Just went to report a post. By the time I clicked the icon it had already been nuked.

If you don't know what I'm talking about, please read and take action.

    Well said sir.

    With the cooperation and the active participation of ALL regular, rule-abiding members, yes, this self-moderation can really work.

      And who's doing what to whom

      Yes, it does work. I just promoted a blatantly self promotional post and
      it's gone.

      If we all just do our jobs, we'll keep this place clean.

      AHEM.

      Speaking of which, here's someone who's posting like a bot (by copying a line that other people have already posted):

      And it's not just this post -- I checked, and he/she/it has done it in a few threads already.

      Report.

    Nice John,

    The proper use of the report button will take care of a lot.

    Trinivet,

    I've reported some of my own threads I've regretted starting and got them removed myself.

        Well, I'm glad that thread is closed but I have to say I DID learn a lot about being a better member here and get a better idea of when to use the report button, etc.

        :confused: What on earth are you talking about??? I have no clue. I was implying nothing and the post I made was needed because I needed to make it. I wasn't trying to explain anything. And if you feel cynical I can't help that. I never even considered you were being cynical. I was just sharing how one can get their own thread removed by "reporting" it. LOL I bounced my thought off of yours because you jogged my memory of when I did so, by your comment. Nothing in my very short post was even pertaining to your thought until I put "your name" comma. The first half i was agreeing with John. (John I was implying nothing, just agreeing ) This is funny.

        I really did get to spend more time reading quality threads, which I wasn't doing before. I was wasting time on idle banter.

        The forum really is cleaner and a much better place.

    Hey George, why was my trinivet account banned. I'd at least like an explanation. I asked you to remove my poor threads and you did. Alot of my posts offer lots of helpful information.

    So I believe I'm adding to the forum. I haven't spammed or created any objectionable threads since. I don't think my posts were inappropriate.

    I need to know why and how to get unbanned. I want that account back. Check thru some of my posts and see how helpful I've been to some people newer than I am and never asked for anything in return but maybe earn my respect here.

    There is some high up member who posted stuff about a hamster and I wonder if the same action was taken with him.

    Even Steven admits he was guilty at some point in this thread, but I see he's still online. It seems a bit biased to me.

    Sorry George, just a little perturbed about how my trinivet account got banned and I have no idea why.

    btw the post about cynical, I never meant any harm. Sorry I came across like that. My judgement may be slipping, I haven't slept in 2 days.

    It's getting rediculous though how just like that I was banned when other more respected (more posted) individuals can get away with posting some crap and just getting a slap on the wrist.

      So THAT'S what happened...I've been waiting till my post count got to 15 so I could PM and saw it dropped down to 6 all of a sudden and I'm like...wait a second...I've posted more than that! So I checked my subscriptions and your whole thread with my in-depth response was gone.

      That's a real shame...there was a lot of useful information in that thread. While I don't want to ruffle any feathers being the new guy here and all...I do admit that I too am curious as to what happened. I hope it wasn't that thread because it had some great info in it.
