Mods Deleting Threads

[Kuroda Taishi]

Should Mods be deleting threads just becuase 1 person spoiled it for everyone else by flaming or spamming?

And should they delete a thread just because they think it is sexist even though it is not?

Should they delete a repost of a good topic that generated a lot of valuable discussion?

[mangagirl]

no..im loosing a lot of posts

[Anonymous]

"It depends. They should delete it if it's guaranteed to get more flaming, but not if some random person started the flame."

[Nine]

Well it should depend on the thread.

[Sage Mode]

Yeah I think so. ;)

Women should be treated like objects? Explain how that's valuable.

The wemon is our thread,so if she talks back to us,We delete her.;)

[Anonymous]

"To see how many people agree."

[Sage Mode]

Uh huh. And there was other inappropriate crap in there besides the flaming.

[EdFry]

Yeah I think so. ;)

I'll agree with this, if something was intentionally sexist then that's wrong but if it was taken out of context then the poster should have been more clear or at least tried to clarify in a later post.

Kuraoda aren't you a super mod? The administrators trust you. That you wont break the rules. And i guess the debate rules say to not make sexist debates.

The point of the topic was for people to come up with rational arguements on why people should be treated equally.

[<Aurega?>]

Well, the entire debate was fun and most of the content was meant as a joke, until young girls started talking about puberty and their periods.

Then we got back on topic and it stayed ok for a while, with both sides throwing in good arguments.

I don't know what happened later, but I saw several infractions over that debate which means it should at least be locked. Maybe it even warranted a deletion, I don't know.

Mm hm. Oldest trick in the book. The sociological experiment excuse.

[yondaime]

I think the Mods should delete the Thread if it gets out of control.

And for those who can, check out page 30. Nuff said.

I'm sorry you were not able to see the point of the topic. Most of the intellegent people that posted were able to figure it out.

I hopped on over and looked at it, and I'm pretty sure that page warranted it.

[Sage Mode]

The point of the topic was for you to rile people. Anyway, this debate is whack. And I'm whacktose intolerant.

[Broko]

Kuroda i don't think you should say anything bad about the administrators. They can make you the most miserable person on the forums.

lolz

Easy now, i'm sure whomever locked/deleted it did it out of necessity. If I where to start flaming, spaming or just generally be rude they need to step in and handle it before the "crazies" get the idea that it is tolerable.

Just because you can't think of a good counter doesn't mean you can make assumptions about my intentions and then run away from the discussion.

What did I say that was bad?

What did I say that was bad?Or doing something that makes the administrators want to do something evil to you

[Kuroda Taishi]

What did i do?

[yondaime]

What did i do?

I think he means arguing with the administrators.

[Anonymous]

What did i do?

"You basically called Sage Mode stupid."

[Broko]

What Yondaime said.

[Kuroda Taishi]

I wasn't argueing, I was debating.

"You basically called Sage Mode stupid."

Yes, but I never actually said that, xD. So it is perfectly within the rules of the site.

"That's clever, but he could still make your forum life hell."

He could, but it would only prove my point further.

Gah, I knew gama was over the line there, but he refused to believe it...

[Sage Mode]

"You basically called Sage Mode stupid."

Don't worry, it doesn't hurt my feelings.

[Anonymous]

"Good to know that you're forgiving... I wonder how many people suck up to you guys..."

[EdFry]

Quite the crowd over here, well since your all here; Mind giving me the highlights of whatever went down? Please, can't be rude.

[Konoha'sGreenThunder]

The thread went into some inappropriate discussion. Any description of the matter shouldn't go any further than that.

[EdFry]

The thread went into some inappropriate discussion. Any description of the matter shouldn't go any further than that.

So for some further clarification, was it the people debating that took it too far or some random spectators from the side lines?

I get the idea that it was against forum rules(whatever was posted that is).

[<Aurega?>]

*looks around*

Whispers: "he's used to it".

I don't know if they were random people who got in, I didn't read the whole thing. I know some people who were debating were talking about it too, though.

LOL....funny!
I participated in that thread but didn't get to see the period crap. I am kinda glad I didn't. I have learned that when I start getting ticked off in a debate. Just leave it! Not worth it.

They made a competition of "Who had it first" Others included "Who's older?" and they also went into comparing who had it first in relation to time and age.

Eww! Now wasn't that nice! It is not a wonderful topic and honestly I could have gone my whole life without having IT. It is truly a curse. Glad I missed it.

Although it was definitely off-topic, to be fair to the women who posted about that, the entire subject of periods was, if I recall correctly, first raised by the guys who started making jokes about cramps, how it couldn't hurt that much, and how women become emotionally psycho during their cycle. I cannot remember the exact wording, so I am paraphrasing here. My point is: Don't bring up a subject if you don't want it discussed lol

Mods usually only delete threads if they have too, a lot of times I just see them get edited because of something against the rules and it's not like losing posts are the end of the world you can always get them back. I had over a thousand like in June and now it's only in the 800's and I haven't complained once. So yes I think mods should delete threads when they need too :D

Ya I agree to what you just have said.

It was the topic itself that was the problem, not necessarily the people in it, though that was a contributing factor.

No, the topic was about if or why women should be treated equally.

[Kuroda Taishi]

No when I said people, i meant people, not just women.

Ok, I had to sig that.

No when I said people, i meant people, not just women.

What?

No, I was refering to the topic called; "Should women be treated as objects". I don't know what you were refering to, or if we weren't on the same page, but you did start a thread posing that question, yes?

[darkamaru]

i think they shouldn't unless it is WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY stupid and useless(IE:adopt an internal organ...who would wanna.Oo)
or if it was totally bad and flame starting(IE:a hypothetical "lets start a flame war.lolololol" thread)

[itachiuchiha85]

as much as i am against it, (mods going god mode) it is their duty and their job, so they have the right. The thing is they should not be biased on topics, ive seen a lot of topics and A LOT of chatting that is worthy of even banning and no one gets blamed, but when someone brings out the "oh i am (insert age here) i am getting out" post, the mods take consideration into it. Be fair to all post and threads and chatboxes (that goes to the mods and admins) Ive seen a lot of "looking the other way" parts and a lot of "oh what you said "isht"? you are banned" parts too. come on guys be fair.

[Brain Picker]

Moderators have every right to delete troll threads. Regardless what the average Youtube commenter has to say, you do not have a right to free speech in an online community which the admins put their time and effort into creating for themselves just so you can be an arsehole and stir up trouble.
