All-Star Censorship

[King]

Would it be better or worse if the board didn't exist? Personally, I'm SO for worse.

You are following. For the board TO exist it must have moderation. There will always be disagreements on what is moderated, but that is the name of the game. If the 'censorship' becomes too much than someone would just go create a rival board (feel free, there are lots of good hosting services out there). But what makes this one successful is the combination of a lot of different pieces. Take away some of the pieces and it will cease to be successful.

It is actually the goal of the admins and moderators to delete only the posts that matter most to you. We really try extra hard to make sure when we do delete it is a personal blow to whoever's post was deleted.

The staff has reviewed it and that post really didn't mean that much to you... so we left it.

I nominate this for post of the year.

Would the board disappearing forever prove a point or end the problem? No more board no more chances to delete posts.

logical fallacy

I think a larger range of smilies would help people discern the tone of a post

Is it bad I feel slightly offended that this thread is losing steam? I want to look in here and see it at the top of the forum every time.

I just don't understand why I haven't been given admin/moderator rights yet. There's plenty of people I want to censor...

I posted some in this thread a while back What do you want to see on this board? Whats good? What needs to change? | Fierce Board - We Talk Cheerleading

 

[DJ]

What if the whole board shut down?

I'm just wondering if anyone else found it ironic or uncanny timing that the Boards crashed shortly after kingston made that post?
I know I got several texts about the forum message "no spoons for you".

Funny how the two correlated.

I definitely would nominate NJ Coach as a Special Project Manager specifically for the task of Censoring myself.
