Pub meet thread removed in Essex section?

[frayz]

Apparantly due to breach of rule 7?

What's rule 7 then and why was I allowed to post up the meet last month?
Is this some sort of mixup?

Rule 7 is here

http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/rules.htm

We have been consistently removing threads that have been seen or reported.

However if you have had prior approval to post a thread of that nature from Paul Garlick, then I can C&P your post into a mail to save you a re type.

I have no approval as I had no idea I required approval. It took me a search to try and find the rules of posting as these are no easily found.
I had hosted this meet on PH last month without issue and raised awareness of other gatherings in the Essex area. Non of these have ever been removed, so I had no idea I was breaking any rules.
These meets are not McDonalds carparks full of corsas either. Lol

How do I seek approval from Mr Garlick then?

I didn't see this Essex one but, to be crystal, posts inviting other PH contibutors to meet for a drink are frowned upon and will be removed?

Simple answer your thread wasn't spotted or reported so it slipped through the net.

Rules of posting can be found right here on this page

Scroll down to the bottom of the page and the link is on the bottom right, or if you are typing a reply they are the third link just above the text box you type in.

Seems you get hold of the wrong end of the stick quite often.

Nothing to do with members meeting up it's to do with a breach of the rules and consistant moderation.

HTH explain

How's that?

You never seem to grasp (or want too) the real reasons for what we do, you only comment to have a pop at the moderation of the site.

Again you can use the link to Garlick below to complain if you wish.

Again HTH.

The inference is that I'm considered obtuse or an agitator and that I’m at it all the time.

That’s unfair but if it’s what you reckon then so be it.
