Why Was That Deleted?
July 6, 2002 | happytobealive

Re: Men vs. Women post of a few minutes ago.

This was generating a huge response, which seems to indicate that it was an important topic.

Why isn't the reasoning for deletions made clear so that we know the ground rules better and can try and persuade the moderators when they seem to error?

Do you think the folks in charge are going to explain their delete policy and how it relates to the thread in question?

No

"But guess what: I moved on. I don't blame the shortcomings in my life on someone else. I work to fix them MYSELF. How novel. Some of these whiny guys could try it."

Hear hear! Most adults have had at least ONE relationship which went nuclear. Heck, after 11 years of marriage and a five year custody battle, I'm surprised to have gotten through it with my SANITY (AND my kids, finally)....if not my pocketbook.

That's no reason for me to blame ALL men, SUMMARILY for what ONE MAN did. That kind of thinking is insane, for men as well as women, and will only make anyone who believes it bitter and lonely.....in the end, thinking that way hurts no one but THE THINKER.

Well part of the problem is that in a forum like this where people can post somewhat anonymously, people feel free to say things that they would never say in polite company. I am guilty of that sometimes myself. Once in a while, I'll come across an old post of mine and I'll say to myself "I posted that!" I think sometimes that the best improvement that could be made to Free Republic would be the ability to go back and remove your own posts. Because things are often said in the heat of the moment and with a typing speed of 65wpm or higher, sometimes my keyboard runs ahead of my brain!

BTW, I type like a secretary because I took two years of typing in high school in an unsuccessful attempt to pick up girls. I was one of only two or three boys in the class and man, did I ever take flack from my classmates for being in typing class. I guess all the girls in class must have thought we were gay or something too. But I do like to type and got straight "A"s both years, which helped to push my GPA up.

Guess who got the farm, the furniture, the electronics, the expensive crystal, the stocks?

sorry that happened to you; that was not fair or right.
most women and men who do get clobbered in domestic issues move on; you have been able to do so through perseverance and work.
some, both men and women, get stuck with burdens which are unfair and unjust. This is what we try to address. if we're not making sense, and in a good way, we're not doing a very good job....

There are professionals for that.

But there is no love in that, and that is what I want.

Oh wow...jujyfruits!

Help yourself. Jujyfruits (and the popcorn) are about the only reasons I go to the movie theater any more.

That's the second time you've been dead-on right in this thread.

I rest my case...

Exactly. To say that the US domestic court system is hopelessly flawed and screws men regularly is NOT whining. It is merely stating easily verifiable fact.

No.

What do you think there reasoning is?

Once they've had a chance to think about it, why wouldn't they want to discuss it in a group forum?

LOL...probably not. But thanks for posting it. I'm getting a HUGE kick out of it!

Pretty much.. Of course, good luck explaining that to people who post one whine thread after another demanding that everyone just shut up and go away.

(logic isn't their strong point, obviously.. )

Yes I am the one who rules_the_world.

Well then...I have a few complaints.

First off...Tutti Fruitti ice cream is impossible to find anymore.

And what the hell happened to those really cool tablets you'd drop into a glass of water and they'd fizz and flavor it?

Do you think you could explain why you come to this forum and try to stir up trouble? What's it like, being a troll?

I'll take the popcorn on the left.

And no, we didn't find out why the thread was deleted. And I don't care, as long as there's lots of butter on the popcorn.

I have no idea but if you ever get your hands on any Horlick's malted milk tablets, I will sell you both of my children at cost.
