Again.
A report was made.
The mod in question saw the report had merit.
The post was deleted.

If you believe a post is disrespectul hit the report button, explain your case to the team, and if we think your point is valid we will act appropriatly.

Personally I would have been happy to delete the comments saying other acts were put to shame, but you didn't report it for our attention, so don't blame us that your point is overlooked

If I had been keen on a discussion like the one you just started, I would have posted something in the Feedback Central section instead. Now that would have been fun...

And it would have run exactly like this one I think

I'd still be saying the same old lines.

"We do what we can to ensure freedom of speech in a respectful enviroment."

"If you don't like something, report it to us and make your case so we can act on it."

There's only so many times I can say that.

If that was true there wouldn't be half as many clashes on this forum.
I don't think some of the people posting in this thread right now would ever discribe themselves as sycophants

But clashes there are.

We've been told by Meat and Paul we are not supportive enough.............

....told by a group of fans that we don't do enough to make this a place of positivity for Meat..............

....and told by another group of fans that we are sycophats who delete anything we don't agree with and abuse their rights to free speech.


Usually all at the same time.

Ladies and Gentelmen, welcome to no mans land

Yeah, sorry, it's the best saying I could come up with at the time
We're not feeding the members here, but we are supplying a platform for our members to air their views.
