Brian Kirby Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 The above string appears to have completely disappeared. Did someone say naughty words, or what? Anyone know? Just, as someone on here used to say, askin'. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulletguy Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Numerous threads are getting pulled Brian with no reason given. All it takes is one "offending" post and the entire thread gets pulled instead of the post. The last time that particular thread was in my history was yesterday.

Keithl Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 I have posted on the Chatterbox Standards sticky thread previously that I have instructions from Daniel to remove any post which contains offensive language or comments or in which posters start trading insults. The post referred to by Brian resorted to offensive language which most definitely was not appropriate for a public forum so the entire thread was removed. Keep it decent and follow the rules and threads will not be removed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B Dobson Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Thanks Keith . It's something I've tried to get across to one or three of our valued members that swearing is not acceptable on a family forum . Maybe removal from the forum is the only answer for the persistent offenders? Without mentioning names I hope Barryd999 takes notice of mine, Keith's and Daniels stance on vulgarity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like we said at the last OAL boardroom meeting those that want vulgarity should either rent cheap pornographic videos or join motorhome fruitcakes . Me and the hubby have never liked either .

That never stopped you from creating another account to log back in under another username as this is your third attempt after being banned from OAL.

Thankyou . Well lets be honest you preferred the days when you and John 52 sent each other unchallenged anti-Brexit/Boris/Tory/English daily messages via Chatterbox didn't you . Now theres also the return of a little humour that you find difficult to understand its obviously very frustrating . Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keithl Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Often there are more than one offending posts on a thread before I see them and just deleting odd posts leaves the thread disjointed. Also where the offending post has been quoted it makes it extremely difficult to remove the offending part hence the whole thread gets removed. Remember, keep it decent and there will be no need to remove posts and/or threads! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK, I have just found a way to remove individual posts without actually deleting them and destroying any evidence for possible action by the admins. I can 'Hide' a post so only mods and admins can see it. Let's see how that works out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there any chance you could run a league table as to who the "real" offenders are and how many of their posts / threads get pulled? The loser (the most offensive) has to buy everyone a case of beer or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have a problem Keith, Its clear what the agenda is though. It matters not one whit to me but if Chatterbox becomes stale and over censored then ill just stop using it. Most forums off topic allow a degree of mild swear words or the odd funny risque photo for a bit of leg pulling. In fact most proper forums have built in censors. Its a two minute job on my own forum to make a list of censored words and apply them to posts so why not just do that? (Although to be fair we dont censor anything).

You dont need swear words wether mild or not on any forum especially one thats family orientated like this . If you need to swear to get your point across or post almost pornographic material then like Keith says move on, catch the big red bus over to Motorhome Fun .
