Thread confusion

edited August 2012 in PvP Gameplay
I'm completely at a loss...

I had a thread, about fed vs kdf escotrs.... that suddenly disappeared...

Then I made a thread, asking if anyone knew what happened to the other thread... this one ALSO disappeared...

Am I loosing it? Is this all in my head? Did I imagine it all? Is there a singularity somewhere in the forum?

Can anyone confirm having seen these threads? Or know any reason why they have disappeared?

    I guess you have hurt someones feelings and it got removed. The clatch of freedom of expression vs. the internet censorship. :P

    maybe... but why wipe the whole thread, and all trace of it? not just wipe the offending post and close it, as is custom?

    It's all very confusing... I had questions out there, that may, or may not have been ansvered... I don't know, as the thread is gone. Shouldn't the thread starter at least be informed? :/

    Hence why I called it censorship and not forum moderation :P Hey take it from the easier side, you didn't get any infraction points or forum ban :o

    That's what confused me -- usually if things get ugly, posts get edited and we get told to play nice, but the thread mostly stays intact.

    Why not just start a new thread of the original thread that disappeared? Surely that wont get removed. I think off topic threads do get deleted or moved elsewhere.

    Also if any user has been banned and there is discussion about it, this may also be reason to remove the thread from plain sight. Reasons are usually for player privacy. There is probably something about it in the Terms of Use or Privacy Agreements.

    But if the other 2nd post was deleted because the same thing since the previous thread started up again, then the mod may of just did some cleaning duty~ But I was not here after I posted a nice quote, I wish i could remember what it was.

    In the second thread I asked for everyone who posted in the first thread to help recreate what had been lost... But yeah, that thread also went missing. It's all very strange.

    I for one welcome our new overlords. having Fedscorts with 5 tac consoles and givng more sci to Klings is perfectly in line with canon and gameplay balance.

    I hope that the infinite wisdom of the great maker will one day come around to remove those awful asymetric 7 weapon slots on them to. It is the number of evil, 4 would be enough.

    If we want to keep it trek canon, there should be one sciship, one cruiser, and one escort running permanent RSP and Ablative armor, and hence be indestructible! :D

    thank god, the thread is going to hit a space time anomaly before Gecko gets any new ideas about how to simplify the balance sheet and make it excel compatible again.

    Something tells me that perhaps some rules got broken and instead of closing the thread they deleted it...

    Because I know what thread you were refering to and I don't see it either.. Even did a search for your user name and no thread exists. :(

    You may be thinking of community representative Stormshade? He was not the best, but his Successor, Wishstone, was the worst evar!

    Yes Wishstone, damn...that one was like some middleages inquisitor.

    Nah I'm thinking of Alecto. Always got the impression he'd sat on something uncomfortable. Who was Wishstone?

    Lol... Wishstone? She was the cryptic community boss... The one that basically banned all active pvp'ers, and anyone that had an opinion that Stahl might disagree with, from the forum at one point. She delivered more bans in one week than the other community representatives have dealt in a year!

    But this doesn't make sense... The topic of the thread was not in violation of any rules afaik. The discussion was hot, but no hotter than other threads in this section. Trolling was at baseline for the pvp section. Maybe someone made a seriously bad post at the end, and they closed the whole circus... but that's just wrong!

    If they don't tell us what we did wrong, we're doomed to repeat it in the future. :(

    Agree, when the ban hammer lands on some, there is no reason to close a very useful thread, more than that, delete it. Whoever has done that, has no maturity and abused the powers they were given. I agree with some amount of censorship, for the sake of keeping a clean language, but going to nuke a whole thread is just blatantly stupid.

    Whoever said to recreate the conversation from that thread, that is a nonsense, there were 20+ pages in that thread, mostly expressing an agreement in lack of fed vs kdf escort balance and some classic bop nerf cry babies. But there were some good points there expressed by some valuable members of Pvp community, points that shouldn't have been nuked. And all in all without any explanation. I wonder who's that TRIBBLE that closed the thread like that... At least a reason, or we get trained into accepting everything is thrown at us???
