Recently Aynat created an important thread which asked for people to help children who have had their innocence stolen from them.

I was wondering why this thread was removed? Was it something that was considered too much of a debate thread? If so, why not move it to the debate forum? Or was it because it was too frighteningly real for people in the virtual world?

I thought it was a very worthwhile, if shocking, thread.
Child abuse is an issue that needs people to be made aware of.
Perhaps it would have been better suited to the debates forum, but I think deletion was unnecessarily heavy-handed.

with the greatest of respect, i have to disagree. i'm glad the thread was removed. not because of the issue it raised, but because of the hysterical manner in which the author chose to convey his/her message. it was badly written, subjective, and heavy-handed, and used language inappropriate to the matter being discussed.

as usual, imho.

That is one of the sickest stupidest posts I've ever read. If there is a problem like that, a chess forum is not the place to ask about it. There are councilors, police, lawyers, etc in real life that should be contacted.

What a bull crap thread.

There have been so many casual references to child sexual assault and pornography here in the forums


That is bull crap too.
