Radix, the topic was turning into a mess with people talking about Tacos and refering eachother as girl dogs. Not a healthy discussion and off the point even more so with this topic, if it was any other topic the entire topic would just have been locked, however to keep discussion open the posts were removed so that we can continue to talk about this subject in a normal adult way. If a post got deleted by mistake (3 pages in total were removed on the 2 subjects mentioned above) that you think offers a valid discussion point let me know and I will try and retrieve it for you.

Still, that does prove the point that TDC is often moderated in a pretty heavy handed manner. A few light hearted posts about Tacos is hardly even worth the effort of deleting.
I'm sure many people visit the forums for a place to hang out and have a laugh. A fair amount of members aren't even adults yet so expecting an adult discussion is somewhat optimistic.

"I'm sure many people visit the forums for a place to hang out and have a laugh."
Maybe so, but that can be done in other threads, like the L4D one which keeps getting bumped every other day by the same three or four people.
This isn't a thread to be "having a laugh" in  Jeesh, the ammount of times you've accused me of trolling and now you're supporting misplaced taco-topic nonsense, in this thread of all threads

Not a few light-hearted posts. At any rate, this could be considered a newpost of sorts, and some sites don't even let you post on news threads. People complain about threads being highjacked, and then they complain about having highjacked threads being clipped. Pick one. 
Though I would say that the taco subject did appear because members wanted to avoid more argument, which is a noble effort. We've discussed this almost to death I think.

well maybe an admin could just say "well lets get back on topic now people" instead of deleating everything? this is just confusing coz am sure I posted things on topic and not about tacos (which is just a cecil thing I asked him that)

i admit the topic was already derailed when i threw tacos into the mix but i find it hard to beleive there was 3 pages. there were only about 3-5 posts with tacos in it, hardly a discussion. id be willing to bet half of those comments before it had at least partly to do with the topic.

Well, sure you can complain about everything you don't like to the point where you overstep the mark or you can just try to enjoy your hobby. I know which one I would prefer.
It's like going on a family picnic and having everyone argue over who ate the most sandwiches, then before anything is actually settled your parents force you all to go home. It ruins all the fun.
personally I like TDC when it's not all srs bsn.

No. My comment had nothing to do with tacos and was removed, but I am not going to try to justify my remarks to support a kind of opt-out -- scattergun censorship.

I think its better we close this off, new rules were added and flava is going to code a system so other admins can see who deleted what and also get the abbility to put posts and topics back that were removed, I think that should resolve lots of discussion
