Ok, let's put today's AC thread to the side for a second as it's purpose was only to complain about threads/posts being removed. We typically remove that type of stuff and ask posters to direct questions regarding moderation to moderator@texags.com. Now that said, AC might have a valid complaint so let's try to get down to that...
What specific threads/posts have been removed that has everyone upset?
There was one of a funny picture involving a hunter and a buck that wouldn't leave the vicinty of the doe that was just shot. Can't remember who the OP was.
The thread you are referring to was titled "Funny Hunting Picture" and it's my understanding that the OP asked us to remove it.
And the OP asked for it to be removed because a very small number of posters got their panties in a bunch and it went sideways.
How about just deleting those posts? It happens on other boards with frequency, but here it seems the entire thread gets nuked simply because somebody somewhere may be upset that something wasn't up to their standards.
And moderators should be known, this is the only board I'm aware of (granted, sample size is pretty small) that moderators get to hide behind the curtain and no explanation is required for action. Of course, this is also the only board that I'm on (again very small sample size) that a handful of perpetually offended posters seem to have significant sway, even when mods tell you that they are constantly getting complaints about those very posters.
