How do I find out why a post was pulled? Who do I contact?

Posted on 10/19/2017 6:14:12 PM PDT by naturalman1975

I have just had a thread pulled and I am rather baffled as to why. And I'm not sure how to even contact somebody to ask why which is why I am posting here.

The reason the thread was pulled according to the post is: "Why is this in the news forum?"

The answer to that question is because it was a post taken directly from an online newspaper - the Daily Mail

I've been posting here for fourteen years and this is the first time I've ever seen this happen. If the rules have changed, I'm happy to follow them - but I'm hoping I haven't been breaking them for fourteen years without anybody telling me. :)

You could ask our beloved AG, but he’s an impotent maroon.

I don’t have a problem with it. I just honestly can’t see what the problem was so I’d like to ask somebody to explain it to me so I don’t do it again.

I’ve posted nearly 5000 threads over the years without this ever seeming to be a problem before.

I don’t see why it was pulled either.

It was interesting and not in any way rude.

It was a news article about some pig shooters shooting a crocodile that got too close to them taking from what I consider a fairly major newspaper. And the reason it was pulled is stated as “Why is this in the news forum?”

Could be. Have to check the Constitution.

Every time I read it (which is often), I'm amazed to find new things, from abortion to gun stocks.

Hardly of major world importance, but no different than probably hundreds of posts I’ve made in the past of news stories that I thought would be of general interest here.
