    Default Is this a dictatorship?

    Just curious, as I created a thread, which was fine, people were discussing the topic.

    Today I came on and I had a negative reputation point, which I couldn't honestly care less about.

    Upon checking the rep point thingy I found my thread had been renamed to sound derogatory and it's been deleted.

    I've really enjoyed posting here, but If I can't express views without children throwing hissy fits and abusing powers I'll find another website!

    So is this common place on these forums?

    If it the one about Lewis and his girlfriend, it's been moved, not deleted.

    there are many layers to this place and as your new not everything has been opened up to you yet... it will be.

    your thread still lives and i'm guessing the mod who moved didn't realise you wouldn't be able to see it as they would have sent you a PM.

    as for common place then yes if a mod finds the need to move, delete or lock your thread then they will... if that offends you then by all means find another website.

    Don't create sexist or misogynistic threads on the main board and they won't get moved or deleted, simple as that. I hope you decide to stick around, but there are certain things here that just don't fly and that is one of them.

    If this was a dictatorship I would be the only person posting here. I love the idea of that.

    This place is not a dictatorship at all. In fact pretty much anything goes just as long as you post it in the right places. I've said so many offensive things over the years, but have never been banned and only had a couple of threads moved off of the main board. I probably benefited from being sane during the first few years of my posting though. You should be more sane first. That always helps.

    Nah, the trick is not to be too sensitive.

    There are all sorts of people on here, with their own motivations for joining and posting: there are some hardcore genuine knowledgeable boxing fans, there are fighters, amateurs and ex boxers, there are martial arts people, there are some teenage geeks who rant on about shit and hide behind their anonymity and there are trolls. Not everybody is always the same thing, depensing on what mood they're in.

    Stick with it, and you will soon get to 'know' the regular posters. Welcome aboard.

    The guys here are not silly or dictatorish about posts, to be fair, I myself have posted some unbelievably obscene rantings well hidden amongst my usual high quality, discerning and profound posts. In fact, I have a couple of threads that I would highly recommend to you when you have been here a while

    I probably sad clicked you.

    I have often been doing this to absolutely any post I disagree with slightly with lately. Merely because I believe the sad click/negative rep option is used too little, and pos. rep. is only good if it is the context of at least the possibility of some negative feedback.

    In advance: Thanks jackass for neg repping me.

    You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Vendettos again.

    Sad clicks are soon heading your way.
