What he said. I've had posts deleted because people don't understand English humour as well. That's probably as a result of taking the "u" out of it.

You sound like a sheep. I was having an honest bitcoin discussion and analysis of the factors that will effect the price, I broke no rules there is no justification for this, it is purely a bitter staff member who deleted my thread because they didn't like my analysis.

Well I have never seen anyone else here complaining about an issue like this. There must have been some kind of reason for them to delete your posts, the moderators on this forum are very fair and nice people. You can maybe ask them why your posts were deleted. You most likely broke a forum rule.

Is one not allowed to post their opinion on the future of bitcoin? You corrupt admins/mods silence me and delete my posts because you don't agree with it, truly pathetic. Are you that power hungry that you need to go around and delete a post just because you don't agree with it? Whoever deleted my thread just turn your computer off and go to bed little kiddo you are a joke.

If you're opinion was about future of bitcoin in the topic where discussions are about current state of bitcoin,don't you think it will be off-topic ? Would make more sense if you tell us what exactly was deleted ?

Speak for yourself and stop pretending that there is some kind of obvious majority behind you that is supporting you deleting other people comments. You think you know what people want to listen? You think you know what trolling is and what is meant seriously? It is not that "the people" don't want to listen to my posts it is that YOU don't want to listen to my posts! Just because YOU don't want to listen to certain posts it doesn't mean others think the same way. Ignorance is bliss. Stop deleting my posts!

If you're so sure others want to listen to you, go start your own website and see how many hits you get. Otherwise, quit complaining. In case you didn't notice, this forum is not your property and you have no right make yourself heard here. Go somewhere else if you don't like it.

As staff said above, there's no constitution and no amendments thereof, so your "freedom of speech" is meaningless. In my experience, people who bitch about such things on the internet have no grasp of that US-centric concept. This really is a private forum, not a government one.

Having said that, I've had plenty of posts deleted, and most of them were justly deleted (probably for trolling-like comments). Just suck it up and move on. And abide by the rules here.

What was the opinion that was deleted that "the mods" do not agree with so strongly that they felt it needed to be deleted? What thread was it posted in?

Probably not. Its much more likely that you broke a rule. Even if moderators were allowed to delete posts they just don't agree with, there aren't enough hours in the year to do so. So, we just have to settle for only deleting posts that are against the rules. It might be helpful if you let us know the contents of the post that was deleted, as well as the thread it was in, so we can either tell you why it was deleted, or fix it if it was a mistake.

You can always reply them asking what is the reason why your post are deleted, you dont need to post about that here.
