You can then always make a special request to our 'moderators' to open the thread again.

Which does rather make our 'moderators' imposing closure on them in the first place - more than a bit pointless.

Unless the whole point is to make our 'moderators' feel very important?

Roger (I have already wished you a Merry Christmas). The reference to threads being closed in this case is a reference to crudloads of fucking spam of a particularly cheap variety hitting the Mudcat.

I agreed with you about some threads being allowed to remain open or some posts being allowed to stand because some clones had a beef with some posters--may they eat shit and choke on it. However, in this case, you got it wrong.

Father Offer deleted that post? Right

Wrong.

And I am surprised that other posters who appear to be quick to correct such things have not posted to already do so.

In fact the current Chief of the Mudcat Editing Team took far more time and trouble to first select all the posts that he judged to be on topic and placed or left) them into a thread titled 'The earth closet - the future'. This excluding posts of mine that were both on topic and also answering other points raised.

The posts that he judged to be not addressing the subject of earth closets - he placed in new thread that he created and titled The earth closet - the future (closed).

And after selflessly making all these unasked for efforts on our behalf - the current Chief of the Mudcat editing team then closed it. The thread only - hopefully not the future.

Which is not technically deleting the thread - as if you should make a note of that thread's URL - it is possible to later read but not to refresh or contribute - when the thread falls off the bottom of the Mudcat world (otherwise referred to as the index).


You can then always make a special request to our 'moderators' to open the thread again.

NO, Roger. As Joe said on the Help thread, it is due to spam of the pornographic variety. Today it hit the Lyric Add threads. The stuff is shit with hot links and all. You want that kind of site linked to via Mudcat? Jesus, Joseph and Mary. I do NOT feel like arguing with you about this, Roger. I agree with some of what you say about selective editing, and if you want the names of the clones who do that, message me. But don't present a 'freedom of speech' issue like it is only about you.

NO, Roger. As Joe said on the Help thread, it is due to spam of the pornographic variety.

No.

Don't swallow this nonsense.

If the current Chief of the Mudcat Editing Team is seen, in pursuit of his own personal spats, to intentionally post spam posts of the pornographic variety (for example, what is now the first post to the first version of this thread) - this fight against spam is the sham that all the other assurances, excuses and justifications posted are.

They are all just given to enable our 'moderators' to do as they wish with the invited contributions of their fellow posters.

With the exception of course of certain posters seen to be favoured by them, who are now encouraged to post any scatological and pornograpic references and for these to be inflicted on our forum.

What is worse - examples of posts like these or automatically generated ones?

I don't really give a toss if unfair treatment like this is to now be the way so-called 'moderation' is on our forum and certain posters are seen to be encouraged to post what they wish.

Just as long as the pretence is not maintained that this treatment is open and fair and that its victims and those who try to post to demonstrate this and enable it to be freely discuss - are not publicy seen to be assured that it IS open and fair.

Those posters who wish to be seen to be supporting online bullying are welcome (by me at least) to do so.

But please don't maintain the pretence to yourself or anyone else that what is being supported is anything other than what it plainly is..........

Now are posters really supposed to take this 'battle' against the 'pornographic variety of spam posts, seriously?

It must be clear that any form of offensive post can now be seen to be publicly inflicted on our forum's posters and used as ammunition by our 'moderators' and their favoured few supporters - in their personal but publicly conducted witch-hunts, unless an until posters are seen to comply or are driven away.

I just happen to still believe that our forum is set up to encourage and enable all posters to feel safe to openly post their views.

If anyone else should still beleive this also - I would be grateful if they would speak up and say so - while they still have the chance.

naawww, Roger, I am overlooking nothing...your views ARE posted openly. I understand that you have certain restrictions... You are just restricted from starting multiple threads to do so, or injecting your views on this issue into threads of others.

I used to have a 'moderate' personal campaign against over-broad definitions of 'folk', too....but I have not spent years insisting that people use the language only in ways I approve of.....If I had, and if I set about that campaign with the single-minded fervor you employ, I would not be surprised to my posts on it restricted to one thread.

"You should perhaps be asking our 'moderators' that question."...nope- our moderators seem to have already determined that both you & catspaw may post their views. The logical conflict is in YOUR reasoning where you ask for freedom for everyone...then suggest that catspaw should refrain...or be prevented....from posting his. (It's not quite clear which)

For the 417th time...the operative rule is: Max has a group of moderators, with a couple of overseers, to help keep the joint running, and they have certain guidelines.....one of which is to control & restrict problem postings....spam is one, porn is one- but you are another. It makes no difference if you disagree with the rules or the minutiae of enforcement policies....just as it makes no difference whether *I* want a narrower definition of 'folk'. I state my opinion now then, and it's tolerated BECAUSE it's "now & then"..

If you could evidence where I have asked or suggested such a thing - you views may have a little credibility. But as I have not - your views are seen to be as innacurate as they are selective.

My request is for ALL posters to be seen to be treated openly and fairly by our 'moderators' - as you are of course fully aware.

As you are fond of accusing others of introducing 'the straw man' - I am sure that you would not wish to be seen to be doing this here.   

Any poster who is foolish enough to be seen to be inflicting such posts (as are currently seen to be encouraged by the current Chief of the Mudcat Editing Team) on our forum only succeeds in demonstrating their foolishness.

And any 'moderator' who is seen to be publicly encouraging such posting - (when other posters have been banned for such posting) is beyond foolishness.

So are any posters who support such hypocrisy and double standards (even if just by being silent and not challenging them).

For you wiil accept that other posters (and one in particular) - who insisted on posting similar posts as are seen to be encouraged by the current Chief of the Mudcat Editing Team from certain favoured posters - are now banned from posting at all?

And that this was done with much noise and public support?

So what message is now being given to our forum by the current Chief of the Mudcat Editing Team being seen to set the example of openly encouraging such posts - containing offensive name-calling, foul language, scatological references and abusive personal attacks?

That such posting is OK - when it is OK when it from 'one of the favoured few' or that all posters are being seen to be treated equally by our 'moderators'?

You are inordinately fond of that "seen to be" locution, but again, the operative concept IS what the moderators, guided by the "chief" moderator "see" to be the problem(s).

You clamor for 'fairness', but you can't write a rule that everyone would 'see' to be fair. The current rules and enforcement policies ARE considered fair by most of those who bother to comment. YOU have created a self-reinforcing hypothesis about being treated UNfairly....the more you complain, the more restrictions you engender and the more abuse you attract....so you complain louder. *click*...off we go again.

So if all posters doing this are seen to be treated openly and fairly there will be no problem?

But they are not are they?

A certain favoured poster has now been seen to be encouraged by the current Chief of the Mudcat Editing Team to post and inflict on our forum whatever abuse and scatological references they may wish.

All your huffing and puffing don't mean a thing because there is only what is. At some point Max will take the piss out of you instead of me doing it. That might be a sad day because under the neurotic asshole persona, you're an otherwise intelligent being.

Maybe it will come to you in the new year though I doubt it. You're not saving Mudcat. It isn't yours to save. Back off and let Max take care of things in the best time frame that he and Jeff can. Make it a resolution for the new year huh? You've made all the points that you have to make and you can see that no one but you is too interested. "Our" forum, as you like to say, would be far better off for it. If you can't do that, then I'll be around just for the hell of it to screw with you.

Perhaps you could explain why you consider it acceptable that special posting restrictions to be seen to be imposed on me - whilst you are openly encourged to continue to publicly inflict any abuse on our forum?

And why you judge it to be acceptable for one poster to be banned and the other poster (yourself) to be free from any censure and encouraged by the current Chief of the Mudcat Editing Team, for both inflicting the same sort of unacceptable abusive postings on our forum?

As you now admit you get pleasure out of intentionally annoying people, and if you intend to carry on and if you are still seen to be encouraged to inflict this on our forum publicly, and in your chosen scatological manner - please feel free instead to post whatever might please you in PMs to me.

I, and I suspect many other posters will be grateful for this and then be able to discuss what they chose to on our forum without your intentional and many 'fun' attempts to prevent this.

By these postings and the favoured treatment they have been seen to receive by the current Chief of the Mudcat Editing Team - you have mainly succeeded in perfectly demonstrating my point for me to our forum.

Someone who comes into my house and behaves like some of the posters here would be regarded as an intruder and not a guest.
Guests are welcome, providing they adhere to the basic norm of respecting the person/place that is providing that hospitality.


It now appears that many of our forum's 'guests' are seen to set a far better example of showing respect than some of our members, 'moderators' and their usual noisy few supporters.

As I see it, this forum is doubly blessed. Not only does it have it's very own court jester, in the form of Catspaw49, but it also has it's very own global village idiot in the form of The Shambles.

Just think, if the guy had put the same amount of care and attention into his schoolwork as he does into hunting out censorship here, he could have been a Nobel laureate by now.

As it is, it's a life wasted.

Sad really. When he's lying in that twilight home, smelling of old piss and cabbage, there'll be no queue of little acolytes waiting to see the great crusader for truth. There's just be a lonely old, sad old, mad old obsessive, convinced that some evil bastard's tying knots in his catheter.

There ya go again Roger taking a post totally out of context. My post which you quote above was against cowardly and abusive Guests. Or Guests who are in reality Mudcatters who have a personal axe to grind, and do so by appearing to support your prejudices.
Don't be misleasd by apparent 'support' from these anonymous Guests in this thread Roger, it is Mudcat they are targeting, and not you they are supporting.

I think the clones do a pretty good job of deleting the personal attacks and name calling, but they can't be everywhere.
One of the worst offenders has finally been banned and I don't miss him a bit.


Any chance of a reality check and any joined-up thinking taking place before such posts as the above are posted? Are they posted in the hope that later reading of them will make these dreams become reality?

Led by the current Chief of the Mudcat Editing Team - our 'moderators' have for many years themselves been seen to set the example of indulging in posting personal attacks and name-calling.

How can such a public show of hypocrisy and double standards ever be expected to result in anything other than posters following this example?
