Re: NOT SURE where to place this
Hi Bolder-dash,
Your post was not erased, it was hidden. Click on Edit or Peek and you'll see that all the text is still there.
If you'd like to participate in a constructive discussion about moderation and enforcement then this is a good thread for that. If you just want to sound off then your posts will be hidden. I understand you're feeling frustrated, but your energy would be better directed toward keeping your focus on the topics of discussion threads.

Re: NOT SURE where to place this
But Percy, my post was EXACTLY about moderation, and banning-which is the exact topic of this thread.. It could not possibly be more clear. And yet, for some reason you still chose to hide it.

You're free to constructively discuss, but if you simply sound off with a litany of complaints then your posts will be hidden. This thread is for discussing possibilities concerning moderation and enforcement, not for complaining about how biased the moderators are and what a poor job they are doing.
I understand you're frustrated, but I think you would be best served by keeping your focus on providing constructive replies in the discussion threads.
If you're having problems in a discussion thread then the proper thread is Report discussion problems here: No.2.

I just wish they would apply the rules to everyone evenly.
If you're having problems in a discussion, in this case where you believe moderators are not enforcing the Forum Guidelines fairly, then the place to raise such issues is in the Report discussion problems here: No.2 thread.
The place to raise your other issues is your Creation as Science thread.

Hi Archy,
Is it a meta-joke that in this post you chose to not identify the author of the quote in a post which wasn't a direct reply?
TTFN,
WK
