This morning a post was pulled regarding the discovery of Mastadon bones in maybe Indiana. The reason cited for pulling it was "chat".
I don't get it. The article was NOT a vanity; it was a published news article. Things like that are interesting and should be allowed.
For God sake, they let a letter jumble puzzle be posted every morning.
Does FR have a defined criteria as what is allowed and what is not.
This kind of thing has happened more than once.
Yes, it is Robinson's site and he can do what he wants, but to me this is really annoying.
Thoughts
This thread should be pulled as it is a chat thread and you posted it in news.
Trust me, you’re not alone.
If they don’t tell us why then we don’t learn anything.
I think there is a chat section. Perhaps the main News/Activism page is for politics, national and world news, etc.
I hardly ever post a thread anymore so I’m a bit rusty. Someone else may be able to better answer your question.
Wouldn’t a rant to release stress get your blood pressure DOWN to normal?
I know, this has nothing to do with the comment :)
Have you considered FReepmailing the mods and asking them why?
Sorry, I couldn't resist.
Sometimes I need a break from politics, and I find science-y articles interesting.
I don't know the answer to your question.
Mods killed Lucianne.com
You clapped a lot of erasers and passed out a lot of apples in elementary school, didn’t you?
“Wouldnt a rant to release stress get your blood pressure DOWN to normal?”
One would think so, however when I rant (mentally), I just end up spinning myself up more and more. Very unhealthy, at least for me.
I always post in chat. It still goes to the top of the threads.
Yeah that happens to me.
Maybe in the long run (hours) it gets one’s pressure down, but in the short term it’s brutal :)
“Mods killed Lucianne.com”
What, do they have hit teams like that CIA?
In before the resident thread crank/insult er in chief...
The same reason this one's going to get pulled. Why did you post this one under news/activism too???
Newbie question: Why would they remove it instead of just move it to chat? Are mods unable to change the section it’s in?
Get over yourself. Just because you consider it important doesn't make it so. Just like this thread.
Who are the mods, anyway?
Of course you know why it was pulled.
