So I had commented on an article where the nyt I think, was picking apart trumps debt and insinuating that his acceptance of loans from box/GS was somehow a horrible thing for a presidential nominee to do.
I surfed for a bit and wanted to read what others had written. The topic is completely gone, my comment isn't listed in pings.(my comment was 'and if it was Hillary they'd say the 950 million annual debt from boc/GS was covered plus xx% by annual leases' and then 'remember when Hillary stole priceless antiques from the wh so she could eat like common folk' or something along those lines.)
So where did the topic go? Is this site becoming like GLP and censoring topics? There were 8 other comments on that topic I believe.
Not good if active topics are being trashed if someone doesn't like what's said.
There’s Malaria on MV?
Quit your whining about duplicate threads, if a thread is posted at 4:00 AM from the East coast and is way down thread at 9:00 AM when some west coast folks arrive, there’s no reason the same thread can’t be posted again.
waah
If you’re a Bad Man or Woman, you go to the Cornfield.
...and my all-time favorite mod reason for killing a thread: “No thanks”
Time for a Viking ZOT Kitty
Oh no! We have lost the benefit of your wise insights.
What will we ever do?
Well, I got this Magic 8-ball thingy. We could use that. It's pretty amazing - you can't hardly read it now, but if you look at it just right with a magnifying glass, it says, "Reply hazy. Try again". Which it is.
How does it know that?
Once a thread is deleted, it bits are sent to the bit bucket where they are kept for later recycling into memes.
Don’t worry...censorship is big on the FReep...
Ah yes the maturity factor rears it’s head, tell me how’s that Kool-Aid taste? Do you feel all superior now?
Do you have to ask, I’m sure you’ve been around long enough to know that anything remotely against the approved group think is verboten, verstehen sie?
Thanks Fungi.
Yes, after I posted it a looked around some more and noticed.
Probably would have seen it before if I had read lower down before responding.
I had a thread deleted the other day. The reason it was deleted was because it was authored by a guy named “Huston”, I believe.
He is on the list of those who cannot be posted here. I suppose he has asked not to be, or he has done something that makes it untenable for him to be posted. I didn’t complain, because I think I remember doing the same thing about 5 or 6 years ago with the same guy.
There are a lot of legal things behind the scenes that determine why some are and some are not deleted.
Obviously, the site itself says that it doesn’t want racist, violent, or abusive threads. Those will be deleted.
I’ve been here since 1998. That’s why I know. I’ve never been anything other than a regular freeper.

“What the heck is GLP?

That’s what I was wondering.
