Why was Stoner's thread deleted?

[verb_to_trust]

My question to epilogue would be: when, if ever, would it be appropriate to use the word "slut" on this message board?

If one of the 5 Montana bros said they were a slut for someone in the group and then posted a bunch of heart emojis.

There were many reasons it was moved.

Serious query and I'm not specifically singling you out, but why make this kind of post without following up with the reasons? Obviously people noticed this thread is gone and it seems like people enjoyed the thread, so why be so cagey about what happened? Again, not singling you out. B and ruddo do it too, though they both have on occasion given some details on some incidents.

The thread wasn't deleted. Rest assured it lives on just not in public view. At first I just locked it. But then decided that much of content within wasn't in good taste. Some of it was super shitty and offensive. Rather than subject anyone else to that stuff, I moved the thread.

Hope that clears things up.

But then right afterwards there's this vaguery.

I'm sure there's a way to revisit without breaking board rules or you know being shitty.

What rules were broken? What is "being shitty"? Like someone else said, it feels like the mods are the arbiters of good taste on this board of grown-ups, so maybe the mods can give us a detailed list of what's "shitty"?:

Man, I try really hard not to engage with you, verb. For what should be obvious reasons. But what the fuck is "the 5 Montana bros"?

He’s referring to me, strat, snatcher, trag, and i guess bammer from that photo we took in Missoula

Idk I could just see the group in that pic from the Montana pearl jam show being able to playfully call each other sluts on RM and get away with it easily.

Many posts violated community standards. Misogyny and abusive language toward women is a violation of community standards. There were several posts that were worthy of a ban issue. I didn't ban anyone. I didn't even warn anyone in for those posts because, as you say, you're all supposed to be fucking adults.

Lol I was also puzzled by "the 5 Montana bros"

[E.H. Ruddock]

Not sure why i have to be dragged into this, but for whatever reason he likes to come at me randomly

[BurtReynolds]

The mod forum is probably a cesspool of racism and misogyny. God knows what else.

I thought it was like a drug and violence gang. And Montana was their last name

Ah. Well, the jokes on him because you, trag and snatcher all have serious issues with me. Bammer sucks and I would have banned him a long time ago if I was as power hungry and corrupt as they think I am.

Strat's great, though.

I didn't read the thread, but was there a complaint or something, or just your own judgement?

I don’t have an issue with you! I just don’t ask your opinion on new songs anymore!

No one flagged a post or issued a formal complaint to me.
