I debated on saying something, or how I was going to say it. Don't wanna ruffle any feathers, trying to smooth them actually, so please understand that I know we all have our feelings.........I'm just hoping that perhaps I can get some folks to see things in a different light.

If someone came into my house, and either brought something in there that I didn't want, or put something of mine in a place I didn't want it to be........I'd move it or get rid of it. And I really wouldn't be concerned about you not liking that, cuz it's my house and I expect you to do things the way I want them. Yeah, maybe another day someone might do the same thing, but perhaps I'm in a better mood that day, and I don't dislike it as much so I don't move it back. I am only human after all. I don't always see everything the same way all the time. Most of us don't. You'd nearly have to be a robot for that. I think everyone would agree that they'd do what I would do in this situation.

Same for ECF and mods. We're in their house. They have a right to move posts, or delete them, and I guess I just don't understand why some folks take it so personally. They're not being ugly about it.......please don't assume it's a personal thing. They just quietly do it, rather than making a big deal about it. If it's a big thing, they'll give a friendly rules reminder. I've never seen anything hit the fan unless folks start arguing with them or getting ugly with them.

Y'all may disagree, that's fine. And I'm not bein a brown noser or .... kisser, it's just how I see it. I'm not gittin my knickers inna knot cuz someone moves or deletes something I post. I love you all........and hope that maybe this might calm some feelings.


That was a marvelous explanation Deb !
Thank you !

I think the frustration came from the fact the this thread was made because we were getting told/reminded about keeping on topic and to be fair, it was sometimes only around 4 posts off topic, so we came here so we could talk about anything, to a degree, I saw nothing wrong with those posts but they were moved to the outside. Is that where we have to go now, maybe we need a woom outside.
Many members including myself feel that we are being pushed out, not wanted, it has been happening for months and as a result the main womper thread and this thread is practically dead, there are just a few off us left and that is tragic shame no matter which way you look at it.

ok...knock it off.

It wasn't "discussing commercials" that was the cause for the move...it was the topic and you know it.


Now...have a coke and a smile :)



I think I can speak for most here, we never meant to cause any hassle, there is a much bigger picture here that you may or may not be aware of.

Can you close my thread please, enough is enough.

Thank you.

What I see is that when members report posts...staff has to come in and see what is going on and make a call.

So yea, maybe there is a much bigger picture when members are reporting posts...as in they know it isn't an appropriate topic.

Lighten up...NO ONE is "picking on you"

:)

So long Wompers!

@Rixsta @kad2371 Well it does make more sense now if the posts were reported by someone here. Dunno who, promise it wasn't me. I didn't really see why they needed moving, but simply the fact that they were, and that was good enough for me. But hope both of y'all will realize that this was not a case of mods picking on y'all or any of us. Just some housecleaning. When someone complained about the way someone did something, she'd always say, Well, I like the way they're doing it a lot better than the way you're NOT doing it. Being a mod of a site this large isn't easy. But this goes back to what I was saying, don't take things so personally. I don't think either of you were even involved in it, but I don't recall for sure. Someone tried to make my life a misery on here for about 9 months because they took offense over what I said to another person. They weren't involved in it, but took it upon themselves to take offense over it. Please don't y'all do the same.
