mrpez Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 what the hell happened to the old one? i cant find it and when i search for it nothing comes up. edit: if it was deleted then just start over here. (or if some mod can sticky a working out topic?) if it deleted i think it was unnecessary. the last post rarex made may have been offensive, but its not grounds to delete a whole topic.

Ouchy Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 I'm stumped on why we cannot find it. Normally, a moderator will lock a thread, so that other users can see that it is locked, and why it is locked, rather than deleting it (Assuming that it was deleted, which I am sure it wasn't). And usually if an inappropriate post is made, moderators either remove it completely, or edit it out. My relaxation method involves a bottle of lotion, beautiful women, and partial nudity.

Intriguing Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 To Ouchy: It was deleted. =\ The few posts I made there aren't coming up in my recent posts. In addition, I followed a link to it, and it came up with "You are not authorized to read this forum." It seems like a bit of a rash decision assuming it was deleted. There was only really one post in there that warranted Mod action. Cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jemathonical Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Why would a working out topic need to be stickied? It is popular enough so it will stay on the first page for a while anyway. And no thread is ever 'deleted', just moved to a mod only board. But I don't think this is the right place to discuss. ^Sir Jem 05-The Bunny Drinking Blog?^ Click it!

pryomancer Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 The topic is in a non-public forum, it hasn't been deleted. I'm sure whichever moderator moved it had a good enough reason. It could be a number of things, don't start bashing them when you don't know the motives behind it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ouchy Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 You always get "You Are Not Authorized" if a thread does not exist, which would suggest that it was deleted... :| My best guess is to ask a Moderator about this. Pyromancer is browsing Off Topic now, so maybe he can help us? EDIT: Lol :lol: My relaxation method involves a bottle of lotion, beautiful women, and partial nudity. Yes I get massages.

And no thread is ever 'deleted', just moved to a mod only board. But I don't think this is the right place to discuss. as the post has been deleted/moved without notice, this is our replacement. i think we have a right to discuss it, where else can we do it? i made many posts in that topic and it was pretty much the only reason i came to tipit. a working out topic deserves a sticky more than "post pictures of your desktop!" or "post pictures of your pets!" it can benefit everyone on these boards whereas a picture of your dog really wont do [cabbage] for me. The topic is in a non-public forum, it hasn't been deleted. I'm sure whichever moderator moved it had a good enough reason. It could be a number of things, don't start bashing them when you don't know the motives behind it. the only reason it could have been moved was a post rarex made, which could have simply been deleted. perhaps said mod has something against exercise.

Intriguing Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 mrpez: Well, perhaps previous posts had contributed to it? I'm not really able to comment, as that was pretty well the only time I had looked at the thread. For the time being I'm just going to assume that the Mod knew what they were doing--they generally do. jemathonical: Who suggested it should be stickied? And it was removed from our view, so it's pretty well the same thing as being deleted. Cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pryomancer Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 If there was a dangerous link in a post, I'd sooner move the whole topic quickly out of the public access, rather than try and split the topic which might take longer. There's one possible reason. And too many stickys are a bad thing, we're trying to keep them to a minimum. Every popular topic doesn't need to be sticky'd.

Ouchy Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 This topic does not need to be stickyed. If this one was, then every other person that has made a topic here will request that there's should be stickyed too, which would cause havoc. EDIT: And too many stickys are a bad thing, we're trying to keep them to a minimum. Every popular topic doesn't need to be sticky'd. I'm sure we all remember the old General Discussion and its Stickys...Lets not make Off Topic like that... My relaxation method involves a bottle of lotion, beautiful women, and partial nudity.

mrpez Posted October 2, 2008 Author Share Posted October 2, 2008 for christ's sake can we move the hell away from the subject of a sticky? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laikrob Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 The Working out topic was temporarily moved out of public view about an hour ago because of some highly disturbing content. Actions have been taken against the poster, and the topic is currently being cleaned of said content and responses to it. It will be moved back when this is done. I apologise that an announcement wasn't made immediately, but we've had a busy morning with multiple bans and lots of action. Honestly, I had no idea that it would cause this much reaction in such short time - I now know better next time. :) Laikrob, Tip.It Moderator You're accusing me of bigotry, how ironic. It's a nice attempt at argument, but your responses are facile and asinine, if not diatribe. Who's arrogant now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
