Topic: Trouble understanding post moderation. (Read 1499 times)
Super. Thanks again!
Thanks for clearing it up mprep.
I'm still unclear about the swearing though. Is that acceptable?
I'm not asking permission to go on a cursing rampage btw
I think this particular post that was deleted was in fact my worst ever use of language around here
EDIT: And I'll have the apple sauce, thank you
As long as the post doesn't consist solely of swearing (has some sort of argument or provides information, a.k.a is constructive), then it's OK to do so. I'm still unclear about the swearing though. Is that acceptable?

You can curse. I have used the f bomb many times.
Sometimes the mods delete you or me or anyone
when the thread is knocked really off track.
Cursing like I am blanking your mom will get deleted.
Cursing like btc price is bouncing up and down like a mofo. today if on topic will not get deleted.

Hi there!
I've had a post deleted by a forum moderator, and while I suspect the reason for the removal, I would appreciate a clarification from any forum moderator as to the rule in question. My point is not to troll the moderators or the forum, I just want to be certain of what caused by post to be deleted, so that I can stick to the rules and avoid future posts from taking the same fate.
Here's the message and deleted post:
The bottom portion of the post was quite on-topic, and had significant followup from both the thread OP as well as other community members.
The top portion was a brief reaction to a post by one persistent troll that keeps posting on that thread with all sorts of non-sense propaganda, trying to push a certain agenda forward. This is a fancy troll, in that he writes eloquently enough that he might persuade the less critical readers, using systematic deception tactics and extreme persistence.
For this reason alone, I granted him a response. Otherwise he remains on my ignore list and I don't generally respond to trolls.
So my question is: was my post deleted due to swearing (couple instances of the F word), or was it something else? Is swearing strictly - or even casually - against the forum rules? I've read a good few newbie guides and such, but haven't really found this to be stated anywhere...
Thanks for your time.
It was deleted as it consisted mostly of off-topic content as well as due to the fact that I was cleaning up an off-topic discussion (that included the "troll" you were referring to posts). I've had a post deleted by a forum moderator, and while I suspect the reason for the removal, I would appreciate a clarification from any forum moderator as to the rule in question.

I sympathize with the child there. Freedom of speech is only ever a good thing when I am free to say whatever the fuck I want, and others can only say whatever the fuck pleases my ears. Smooth must not be allowed to express his opinion by means of post/trust/rating/whatever! Oh ... Wait ... I see what you did there 
Guess you were spotted very early on, off you go back on ignore little Inquisitive Troll(TM).
Please stop posting off-topic nonsense on this thread.
I haven't followed developments as closely as I would like, do we have any up-to-date community built binaries so I could try out the DB version on my Windows box? I know of the cautionary notes and caveats, just wondering if anyone has published binaries yet.
