) Modtard meltdowns.

Fritz has deleted this post once. It was a little shorter the first time.

I thought Pleasantville was a fictional place. Oh, look, colors...

As far as I can tell, your comments have added no value whatsoever to this forum. I am ok if everything you have to say gets deleted with extreme prejudice. The MODS are fully justified and supported in doing so, wish they could just ban you instead of having to deal with you at all.

Well that's not very hospitable. What was worthy of a vacation?

You'll be fine with that until your post gets deleted. Mods have to follow the rules as well. Mods are accountable for their actions. How can they earn your respect if they selectively enforce the rules or worse yet interpret them to fit their own agenda.

My original comment in the previous thread did add some value, IMO. It was to let someone know that posting of their private information on a hooker board was not a good idea. There is nothing in my comment that would indicate malice. You interpret it that way because it lacked sympathy. Don't confuse my innocuous comment with those of another poster.

Every notice how hard it is to ignore a steaming hot turd? I just proved it by posting here. LOL.

Dude, don't you have better things to do in your life than to harrass and pile abuse on a grieving mother?? Definitely, not cool! These are real people on this board and they have real problems. Kaylen was just trying to find somebody to share her pain with. She does have friends here. And I'm so glad your posts got deleted!

I'm certain that in hindsight she realized this.
Was all the extra mockery and rudeness toward her necessary?
I believe not.

The mod in question could partially right the wrong by restoring the thread with all posts intact, reopen the thread, retract his venomous statement and apologize to his constituency for his failure to moderate appropriately.

If the OP wants the thread closed it should be requested and given consideration by the mods of that forum.

Feigning intellectual relevance while callously inflicting emotional injury on a suffering young woman is cowardly and disingenuine. You're not fooling anyone.

This is a total waste of time. I want my 10 mins back. I'm outta here.

Show me where I harrassed, piled on, abused or made a mockery of anything. I believe that my statement was that the OP needed real help. Looking for sympathy on this board is not going to provide that kind of help.

What do you think will happen as a result of reopening this thread?
If you facilitate the continuation of others acting in this manner, doesn't that make you just as guilty?

Here is a copy and paste of my comment since the thread was closed.

On a hooker board?
You might get some kind words here but you need real help.

There is nothing callous or disingenuous about that. You can believe whatever you want to believe my intentions were. If you thinck I was trying to be an asshole so be it. I won't convince you otherwise but in my experience people expect from others what they tend to be themselves.

However...The point of this thread is not to defend myself against what some of you have misinterpreted.

More importantly where is your disdain for the actions of the moderator that deleted posts and threads and broke several rules that he himself is entrusted with enforcing. You may argue that I have no excuse to come into this forum and question that. You would be wrong. Allowing one moderator to abuse his power in any forum is allowing any moderator to do the same anywhere on the board.

Mods are not supposed to close threads at their own discretion. Doing so discourages the free flow of thoughts. That is not moderating it is dictating what will be discussed. What I would hope would happen is that the OP would immediately request it be closed and consideration be given to that request as appropriate. What it will do is force the mod to admit his mistake and follow the rules as we all are expected to do. I have nothing else to add to that thread. Reopening it is a matter of principle.
