What Happened When The Mods Pulled My Post?
About a quart of Gin ^ | April 9 2013 | A Demented Mind

I just spent alot of time posting!

I see that, looks like you hit a small bump.

Pictured: Small Bump

What happened?
Well, someone set up us the bomb?
I'm serious!
Oh, well.. looks like your post got pulled.

Augh! I spent alot of effort on that! How did it happen?!
Couldn't be because you were doing it wrong?

What the, how'd you get that video of m-- uh.. I don't even wear that!
Right Skippy. *cough* Well, since you asked, here's how posts get removed.
First, if it is against TOS it gets seen.

Then it gets marked.


Okay, I have that much.
Then the mods gather:

Pictured, mods gathering.

I don't think that's how it looks, I..
Look, do you want an answer or not?
...Yes?
Right, carrying on.
Then they back their vehicle up to your post.


Whoah! What the heck is that thing?!
It's a machine, that eats other machines.
With this:

I don't see what this has to do with my post vanishing, can you tell me wha-
Watch it question boy! I have a flamethrower!

You want to vanish like your dog did?

What the?! No, not Roozer too!
To be fair, your dog WAS drunk.
What?! Who would even... please don't point that flamethrower at me.
Right, and after they saw your post off the entire forum, they set it on fire.

Wait.. that man. His face, and fire! Oh GOD WHY?!
Oh, HIS post was all about his face, so the mods set it on fire.
After that, they used the ashes to open a gate between our world and theirs, like this:

BLECH! That's horrible!
And those tentacles! GAAAH!

If you think that's bad, you should see what happens when the mods get their hands on a bad thread.

Pictured: Mod hands

Oh look, here comes a mod now.
Looks like they want to ask you about that thread you just posted.

Gaaah! Tell them I'm indisposed!

Pictured: Moderator, dunno which one.

Tell them yourself, they're right behind you.


Wait, don't run away!
We haven't gotten to what happens when they edit your thread title!

This concludes our sordid fictional tale.
If you liked that, we have plenty more in the book "Oh the horrible things you'll summon!" rumored to be written by IamnotaMod

NOOOOOOO!!!! I thought it was closer to HOME! As in Free Republic! LOL!!

I haven’t been to that site, yet, but I think fear is the restraining factor: I mean, what WILL I find, already knowing my lines go into the Royalty from the Mayflower, and the Queen Anne...?

‘The National Union of Auditory Canals’ threatened a walk out.

It is admittedly difficult to handle the assault on the Audio Sensors (especially if you actually happen to be a musician...)

Since metalstep isn't quite your cup of um, tea, (coffee is outlawed on that side of the pond isn't it?) maybe your Union will return to work if you establish an Association with something a bit less fractious (but quite a bit older)?

Ok, I gotta get away from this 60's music thing or pretty soon I'll devolve into a Nowhere Man

I listen to foreign music sometimes. But I enjoy some more than others.

Maybe I’ll go listen to it again!

Well in that case here's a Playlist...

Parts of it sound almost but not quite entirely unlike ..music.

A contrived term that is intended to sound technical when attempting to explain why something doesn’t work.

It takes work to disgronify everything. I have adopted the phrase 'It's merely a nonsalubrious manifestation.' That seems to satisfy them...

Particularly useful while explaining why a ball of fire just belched from the inverter rack when the motor went into regen mode... It was impressive. Cleared the city inspectors head by at least , oh, eight inches or so.. The Super says to the inspector "How about lunch?" - it was 10:30 AM - to which the inspector says 'How BIG a lunch..."

NC: I love what you do with your posts, but my cataracts are really having a hard time with that small print.

Not saying you have to stop with the “asides.”

I will see the opthalmologist in July and schedule surgery so we can both be comfy!

Besdies: Your “asides” are FUNNY, MAN!

Well, I could create a similar effect by making the main point like this...

And the marginal comments like this...

But it is more fun to do it this way. And since Moose commented on his Auditory Union going on strike from listening to Celldweller, just thought I'd mention that my White Furbeast with no tail, to tell feels the same way. I was listening through the playlist I posted a couple back and the White Furbeast with no tail, to tell was sitting on my keyboard, er, desk 'helping' me. She looked at me with the cat equivalent of 'Are you freekin nutz' and ran to the otherside of the room while trying to stuff her no tail into her ears... She is still sitting over there glaring at me. It can be comical to watch her switch her no tail. This little nub sort of looks like its going around in circles on her rump...

No problem. Just hold down the cloverleaf key and mash the plus sign a few times.

You must be talkin about one of them Steve Jobs specials, cause there ain't no clovers on a Windoze machine keyburd. Homeever, if you smash that ctrl key and the + key simontuniously, it attempts to do something that looks like a passable emulation of magnification... ;-)

Now what keys do I press on the Osborne?

Got the CTRL key on the left and the R-click on the mouse and life is good. But I hate relying on SYNTHETIC methods of navigating the Interwebs...

GIVE ME BACK MY EYES!!!

How fitting I should pop in at this beyond-late hour to wish you a “Happy Birthday” and find you reminiscing of Sionnsar, for just these past 48 hours I have had Sionnsar-like happenings involving my main computer here at the house.

Motherboard quit working owing to multiple failing electrolytic capacitors, so I had the hard drive transplanted into a slightly newer — and much higher performance — computer having architecture similar enough that it booted right up on the first attempt, and required only a couple of drivers, and minor O/S tweaks to run without a hitch.

Two days outta commission; $165 for the used-but-improved hardware, and I’m BAA-aack, and “HAPPY BIRTHDAY!” to ya!
