Policy over personality. Hate his personality--but I hate Biden's BS even more.
So you don't mind Trumpty's authoritarian bent? His admiration for strongmen like Putin? You're okay with that?
Obviously, I'm not.
Were any other posters restricted, that you know of?
I've heard similar discussions about our obsolescing shopping malls. There certainly are plenty of people to house, and these structures already come with retail space, gardens and communal dining areas.
Yes, I've read about those too. And evidently where they have been built, they're popular.
That would be appropriate. I don't even know why he apparently doesn't like me.
It is only after all this time that I decided to post and see if ghosting is normal here on IHUB?
I don't really know if it is or not. I do know that Shelly is probably overworked. IHub used to have five admins; now it has only one, and that's Shelly. And certainly if either Shelly or Dave does reply to a complaint about deletions, and then is asked about the same violation again and again, they will stop replying. That only makes sense.
Let's take it to the Q&A board.
The fact is that ghosting a paying member who is simply asking - FOR THE FIRST TIME - for an explanation - especially when he has a pretty good line of reasoning, is not appropriate.
Is it really the first time, or just the first time in that context? Had you argued about other deletions on that board? If you have a post deleted that you feel shouldn't have been deleted, the appropriate thing to do is request an admin review. If your post is restored, you can conclude that admin agreed it wasn't a violation; if it isn't restored, you can conclude that she believed it was a violation.
If the latter--and if you continue to have posts deleted--you need to figure out why that's happening. Usually it is not difficult. Then stop doing whatever it is, whether you agree with that aspect of the TOU or not. That will solve your problem.
Have you made any Admin Review requests? I'm betting not. As a mod, I concluded long ago that just about nobody does, because they'd rather complain publicly. And that will just lead to more post deletions.
They would be very good.
That is just bizarre.
Are you confusing board mods with admins? There is really only one admin left, and that is Shelly. Dave sometimes pitches in to help. It sounds to me as if your real problem is that for one reason or another, on a specific board you're having a lot of posts deleted by a mod.
You then reacted by escalating the situation in your replies, and had more posts deleted on that board.
So finally Shelly did get involved, perhaps, and sent you messages you missed because you didn't read them or look for them. And you got a posting restriction.
Or maybe not, because you seem to be able to post here without impediment. Are you just saying you have a posting restriction on that particular board?
That is an excellent one!
Yes. Baloney with olives in it. Ugh. Though I must say, the bread in that photo looks very good.
At least 90% of the people who use the term "communist" have no idea what the word means.
At least.
Christ on a crutch you're a real charmer...
I try to go the extra mile. I think you, like your hero, fail to understand what "free speech" is. It has nothing to do with commercial websites allowing members to say whatever they want. It has to do with governments suppressing dissent.
This is remarkable:

I'm sorry. But as Arizona said, they looked like clowns.
For heaven's sake! Would you seriously be scared of MAGA Mike?? Or any of the others?
Now if you were taking MTG or Bobo, maybe. But not the wimps who turned up in court, like his obedient servants.
Yes.
She does seem to enjoy them. Evidently the other First Ladies are civil to her.
Oooh. The show I was watching just ended, and I exited to Lawrence O'Donnell. Who said, "This is like a trial at an old folks' home."
Yes. Though as of this moment, he's still alive. But perhaps he won't be in the morning. If so, will Trumpty attend the state funeral?
No. A computer was responsible for the halts.
Your video isn't working because you used two backslashes...
Apparently Jimmy Carter is dying... I'd sort of hoped he'd make it to 100, but it's probably better this way:
Jimmy Carter's grandson has shared that his grandfather is nearing the end of his days. President Carter made sure that we can rest in the shade of the trees he planted, and may he have rest eternal when it is his time. God bless this good man. pic.twitter.com/F0OLI6fYys

Christ on a crutch. You're a real charmer. Do you call everyone who disagrees with you a "communist"?
Really? Now, now. Who tried to harm your beloved pet with a lead-filled snowshoe?
You can tell us.
Cohen had a good deal of money at the time. Millions in properties, some of them in Trump Tower. So maybe his bank knew he'd be good for it. And probably the people there also knew he worked for Trump.
I don't know whether his wife was also a signatory or not.
Again, I don't believe it was an "accident".
Bullshit. What about the journalists he banned? Musk wants to be King of the World, and thinks he deserves to be, simply because he's very rich.
Okay. Here we have several.

And I'm sure that's by no means all the articles. Only a few I found quickly.
Ah yes, that is also true.
People have certainly complained about being banned. Obviously I can't confirm that.
Obviously Musk thinks it's okay to allow white supremacists to post there unhindered, and even promotes their posts.
That's disgusting.
my understanding is the feds have declined to charge Trump with these transactions
And? The feds decided not to bother. Bragg decided to go ahead.
It was still "unlawful". And since Trumpty ordered it--and there's a document showing he did--he's also guilty.
Exactly. That is one of the many problems.
Yes, it is sad. I've never been there, but for many years the auto companies spared no expense. I think Grosse Pointe is still nice, and has retained some wealth, but Detroit itself is kind of dangerous. Lots and lots of abandoned buildings. Kind of like Rome after the sack.
Probably it'll make a comeback one day, but that day had better come before those beautiful buildings fall apart.
