(you said *@#$) What happened at the end of it? I was out getting Chinese food and it moved too fast for me anyway.

This is why I don't get attached to threads. If I consider myself smart, I should be smart enough to remember the points I wrote down again...

If a thread gets deleted by site management, I would hope that there would be an explaination given first.

Scott: If Hillary would do that, I'd vote for her.
Everyone else: I'm not torn up about that thread going away. It was pretty dang hurtful all around...

For the record, if someone ever decides that they've made a mistake in posting rude, hurtful remarks and wants to rectify the situation by removing them, it's possible to do so without deleting the remarks of others.
Simply edit the first post and remove everything. Then add "<snipped>" to the post and save it.
All the other posts can simply be deleted.

Scott, sometimes you crack me up. Thank you. I've been feeling down all day, and I don't know why.

But Pop is not the only one who deletes threads. I had a thread deleted, no warning, no explanation. It happened while I was sleeping and I woke to find emails from Hatrackers asking about it. I had no clue.

Sorry for the double post - but wow... I must have missed something.
See what happens when I have people over for dinner? I miss a thread I was actually interested in (apparently) spinning out of control. Then again - maybe I'm glad I missed it...

cmc, sometimes other administrators delete threads that they consider inappropriate. So no, quids is not saying anyone did anything wrong.

I was working hard to take back Het for all us breeders. It's pretty difficult to make headway against that sort of thing without threads being deleted.

As always, I'd like to voice my displeasure for whomever decided to delete everyone's posts. If it was the topic starter, then I think it was a reprehensible action.
If it was an admin, I would appreciate an explanation. Though I certainly understand if they don't feel the inclination or need to share it.

For the record, Porter, you've always struck me as kind of trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean, and reverent.

Sorry that I deleted the thread guys. Oh shoot. Well, cats out of the bag, Pop made me a moderator. I guess all I can say in my defense, in the immortal words of Homer Simpson: "It's my first day."

*bump* for General Sax, now that he's posting again, so he can either know how his deletion was received, or to give him the chance to let us know that I judged him too hastily.

Ah, a bob spock insisted that I do as I promised and delete my offensive posts, however after I did the first one the whole thread vanished... He did not tell me that would happen but I was repeatedly insulted in a series of posts by him just before I edited it for his benefit, trapped by my own promise. I am sure I am not the first he has attacked, it seemed very practiced, so I decided if he was common to the Hatrack Community I could live without it.
However there are innocuous topics of interest to me that I am sure will not violate his political views (felt like I was back in poly sci in college) so he can attack my impressions of Battle Star Galactica or my hopes for a lunar colony if he wants to try to beat me up, I am sure he will look more like the man he is in doing that then in pretending to be a champion for the Left.

I didn't read the thread so I don't know who "bob spock" is but if you go to edit a post it tells you that if you delete the first post in a thread, the whole thread will be deleted.

Who reads all the fine print on a every mouse click? I just usually get to the "This sight is intended to be viewed by adults...."

As I recall there were a large number of people who felt you were out of line because you do not spend hours in intimate contact with other women out of love for your wife, as if they had a right to judge or interfere with a man and his wife. It pained me almost as much to see you have to defend common sense from the assault of world as we wish it was as having to defend myself for feeling that the Boy Scouts and MAMBLA are incompatible.
Still, if my own wife did not post here under my name I would not have been back at all, I forgot my password...
