MNHQ Deletion Policy

935 replies

Earlier today the Trans Park Run thread was deleted in its entirety because SOME posts alleging cheating were deemed to be 'not in the spirit' of MN.

We have a thread about that running.

I have just been deleted on the Heather Peto thread for posting this:

"Bless..."

A post intended to be mildly dismissive.

That was deleted for breaking talk guidelines.

Give me a fucking break MNHQ.

"Bless..." gets a deletion!??!?!

TRA really have got you on a short chain, haven't they?

And 'Heather' was illegible for the Jo Cox thingy because he, as Warren, already had had a career in politics.

HISTORICAL FACT.

(If I say that Miranda Yardley has also said as much, does that make a difference? Given that this is a 'transsexual' speaking, and therefore his (oops - but MY is happy to be referred to as he, so whatcha gonna do about that bit of 'misgendering'??) words as such hold greater weight and respect than mine, those of a mere uterus-bearer.

That deletion makes no sense at all Confused. Exactly what spirit was it not in? Must be a different spirit to the one that presides over AIBU and the rest Talk.

I once got deleted for posting 'No'. I queried it the next day and it was a mistake apparently. Two different mods.

I think deleting mild sarcasm is going to make for a very dull talky website indeed.

At the moment it's not clear if we can utter "hello" without someone getting trigger happy.

BarrackerBarmer · 30/04/2018 17:08

I suspect that we are perhaps witnessing some variability in the trigger-happy propensity of individual moderators.

Combined with certain individuals with a vested interest in shutting down particular threads and discussions, who enjoy pressing the report button.

Bless.

Please mn we value free speech. There is nowhere else where you can utter the basic truth: transwomen are men

AngryAttackKittens · 30/04/2018 17:06

OK this is just silly. Please explain what people are allowed to say in detail, @MNHQ, because if "Bless" breaks the guidelines then the guidelines may be a bit silly.

The moderation certainly does seem different to day from what I have seen. I'm hoping it's moderator inconsistency rather than a policy change.
