Censored my ass. Everything I deleted was within quote tags and appeared to be identical to a previous post at first glance.

Do you have any proof?

Ideletedlted your post, I apologize, but you have already made yobjectionsions known in private.

"If?" You deleted my post period, that needs to be known publicly.

There is no need to whine about it biblically.

Indeed their is, why do you fear placing your actions into the light? Do you fear how your peers will judge your actions?

I suggest in the future you learn how to properly use the quote function if you don't want your posts being mistaken for quotes.

What are you talking about? You seem to be randomly deleting and changing my messages, and either you proof of your assertion or you do not.

[Norfolk And Chance]

Hold on a minute? A theist asking for proof?

LOL.

[Drich]

No, Drich, I simply stated that since you've granted me belief, your fairy tale witnesses and my actually being a fairy tale witness are on equal grounds. Which they are. Unless you don't actually believe me, and then I would ask you why. How would one go about testing fairy tales? On what grounds will you be able to dismiss The Tuatha De that would not dismiss your own?

Have I proven such a thing, you'll have to lay that out for me, your assertions are not sufficient (neither in this case, nor your claims of eye witnesses).

Again you go too far in you initial assumption and in your follow up response. You asked for belief. I granted you what you asked for in return I simply asked that you back your assertion.

You seem to be unfamiliar with this type of thinking. Where one explores for himself the in's and out's of another's line of thought. It's call approaching something unfamiliar with an open mind. With an open mind, all sorts of things are possible. Not to mention all sorts of new things can be learned. I know you generally like to close your mind off to all things new, or at least to things that you do not find suitable. So i will explain how it works.

When one approaches something new with an open mind one will have to subject himself to the unfamiliar. In this case I had to give you the benefit of the doubt so I could receive enough information to explore what you claimed. In this process you revealed your intentional deception for the sake of your ill conceived point.

Again all of this seems to stem from your lack of understanding of what general belief is and how it relates to faith coupled with tightly closed mind to fuel your endeavor.

Lol, absolutely not. Attention everyone! I deleted Drich's post. I only saw quote in there, and if there was anything substantial I delted, it was an accident.

Now, quit acting like there is a conspiracy against you. It's not as if I feel so threatened by your message that I feel the need to silence you. I don't give a shit what you say, personally.

Drich, there was nothing random about it. You are quoting huge walls of text when the guidelines clearly state that the preferred action is to quote only the portion to which you are replying. If you are going to give a brief reply, there is no need to quote an large post. That being said, FNM only did so after it was agreed upon by staff that your multiple posts of that nature should be fixed for readability issues. If there was anything deleted, it was certainly an accident or, as FNM said, it was erroneously placed within quote tags. If he were "out to get you," he would be stopped by the rest of us as soon as possible. It is certainly not the case and I don't appreciate your reaction. Be a big boy and start following the guidelines and these issues will not happen.

My assertion does not need to be substantiated, I am an eyewitness to those events. My claims are the substantiation. Of course, there is a great deal of well documented literature to this effect as well (guess I wasn't the only one there). Perhaps you hadn't heard of the "Gospel of Everyone else's Myths"? Well, now you have.

My mind is pretty open, I still don't like the taste of bullshit. That I don't like the taste of bullshit has very little to do with whether or not I have an open mind.

Intentional deception? When have I retracted my claim? I am an eyewitness, but you're still a sucker for granting belief to such a tale so easily, regardless of whether or not the fairy tale is accurate.

All of this stems from your inability to take anything further than a proclamation of faith. Including whether or not anything about myself had been proven.

Did you not just send me a PM telling me if I shut up and "stop playing conspiracy/martyr" you would try and find the deleted post, and re post it? How is this not trying to silence me? Do i need to post your PM to prove my point? Here is a suggestion, how about you simply to the job/obligation you accepted as a Mod on this web site, rather than abusing the authority when ever you see an opportunity to do so.

Not the intentional or accidental deletion of my post, but demanding my silence in your Last PM to me if I wanted what you deleted reposted, and then the arrogance of your last public post.

Your abuse of power in the position you have been entrusted with shows you to be a hypocrite and a disgrace to all moderators everywhere.

[Shell B]

Pffft. This is getting ridiculous. He wants you to stop whining because you're whining. He did not demand your silence, for pity's sake.

For my part of it, I'm just going to let you have your hissy fit. Sure, I could be helpful and advocate for the restoration of the post, but that is outside the scope of my duties and jumping through hoops for those of you who leap to conclusions and tar and feather staff members for mistakes is not on my agenda today. If anyone has a legitimate problem, I'll be off in my bat cave, randomly deleting posts and figuring out ways to alienate members with the rest of the staff.

FNM Did not delete a "huge wall of quotes." He deleted the body of my response to the OP.

You either telling me He can not be bothered with reading the posts he is deleting or is incapable of distinguishing question from content with in the frame work of a quote tag. Even if everything was with in the frame work of a quote tag your forums engine still separates (via lines and not blue and white boxes) question from comment.
If that was the case all he needed to do was delete the first [quote] box after the OP's name, and everything would have been made right.

How is it that a moderator does not understand this? or again is he simply not required to read what he is made to edit?
