Far be it for me to be one to complain...But...

I've had 3 posts in total, in the last month or so removed, presumably because of content.

The first was a post concerning the late Bill Hicks, his work and comments. This was removed because there were some swear words in it (I quoted his work) and because it was unreligious in nature.
I can live with this post being removed.
I don't agree with it, it bugs the hell out of me, but...I'm not gonna lose any sleep over it (well, I'm an insomniac anyway, whether or not they removed this post wouldn't make a difference).

The second was a full frontal assault on someone who called me a Jew hater. Multiple times.
So, I went on the attack and called him, his mother and everybody else I could imagine into disprepute (without swearing, I might add, in a very poetic manner as well) and my post was removed.
Ironically enough, my complaint about him slandering me, was totally ignored and his comments stand to this day.
Am I to presume that the moderators of this board are religious, right-wing and biased?

Now a third post of mine has been removed. It was how to make LSD, in a thread about spells. I did mention it was a joke, in the same post, but someone seemingly has removed it.
Three posts above mine is the recipe for making bombs.
Now, I have no problem with people making bombs, sucking LSD tabs or swimming the English channel, but to censor the recipe for LSD (which can be found on the internet, because that's where I found it) which was too complicated to be of any use, but leave the recipe for making a bomb (which can also be found on the internet) is so far beyond the capabilities and probabilities of my imagination that my brain packed it in and went on a vacation.

A five minute vacation. It is back now.

How on earth can this be?
What sort of message is being sent out here?

1. Don't post anything which quotes swear words
2. Be slanderous, but don't mock someone's family.
3. Blow people up, but don't hallucinate

Am I the only person who finds this all a little strange? I'm sure I'll get the little mail explaining that someone found my recipe offensive, but unless they tried it and it didn't work, then I'm not really interested.

Seriously, is this going to be a re-occuring theme?

i don't think posts are removed simply because someone finds it offensive. there are plenty of posts around which are offensive due to content or due to being spam.

i do not recall the posts you have had removed, but that's probably because because i can't see them.

is it possible that you had violated some aspect of the TOS in the latter two (the first seem pretty clear)?

in any case, discuss it with the mods - they are reasonable and nice people.

in friendship,
prad

Let's leave mothers out of our attacks on each other...they are the last vestiges of hope and security...that should be a common agreement among everyone, no matter your political/religious slant...😉

Well I had a couple removed also. While I may say some derogatory things to the person I would never badmouth his mother. That is a butt kicking offense. And if I did say something about that persons mother I would least do it in his presence instead of on a keyboard like some internet Rambo.

Dude, what's wrong with the Dutch sewers? They do their job excellent! 😀

BTW, the way you talk about Europe, makes me think you're the communist here, but I guess that's just my opinion.... you'll have to forgive me about that, afterall, I'm only Dutch. 😵

I talk about Europe 'cause I'm second generation European and I've been there enough times to know what I'm talking about, but now I consider myself 100% American, thank God..., yes, God exists...I'm not anti-European any more than Ian Pickering is anti-American; however, I am anti-Eurotrash, and I see a lot of that here lately, especially from the sewers of Holland...are you and Shavixmir butt-hole buddies?

Ahhhh, homophobia, clever. I would have thought that a man who takes his rhp name from someone who spends their time fixing up horny sailors with the clap would be a little more enlightened. I have on several occasions criticised Ianpickering for his blatant anti-americanism, and it really is petty and small minded the amount of posts he makes on the same(ish) topics. They offend me. America is a wonderful country that has offered the world a lot and will hopefully continue to do so far beyond my lifetime, but that post you just made represented to me all it's lowest points. I think it was unworthy of you, as although you have many different political viewpoints as myself, you have generally made your points courteously and well put. That last post was disgusting, reactionary, generalising, homophobic and xenophobic.

You're wrong, matey, I ain't scared of Homos so don't be afraid..yeah, I do fix up guys and girls who get the clap, so come see me if you get a dose...by the way"butthole buddy" doesn't necessarily mean antit-Queer, you just made an ass out yourself for ASSuming that I am homophobic.....thanks for acknowledging my past post, but let me ask you a question: Why aren't you jumping Shavixmir's ass for insulting someone's father?...is that not low-lifish, or do you and the Dutchies stick together so no matter how vile they are, you will support them?...cheers

OK, since the moderators are biased as hell here, I'll be more kind...you are less than a rat for badmouthing someone's Dad who did nothing to you...but you're still a low-life commie, Dutchie boy...🙂

Well at least I know who mine is. Heck I was in Holland 25 years ago I might be your Dad. Was your mom's name Gerta?
