So we can have 100 threads about Big Steve being gay as long as they each have a slightly different take on it

***THIS THREAD HAS BEEN LOCKED***

I gotta say, sounds very lame.

I don't think this was what people wanted when they wanted moderators.

I find this very funny. What did people expect when they asked for mods? I was against any mods beyond what mat was already doing, but I'm actually very pleased so far. Better than I expected.

1) REPEAT POSTS
2) advertisements -banned
3) threads about other posters (i.e. XXXXX is a [censored] face thread)

I know of at least one thread about thread deletion policy that was deleted (at a time when no other threads on the topic were on the front page). That deletion did not fit the stated policy listed above.

That criteria is what Dynasty feels comfortable with; it's not mine. Right now, threads which are centered around the degradation of women are coming down. I think it makes us, Two Plus Two, look bad. A lot gets by me, which is why the deletions seem inconsistent. Bottom line: if I find a thread where the posts are predominantly bigoted or sexist, I'll most likely delete. In the future, once all the server issues are figured out, I'll want oot split even further. At that point we can go back to including a virtually unmoderated oot forum.

This is the explantion I was hoping for. Hopefully this takes place sooner than later.

I kind of worry about this. One great thing about 00t is that there's so much good stuff here. I don't necessarily want to have to look in 8 different forums for hot chick threads, sports, quitting smoking, cars, or whatever. It seems like 00t serves its purpose fine w/o that.

I don't post much about sports here because it gets buried so fast by "what's the best porn?" and similar garbage. If you want to generate any interest in a thread here, it has to have a title like "Lindsay Lohan and other pigs", which is good enough to get it deleted even if the responses are all tasteful and well thought out. No, OOT need a forum dedicated to threads that might deeply offend a lot of posters on this site. As it is now, all they have to do is whine about offensive posts and the thread gets sent to 2+2's equivalent of Guantanamo Bay. The sickos need a safe haven here.
