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. :)

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.
No doubt, they objected to crocodile hunters using bump stocks to turn guns into vicious assault weapons.
You merchant of death you! You crocodile hater!

Agreed, FR needs an overhaul of the post deletion process. Usually it just disappears with no way to even find the reason (unless you actually kept the URL somehow).
Why so many FReepers opt to insult the poster for asking a reasonable question, I really don’t understand.

So I’m sitting here, bored, getting tired of all the anti-trump updates, and then...
this thread! I love these. It’s like watching a cat play with a ball of yarn.

Hardly ‘news’.
Bet it would be a good ‘chat’ thread.

It’s been restored and moved to chat since I asked the question - well, possibly moved before I asked, because I didn’t think to look in chat, so I don’t know the precise timeline.

We are conservatives here and actually adhere to a standard. Which is why I asked. In order to understand the standard.
I've been here 14 years and posted nearly 5000 threads. This is the first time there's ever apparently been a problem.
I don't think it's unreasonable to ask the question.
