In the mean time I am again requesting that this post be deleted. It violates the current users agreement, your TOU and the Rants board Ibox.

It also appears that it is an even better example of Churak's post that got deleted off of the NOLIB board.

Matt, I have a new issue for you, as you slide down this slippery slope of giving unchecked deletion authority to board moderators.

Today I made a factual (link) post to a post on the NOLIB thread. The post was related to the discussion, and had no vulgarity. Learning from you and Churak's experience on that thread, I sent PM's to two of the board's three moderators to find out why my post had been deleted.

I was told that my post had not been read, and that it was deleted because I responded to a "non-invited" poster. I hope you can see what happened, for this is what I've been railing against -- arbitrary deletion for WHO I am, or WHO I posted to, NOT for what I said nor whether it violated the User Agreement.

So, let me ask you publicly and formally, please restore my post on the NOLIB board unless you can tell me where I have violated the iHub User Agreement.

The relevant portion of the User Agreement, as I see it, is:

Chairman (and Directors) of personal (non-stock-specifc) boards are allowed to remove any post that falls into the following categories: Duplicate, Vulgarity, Off Topic, Personal Attack, Violation of Privacy, Threat, Thread Disruption. We do reserve the right to step in if we see blatant abuse of your Chairman features.

BTW, besides myself, two others had their posts deleted today too. They can protest for restoration themselves. I'm only asking you to look at my deleted post.

Thank you,

AK

My apology, sir. I wrote that last message before I saw your prohibition ... which I think is good. I suppose I could go and delete the content before the edit window expires, but the hell with it. It took me too long to write.
