Less than Super Ostrich Posted September 15, 2003 Author Share Posted September 15, 2003 Looks like a mod deleted it. that truly pisses me off. it may have been an off topic post, but some of us are like a family here. and when you do stuff like that it really hurts that. i think you're decision to delete it was really really bad form.

the white drew carey Posted September 15, 2003 Share Posted September 15, 2003 I understand your anger, but until the rules of the forum are altered to allow off topic threads like that, you should be fully aware that posting an O/T thread has the possibility of being locked/deleted at any moment. BTW- Congrats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fulcy Posted September 15, 2003 Share Posted September 15, 2003 First off, congrats on the new kid. Second, I was the one who 'ratted' on you - informing a mod of the off topic post. Even though we are all like a family around here, it doesn't mean we can go about cluttering up the boards with off topic posts - even if they are about a new kid, someone dying, or your car getting into an accident. Typically an off topic post will be left up for a day, and then locked or deleted, just for that reason - it is off topic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent ONE Posted September 15, 2003 Share Posted September 15, 2003 Good job on the kid. MW has too many members to have personal threads though. Kind of a bummer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy Focker Posted September 15, 2003 Share Posted September 15, 2003 I deleted the Music topic not this one but you should know by now any Off topic thread runs the risk of being closed or deleted. There is flaw in your logic. If some of those on the forums are like family I would think it would tell your 'family' through PM or Email instead the forums. Would you want your extended 'family' to accidently miss this news becauses it's maybe hidden between a thread about star trek and Valkyrie?

Agent ONE Posted September 15, 2003 Share Posted September 15, 2003 Or put a message in your sig at the bottom? Actually that is probably the best way to draw attention to something. Thats why I put the stuff that I do on my "off MW" hours down there! Hasta La Vista, DAVIS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JsARCLIGHT Posted September 15, 2003 Share Posted September 15, 2003 Or put a message in your sig at the bottom? I have always wanted a pic in my sig... but they are not allowed. I feel that everyone who knows me would agree that this pic at the bottom of all my posts would be a constant reminder of how beneficial my input is around here.
