Thread Name: BS: Deleted posts & closed threads
Subject: RE: BS: Deleted posts & closed threads
By default the majority of Mudcatters would seem to be quite happy with the way the site operates, as is the site owner.

The current Chief of the Mudcat Editing Team is not happy - is he? He now does as he wishes to the all posts and threads on our forum but he is still not happy. And no matter what further restrictions he will attempt to impose - I suspect he will never be happy.

No - he is annoyed.

Over the years He publicly tells us that he is annoyed by birthday threads, by copycat threads, by posters that refresh old threads, by posters who start new threads, by PELs threads, by claims for 100th posts etc etc..... The list is endless.

Should any poster be expected to care if he is annoyed? ....If he is so annoyed - why does he not finally go away and leave the rest of us in peace?

Or leave it to a 'moderator' whose wish is to enable the wishes of posters and not to express his annoyance at them when their wishes may not match?

Some people seem to think that even the expression of annoyance is an unacceptable form of repression.
-Joe Offer, annoyed-


Does the Chief of the Mudcat Editing Team really think that there IS an 'acceptable' form of repression? If so, perhaps he can tell us what this is?
