Why was my thread deleted???

[cb7dazz]

So I just posted a thread about a bad seller on here and it was immidiately deleted. If it violates some type of rule then a explanation would be appreciated. I don't see the point of deleting a thread without telling me why, how are people going to learn what they did wrong. And yes I searched and found nothing.

nm, i found it

I'd also like to jump on this.
I posted a thread of mods I thought was funny. Got 2 comments then it was deleted.

Please Respect each other!! That broad statement alone covers a whole lot... and it is the single most important rule there is!!
No direct attacks (flaming) on a person, their car, or what they say. If you have a problem with someone, speak to a moderator and we will remove that problem if we see fit. Any attacks or disrespectful acts will result in YOU being removed.
This is a car forum. Everything else is extra, and is not needed. If something non-car-related is causing stress to even ONE member, it's gone. End of story.




First rule in the rules section

The explainations are written in a rather large section located at the top of this forum.
It even happens to be labeled "CB7tuner.com Rules" surprisingly.

You clearly didn't read them, and you missed the statement that 90accords quoted for you.

This:

No direct attacks (flaming) on a person, their car, or what they say. If you have a problem with someone, speak to a moderator and we will remove that problem if we see fit. Any attacks or disrespectful acts will result in YOU being removed.

Has now given reason for a 7 day ban for you.

Had you left the deleted thread alone and perhaps PM'd a Mod (like the post says to) this wouldn't even be in question.
Either way you broke the rules, and if there is a member that has genuinely scammed someone then you need to speak to a moderator to have the problem sorted.

Simply making a thread about that person will do nothing, other that turn all the members on that person in question.

If you wish to discuss this further please PM me or any other Mod.

Guess it must have been deleted for an A=I? reason . .

Aha! So you know what I'm talking about.

What are your opinions regarding Dane Cook? Louis CK?

Yes

What are your opinions regarding Dane Cook? Louis CK?

Why?

[GeoffM]

Yes



Why?

Because you're judging the hilarity of my post when you posted that. (You deleted your other post, why?)

[deevergote]

Because I told him to.
This stops. Now.

[ibr_adam09]

I was banned for this. Hope you get banned as well

So the staff does do things regarding the classifies or not? Cause this is what it says under the traditional classified section

Endorsed means - Declare one's public recommendation or support of.

Just because we don't support or recommend it, doesn't mean that everything that happens there is disregarded.



Especially when:
It transfers into other areas of this forum (Any other sections, including the Off Topic Section) and then other members get involved.

It slanders/flames/attacks another member of the forum.

The thread about the problem in question, creates such attention that it turns into a 4 page thread.

A staff member is not going to mediate a sale. However, contacting a moderator about someone's poor business practice isn't going to get you banned. Making a thread like this is. If I become aware of a member that is repeatedly scamming people, I WILL get involved. I won't attempt to decide who's wrong or right, but if 3 people come to me with the same complaint, that offending member will most likely get banned (and then those people will never see their parts/money... so coming to a staff member should be a last resort.)
