Anyone had posts deleted on m.net?
 
I was looking through my old pm's on there and found this:

"FYI, your "Sand in your vagina" comment has been deleted from your thread in California. Inflammatory comments such as that are not permitted here on Miata.net Forum. Please take a moment to review the Forum Rules that you agreed to when you joined the forum.":nono:

Lol, they take everything so seriously there, some guy was getting on my ass about a post where I typed break instead of brake and I asked him if he had sand in his vagina. :dunno:Just an honest question.

Anyone else have experiences like this?

magnamx-5 09-05-2007 08:21 PM

nope i fly under there radar. I got special ops posting skils like that. I go on there and call members tools idiots, morons etc. And Gord seems to ignore me :D

I once had a post deleted because they said mine was "one too many" positive comments about Zaino. This was about 4 years ago during the whole Zaino zealot thing.

UMM the walker will fold up and slide behind the seat, but you have to watch out the pin the wheels are on will catch and tear the shit out of your seat covering. First hand experience here

I've not had an entire post deleted to my knowledge, but I have had moderators edit my posts several times.

I hope I'm a cooler moderator than they are.

Arkmage 09-05-2007 11:36 PM

I don't post over there anymore unless I feel the thread is dumb enough to risk being banned for my response.

coastertrav 09-06-2007 02:08 AM

yes, I linked to a photoshoot I did with a 'Busa and a SRT-4, someone called the Srt-4 slow, I posted list of mods, it was still called slow, I posted a video of it beating a modded gixxer 600 on the street, BAM banned for 7 days for posting a link to a street racing video and the thread was deleated.

firedog25 09-06-2007 02:29 AM

M.net is way overbearing on the modding. They do, indeed, have sandy vaginas about some seriously stupid shit.

akaryrye 09-06-2007 03:04 AM

I think the mods are told how they need to edit the forum by someone higher up, gary of course. The goal in the boss'es mind is the bottom line, like any other business, so any slamming of sponser, general foul language, and posting material that could be construed as illegal is very frowned upon. Gary wouldnt like to loose a sponser, even if they suck and have too high prices.

drewbroo 09-06-2007 07:19 AM

I got banned a year ago when I insulted the cool breeze scoop, and called everyone with one a ricer....

Then I joined again a week later under my current name.

Braineack 09-06-2007 08:14 AM

they constantly delete my posts offering free help/parts to the local guys in our huge thread.

Mymiataflys 09-06-2007 08:45 AM

Try saying anything negative about anything a moderator posts on here and see how quick you get banned. now counting, 1 , 2, .....

magnamx-5 09-06-2007 08:48 AM

Realy hmm you guys need to learn how to fly under there radar better. i offer help parts etc all the time but i am not a former sponsor either. that might be some of there beef with you scot. If i where you i would subvert them every chance i got though. :D

and it's typically the douchebags who write things like this, hence bannage.

I just don't bother posting there. To many people without a clue. The garage and archives can be usefull though.

Loki047 09-06-2007 06:45 PM

I just deleted fruit pebbles first post, literally said "my first post" in this thread...

sorta ironic.. dont you think? (cmon someone take it)

Philip 09-06-2007 06:48 PM

fuck your inflammatory comments NGA

BEGITechRep 09-07-2007 11:51 AM

Posts there are primarily deleted or modified to keep the signal-to-noise ratio high. Too often a thread would degenerate into a pissing contest and that made it difficult to find the info you need. I'd rather read five posts in one thread providing me the specific troubleshooting info versus reading 55 posts all saying, "You suck!". It's entertaining, true, but time-consuming.

FWIW,
Barry

magnamx-5 09-07-2007 12:24 PM

And yet we do that here and it works :p

TheShocker 09-07-2007 12:50 PM

I have noticed they are pretty ---- over there. (This is only my first post here because I just got my account to work properly. I have been trolling for a while now.)

Info? I didn't know actual knowledge was passed around on that medium. Mostly it seems like "search" is about the only knowlege passed.

Trent 09-08-2007 12:21 AM

I got a threatening PM and a deleted post for posting a quote from the movie Tommy Boy in an offtopic thread.

Philip it's more like "dooooooooooo aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa seeeeeaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrccccccchhhhhhh".

miataspeed1point6 09-08-2007 04:35 PM

They deleted a post where I mentioned my car was like a "pissed off blue M&M". They said pissed off is not acceptable. Yet I have come across a few 4 letter words on more than one occasion.

I only search the garage section, the forums are lame.

you gotta post more detail than just that.Let people know that they plan to sell it for retail.

Ben 09-08-2007 08:28 PM

oh yeah, how do you know what they plan to do with the diff?

spike 09-08-2007 08:37 PM

^I highly doubt they will sell the diff for what they pay for it.

There's a good chance they will sell it for what the going rate for a torsen costs .
