@fmf saidThat’s evidence that there’s a new mod? Maybe the previous ones are just more active now. Or maybe an obnoxious poster has crossed a threshold. I recall Duchess overstepped the TOS for quite a while before the axe fell. That wasn’t because of a new moderator.
@moonbus
There has clearly been a big shift in the deleting of posts and threads in 2022, and the last few weeks have been odd. Posts and threads are getting deleted because some persons unknown just don't like them and not because of TOS issues. It would seem to be a kind of game that's being made possible by a cooperative and/or sympathetic moderator. That's how I see it. If you don't recognize this, or if you think I am wrong, that's OK.
@very-rusty saidThat's exactly the way I see it.
Correct if I am wrong here. So you are saying that a Moderator is removing posts just because he/she can?

And the beneficiary of these deleted threads, is the same guy who whines about getting red thumbs all of the time.
Like most bullies, dude can dish it... but he just can't eat it.
He gets his clock cleaned in a few threads and he runs crying to his Moddy.
As well, the collaborative Moderator should be ashamed. π
@moonbus saidLongstanding mod Silverstriker, all-round reasonable and unflappable guy, told me earlier this year his "services were no longer required" and suddenly resigned all his games and had his account deleted. I think the moderating has been different ever since.

@woofwoof saidWait. Are you saying you think divegeester had those threads deleted?

@fmf saidOk, so maybe he was replaced. But that is speculation. We don’t know that vacancies are always re-filled. If his services were no longer required, that suggests that the post was dissolved and not re-filled.

@moonbus saidDuches64 went bonkers in her last few weeks here, most of which she spent, atypically, on this forum. In the days leading up to the deletion of her account, her posting reached a kind of fever pitch of sexual insults aimed at me and, peculiarly, my wife. Plus other apoplectic frenzied stuff. I see her exclusion as more of a bizarre autodestruct event than a moderators issue.

@ghost-of-a-duke saidHey, we all get posts removed, even the TWINS!!! π
Yes, some of my posts were removed.
