    Default Censorship and editing - split from some political thread or other

    What happened to my post? I read your response Mark. I even replied to it. But your post has been altered and mine has been outright deleted.

    Although I could be wrong. It has been known to happen.

    Still, all the same i'd like to know.......

    @sidney:
    No posts have been deleted in this thread as far as I can tell.
    They could have been moved away, but I don't see any moved posts offline either.

    EDIT: We never ever alter posts. We delete them, or move them offline and tell the poster to either post a changed version, or approve a change to the existing post.

    EDIT2: and if we delete of remove a post, the poster is always notified to inform him or her what happened, and why it happened. we also notify each other so that all mods re in the loop on something.

    As someone pointed out to me, we do edit our own posts of course.

    What kind of a hoglahoo would be so retentive as to notify you of something so obvious?

    Sometimes I have to wonder about some of you straight razor shavers!

    Lee please edit your above post. The editing content and nature of the post is clearly intended to provoke and I for one am shocked, appalled and disgusted at you.

    PS. Isnt censoring a form of editing?

    No. If I remove what you said, I don't change the content. I only prevent people from seeing it.
    But editing would be a form of censoring.

    Can I request this talk about censorship and editing be splintered to a new thread? I am enjoying the discussion but dont want to continue to lead the discussion too far off topic.

    And yes OK lee you can make a joke about this request being some form of editing/censoring. I dont see how you can tho...
