If there was a facepalm sign, this would be a perfect time to use it.

I remember when LJ started a thread about some mail that didnt get sent out and people were busting his balls about it so he shut the thread down but when the tables are turned and LJ is busting on other people then its ok and the thread survives. Its kind of ironic how that works sometimes.

The only thread I know of was about meat, not mail. LJ asked wes to lock it but I was unaware of the whole ordeal. When I found out it was locked I opened it back up. The thread was later deleted by LJ on accident due to a bug in the forum software. Is there another thread I am missing?

If we're going to attempt to protect posters from looking ignorant that thread should have gone by he wayside long ago, but the damage is already done.

I don't think it has anything to do with 'protecting posters'. It's just a topic that adds nothing b/c nobody can have a sensible discussion about it.

That thread just made a lot of people look stupid and it would have only went downhill from there.
I was going by the reason given...

The one that was shut down was just making a bunch of people look like idiots. Can't argue that.

Racism is a touchy subject and immature views, as well as people just trying to be idiotic is just going to lead more problems on here. I just moved the thread to the mod forum....if justincredible feels it is ok, then he can open it back up. There was absolutely nothing constructive on that thread, so I moved it.

I don't blame you wes, I would have done the same, nothing ever good comes out of it.

Point is, every thread on the subject ends with the same result, thinking some consistency would be beneficial.

I agree with that. I try to give everyone the benefit of the doubt on subjects like that. But it appears that maybe the best solution to it is to not allow that subject to be addressed. The idea behind this website is for it to be a place to come to and shoot the shit without being censored, but the ignorance shown by some is offensive to others.

Unfortunately, no one really cares what you think about anything, since all you've been doing for the past eternity is showing off to others just how immature you are.

Instead of following me around, why don't you go grab a last minute Valentine's Day gift for your boyfriend?

Just one other. The OP was getting it handed to himself and he decided to "yank" the thread to avoid further embarrassment.
One other huh? There have been plenty of threads that were pulled. And "getting it handed to himself?" I didn't feel offended at all or like I was getting anything. I dunno what your obsession is with me, but it's creepy.

LJ claimed he went to delete a post somewhere and axed the entire damn thing by mistake.

I'm not saying he's full of shit or not because I don't know or care, but this was his response to it.
Yeah, I had like 10 firefox tabs open and thought I was deleting a post in the Steelers thread because I realized it had already been discussed, wasn't paying attention and accidentally deleted a post in that thread. There happens to be a glitch and when I deleted that post it took the whole thread out. Justin can verify that this is the only way that I could delete a thread in this forum.

OK BRF, I'll post this to get your thread over the 50 mark so you'll have a shot at the FFT standings, I know that's all you're looking to accomplish here. ;)

That's funny! :-). I don't start many threads, but the ones I do turn out pretty well!

The Mods on this site go over and above in the allowance of free speech, imo.
