Hi Doug, I see you have gotten on the wrong side of one of our moderators. I haven't had a chance to review your deletions. Did you read my earlier post that for time time being I cannot spend as much time on H2O as I'd like?
I see many complaints but no links to your deleted posts. Further, you need to go back to the original post that discussed a subject in a manner you feel was not violating the FPP. In other words, don't give me the links to posts where you challenge the moderator for their actions. It's the core posts, the ones that started each removal, that I want to see.
You provide the links to the core posts where you innocently posted something that you're convinced is within out FPP, and I'll look at them and comment. Don't provide links to your followup posts to moderators where you argued against their actions. These are off-topic.
I know someone will fault me for trying to reason here, but think about it Doug. If for every moderator removal it generates a dozen postings in protest, the board could self-destruct. Each thread causes the board to grow by 3,000 bytes approximately. If you're sincere in wanting to get your message to others whatever that may be, you're going to drive everyone away if you continue generating posts in protest to every deletion.
I'm tired and here's the repetition: I need the links to the original posts that you feel were part of a discussion, and got "picked on" by a moderator. I want to examine these to see about your claim.
Believe it or not, contrary to some claims, I'm part of an effort primarily based in Australia in hosting an open forum for both Jehovah's Witnesses and "other interested ones." Obviously, you're one the latter group and your interests in Jehovah's Witnesses are clear. If your posts are within our FPP then they stay. It's that simple. But know this, I cannot be everywhere at once! There are hundreds of posts per day and I hardly have time to read but a few. Let's be reasonable and try to examine the problem. I'll be looking at those links you give me in the next few days.
