What determines whether or not you can tag a poster? Is there a time frame since their last log in or something?

I’m not sure. You should be able to tag anyone, as far as I know.

@Freak @vollygirl I've had multiple posts deleted without an explanation given, nor them being any worse than an overwhelming amount of other posts I see that get to stay up... I kinda feel like one of the mods has it out for me...

when an unconstructive post is deleted any replies are usually also removed. Looks like that's what happened today

I appreciate the response, but I feel it's a pattern of mod behavior that has become pretty prevalent... This extends past today going back 3 or 4 months maybe...

What constitutes an "unconstructive post"???

In your case today, a guy calling you an idiot and calling your car a pos was removed, hence your replies were also removed.

Asking someone if they have downs or calling them a bitch would likely be unconstructive

I appreciate you helping to make my point with that post... Your use of the word "unconstructive" in your initial post and then "likely" are pretty much open to literally any interpretation at all...

(1) At what point is a post, not likely, but definitely "unconstructive" (whatever that subjective term means)???
(2) At what point does "likely" become "definitively"??? Please note that this is a separate question from #1...
(3) Have my deleted posts been reported and had the attention called to the mods before a mod has acted on them???
(4a) If so, could I get specific instances of the reports upon deletion to review??? - To just delete it without explanation, given the extremely subjective terms of what qualifies seems pretty nonsensical...
(4b) If not, do the mods have the authority to delete posts that they personally have a problem with but no one else has filed reports on... Especially given the incredibly subjective nature of deletion listed above???

There are times on this board, I think literally asking someone if they have Downs is absolutely as logical a question as a person can ask... I can not see people on the other side of the screen... If I'm talking to someone that is, at least on some level developmentally challenged, that would be pretty useful information when dealing with someone... I mean, after we beat South Carolina someone posted "Take that Kirby! We're not your bitch any more!" Like that implies at least some real mental challenges on the side of the poster, and that kind of information would help in crafting a response...

I think deleting a post that asks a simple, yet contextually valid, question like that is actually itself "unconstructive"...

At this point, we've got a pretty good sense of the content we do and don't want and what type of posts derail threads and we do the best we can.

Email Freak if you have an issue.

Carry on.

The rules are here if you're confused. See number 3, specifically.

Board Guidelines: PLEASE READ

Mods remove posts that violate those rules, such as your posts:

"you're a bitch"
"you have downs"
"you dumb ****ing retard"
"This is what a dumbsh*t looks like friends... Don't let it happen to your friends and family if you can help it..."
"Lol you're an idiot..."
etc.

This site isn't for everyone. I'm sure 100 different people could come up with 100 different sets of guidelines, but those are ours. If you're looking for a site where the above such posts aren't flagged, you're in the wrong place. If you'd like to discuss further, feel free to email me at vol_freak@yahoo.com.
