Just nice to see the table go to a good home where it will be continued to be used for "eating" purposes. How are you going to break the news to your unbalanced washing machine MJ?

Is that a threat or a promise, sweet cheeks?

It's not prostitution if you tape it and pay for her 'acting' skills.

Glad you hear you guys had a good time. Can we plan to do this again next year? Can't wait to see the pictures.

I'm not butthurt. Just looking for an explanation. Chill. I'm not getting riled up here...but, sounds like someone else might be getting a little butthurt. I didn't start this thread, but I think the posts I make are relevant to it. And while we're discussing policy I'm trying to determine where it stands. The Admins and Mods have every right to play judge/jury/executioner, but the goal is not to abuse that power and I'm not saying Carie (or Ben, or...) did that. I undertand it was at your request to move the thread out of public view. I get that too. What I don't understand is why they should honor that request if no one had broken any rules? I'm completely guilty of saying out of line things, but I think if I post them on the internet then I'm stuck with the consequence of letting my emotions or un-politically correct opinions get the best of me. And, the goal of leaving it up publicly is to remind myself and everyone else that we all have weak moments - and we need to do our best to control ourselves to keep those moments from becoming a pattern of behavior. After these moments are out in the public wilds of the internet, the best you can do is issue an apology and hope everyone forgets about it in a few weeks - which most likely would've happened because most people here have the attention span of mice on crack, or at the very least until the next persons' drama bubbles to the surface. It is my opinion - and only my opinion - that your request was an overreaction. The mods then honored your request, but should they have? Or, should you have taken your lumps (ie. good natured ribbing) and let the thread die a natural death? And that's why I was asking what the justification was for removing the thread - just so I can better understand the policies on this site. I don't have to agree with the policy, but will have to live with it if I want to participate in the benevolent dictatorship that is ORDN. If I can ask a moderator to remove a thread at my behest, then I want to know. If I say something that I think may be inappropriate and want it redacted from ORDN, I want to know that I won't be treated any differently. And if I can't get it redacted, then there's always this thread to find discussing these policies. The admins/mods do their best at balancing their personal bias for people of the site versus their duty to be unbiased - it's a tough job, like Casper said, there's a bunch of behind the scenes stuff we never see. I respect that, I just want documented clarification just in case any issues arise again in the future.

Body shot?

I completely understand moving it - closing and removing it is what my inquiry was about. It was only closed/removed at Lance's request - NOT at the decision an admin or mod made, correct?

Not to be a stickler for technicalities, but I think it stemmed from this thread, where you were the OP. http://www.ohio-riders.com/showthread.php?t=35455 Lance's post didn't happen until 3 or 4 posts in...when he interjected that sex in the cold was better. Granted, I think he learned his lesson about 'staying out the kitchen if you can't stand the heat' but I didn't think things got out of hand until Ninjachk started hacking that thread up. At that point it wasn't even about the content anymore - it was about principle. Btw, what constitutes "out of hand"? Assuming Lance never asked for it to be moved - how long would that thread have continued?

Holy shit alab32... it's like R Kelly's wet dream right there.

I'm officially bowing out... it's not the cold, or the rain, or the fact that my girl is a sissy. It's the combination of all 3.

Yea, I just logged on, big whoop, wanna fight about it?

From one craphole town to more of a craphole town. Say hi to all the kiddies up there.

Biggest wigger I know.

Doesn't matter what you are - you're a woman. Know your role. J/k

I thought 'black' is the politically correct term? Not all of them are from Africa, mon.

I don't know if I'd have the time to moderate all but two threads...

Por que does this policy exist? From an admin standpoint, enlighten me as to why potential mod selection should be secret? (Seriously, I'm almost to the point where I might need a mod on my forum - I was just going to put it to a vote)

If by "a piece of work" you mean "my hero" - then I agree.

Wait a minute... you said that it was a deer that you hit.

Is she? I'm 6' - you may be right though.

Congrats SchmuckGirl, I think you've officially been relieved of any future obligations to moderate the site. FWIW, I still think highly of you.

Hey, McLovin --- STFU and get to the back of the bus. You know I'm just playing.

Meh, response time doesn't matter if you're dead. Plus it saves you from having that huge medical bill at the end for 'life-saving treatment'.

I'd wholly approve of this especially if serpentracer is Asian. Half Black / Half Asian girls..... NOM! NOM! NOM!
