How come every thread I have been on today is deleted?

I have seen no one use vulgarity or bash someone else. But why are we all being censored blanketly? Can't the moderators boot the single comments that taint the thread? I know this is probably hard to do for every thread, but then again, it's not as hard as holding a rifle to defend that freedom.

    I agree. I understand there are rules, but I'd like some clarification to those rules if entire posts are going to be removed when there isn't a violation according to the terms of the forums. Since the consistancy is gone people are pushing the rules and playing instigator just to find out what boundries.

    Good point, which is why I can't complain about any censoring. It's a free (non-pay) forum, with rules already outlined in the terms. Makes for some entertaining drama though.

    While I agree that it is their site and they can do what ever they want with it, they have set up rules like no vulgarity, personal attacks, or starting threads of blogs about individuals, but seem to go ahead and censor for things not in their list of rules. I thinks it's horsepoop that you can have a fun, free-spirited thread going and then one jack wagon can post one cuss word and get the whole thing wiped clean.

    Also, if the moderators don't want to deal with all of this drama, get rid of sections like "Chit chat" or blogs and just make everything weight related. If you are going to turn this into a social networking site for fitness and include non-fitness areas where drama builds up, then either ease the censorship or get rid of those sections.

    I think they disagree with what it is said in the topics, and since they lack of knowledge about what to answer, they can only hit "Delete Topic"

    ahh just witnessed it, apparently a "should I get my wife diamond earrings or a pearl necklace" is way too risque for the boards. which I guess means I am too....
