Censorship

[anonymous-user]

So I’d not experienced it firsthand until earlier today. Yes my posts can sometimes exceed the swear word quota or come across as yet another mad rant (of many) no doubt, and I may be out on a limb by starting this thread, but nothing I’ve posted until today has ever been completely deleted from a thread, however offensive/nonsensical.

This is not NP&E we’re talking about btw, and I get that there are some limits (rules) of posting here to be maintained but I also get the feeling I touched a nerve or ventured onto a particular topic, a raw nerve if you will, the politics of which will challenge the moderators, and where certain views are perhaps viewed as unsavoury.

Now I’m not saying all views are acceptable or complete nonsense, but generally if you make “thought provoking”or even downright insulting posts on here people will tear you apart for idiocy in the traditional PH manner, and fair enough. But to actually be deleted by a higher power, well that’s uncharted territory so far for me at least.

Without inviting any lifetime bans, is this something you’ve come across ? I’ve heard of NP&E bans for particular arguments and trolling bans for persistent offenders but which should I be wary of, are there particular views or (side of the political spectrum) that can touch a raw nerve to be avoided, or can we discuss all things like adults (!) within reason, without getting completely offended...

It appears that what you posted was deemed offensive and therefore removed.

Can't really see what it has to do with censorship! TBH.

Ok thanks for clarifying, message received & understood. I will be more careful about what I post.
