A question for the sysops please

greenspun.com : LUSENET : TimeBomb 2000 (Y2000) : One Thread

Dear sysops members, I have a question I hope you may/will answear for me.

I posted a humorus reply to Paul Wilson's thread concerning Jom Lord's versity (this being the humouous happen stance that Bad Company was the first to post an answear to his thread).

I have since checked the answears section and find that my observation was not there. I am, of course curious (and a litle mystified) as to why it either didn't post. Or that it was deleted.

Since there was no bad words, no attempt at being obnoxious, just a short, I thought rather humorous observation that Mr. Wilson was seen with Bad company...I can not understand either the why, or the nessity for the answear to be removed.

If I have created an infraction, then it is nessisary for me to now what it is in order not to incur some one's deleting ire again. Can you please infore me as to why?

Thank you very much

Shakey,

Donno.

Just repost. There are several Sysops here. Occassionally, a post gets snipped accidentially, especially when banned posters are active, as they are/were this morning.

Doing our best, given the volume, but sometimes mistakes are made.

Sorry.

Diane, 'twernt me, but I'll support the all Sysops d-decisions

Also, if you referred to a snipped post, you might have been caught in the crossfire of trying to make the responses continuous enough to read.

I know we all appreciate your efforts to keep this place clean. A few posts snipped here or there is not a high price to pay for some decency and order around here.

Shakey,

Humor impared moderator? It can happen, I know I have lost my sense of humor lately over this crap happening in Seattle, I am going to have to take an hour detour around downtown to get my Dad over to his dr.'s appointment at the V.A. Hospital this morning.

I'm also in the process of writing to the counsel members who though it would be cute to invite every protester in the world a free reign this week.

Why our laid back chief of Police cannot arrest the 30 or less who started and continue their distruction is beyound me. Maybe it is time for us Seattle citizens to go take back our downtown. GGrrrr...

What were you talking about again?
