You shake my hand, say “pleased to meet you.” Look me in the eye, I don’t believe you. TUI, as long as I’m still alive. I live despite you. Realize I’m not one of your kind, I’m nothing like you.

We all had ostriches. My dad had an ostrich farm! I remember one day someone came in and said the high altitude bombing of Kosovo had been a limited success, so we all went out and celebrated… by killing an ostrich and boiling it in kiwi fruit.

Crossfire I didnt read the thread that was removed but your telling me it was ok to remove. Fine POST A GOD DAMNED REASON.


Yes, I know. That's why I said

Posted by Crossfire
As for the thread being deleted... perhaps it could have been handled differently.


And, if you hadn't noticed... Ed did come back with an explanation as to why he deleted it. And to be perfectly honest, a discussion about the deletion of that thread happened in the Mod's forum before any of this shit happened.

Your concerns have been addressed, answered, and hopefully put to bed.

and a two yearold removal of someones post, because he or she it had there panties in a wad. I wont even single ED out because honestly its happened alot recently.


Wait. I just re-read that. What was the post that was removed that was two years old? Because, that's really bizarre.

Oh yeah, and sorry for upsetting everyone. I think my cigarette withdrawal is making me crazy.

No - I think he means that it was deleted because the Mod was acting like a two year old.

Now, complaining about something that has been explained, dealt with, apologized for and put to bed is a much more mature approach.

I'm getting tired of people thinking that mods should be infallible. We're all human, we make mistakes and try to make up for those mistakes.

Honestly... People here have it pretty good.

I post on other forums about other topics (there's a thought eh ? taking my non-ue interests to forums about thos topics) and the moderation at those boards is way wayyyy more strict than anything anyone bitches about here. A thread I had posted a reply in disappeared, deleted. The thread was not contreversial or against any rules on the board. I PM'ed the moderators of the site and asked politley what the reason for deleting the thread was as I didn't see any violation of any rule and it was an extremely civil thread. No reply from any mod about it. No explanation about it. No discussion. Nothing.

Here, you get far more say than you do at any forum i've ever seen, yet it's never enough. Be thankful for how you have it here. Bitch too much needlessly and it'll just end up like other forums...

Perhaps the course of action is to whittle UER down to just UER related discussions - remove OTHER all together.

It would probably reduce traffic and we'd probably lose users - but we'd waste a lot less resources overall with these poli/enviro/religious feuds.

Woah... Jester took the words outta my mouth. I want my words back, damnit.

Seriously, though, Jester is right. We get away with a lot more shit here than you could expect on any other forum... with the exception of absentee-staff forums out there, which we got a taste of with Mayhem...

Jedstah - Wish I had saved you trying to egg me on in the chat forum. No one gave a shit because you were attacking Bush, everyone ignored you. If I had done that well I would have gotten bitched at. Maybe Agent_Skelly might like to refresh your memory.

So go blow it out of your hypocritical ass. Just because you dont agree with what I am saying doesnt make it a unfounded post. I have to deal with your bullshit then you can quit wineing and ignore this post.

Not to mention right now your being a flaming bitch and no one has told you to shut the hell up. apparently proving the point a bit.


Ednothing - Honestly I dont know why you or crossfire deleted that guys post. I am sure you had good reasons. However no evidence was given besides "it was political" which is BS. Im not saying cut your balls off and not do your job or do something.


I have seen several people in the last couple months get mad at posts disappearing and unfair moderation. It was usually one guy acting up doing something stupid saying something wrong. It seems like the new guy doesnt get a fair break, while the locals can do anything.

Great so does that mean theres no room for improvement?

Thats like saying hey Living in Iraq is better then Somalia, personally I dont want to live in either place right now.

No UER isnt terrible but its unfair sometimes and that pisses me off. Life isnt fair but in a society like this it could be.

actually i was singing, i was doing it all night long. i always do it, it just happened that at the time you joined, i was singing songs from a political punk band.

Sorry, but that was me spewing my political agenda. Jedstah was singing a [rather good] song.

My reasoning was:

Because it was the usual political thread where both sides post links, quote statistics and blows hot air out of their ass and no one gets their mind changed and the same crap is in about 300 other threads on here.


Not a very good reason, eh?

But I realized that everyone wanted to continue the debate or whatever and everyone was all pissed off and I restored the thread which no one even realized for like 3 hours. And now there's six pages of hysteria all because of me.

Do other forums devoted to hobbies have this much bullshit going on? Are coin collectors this crazy?

Proving WHAT point, Mark? I don't see anywhere in this thread where Jed has flamed anyone or anything.

And by the way, you yourself are treading a fine line. It has been asked of UER's users that they treat other forum users with respect. When the moderators catch somebody doing the contrary, something needs to be said to them. So, I'm saying this to you, now. You can post your concerns in a civil manner and nobody will fault you for it. However - when you start accusing other users of being a "flaming bitch" for no reason (or at least, no reason I can discern), you're risking a slap on the wrist.

You just contradicted yourself. You don't know why Ed deleted the thread, but then you turn around and say an explanation was given. It doesn't matter whether you thought the reason was BS... that was the reason.

Crossfire - Don't even get me started about the flaming you started in the thread on the other forum. Hey pot this is the kettle calling you black as well.

I think personally if you go and call me on a fine line you better put a few more names on that list. Thats the point though isnt it. Selective Moderation isnt good.

Lastly let me define for you. YES I know why he fucking said he deleted the post. However I dont know what made him do that.

Not to mention I have heard recently someone got a tempban because of political ideologies. I am going to look at it, because if there was then this is getting out of hand.

Jester - I am on 3 other forums that do alot better, and 2 that do lot worse.

Ednothing - That was probably the best thing that could have been done. It's good to see that change. I honestly wasnt mad at you
