The last debate thread got anchored.
This One
Anyone know why? It was soccer related and was providing valuable discourse on an important issue to the board.

ETA: At least it didn't get whacked.

Do we have no rights to dispute what is really a legitimate issue with this forum?

I tried to keep it civil and on topic but I guess it is not enough.

That's how most boards work. If a forum is little used, a clique forms. Once that happens, admins tend to give mod to the most respected/least retarded member of the clique and then forget the board exists.

Except admins still troll this board for somewhat off topic posts and sometimes whack them. I'm not sure if this happens in other small boards on TD because I honestly don't bother visiting anything but the SB (and occasionally the OT when I'm bored, but I rarely post).

I meant forums other than TD. I've been a denizen of the internets for quite a while

Well that explains a lot and isn't surprising. Why can't we have a decent admin for this board that is one of us? LA Tiger is the guy for the PoliBoard.

That is just sad. Just think about how boring your life is if you lurk on a message board that has nothing to do with your interests and police it in your spare time.

Trolls gonna troll. That's why. The faceless admin is just doing it to prove a point that we soccer fans fail to see.

I'm surprised mods frequent these quarters.

They don't....they are hit and run. I've seen the "IM" threads go for weeks with nothing and then for a few days, they come in and whack threads. I just think that the mod of this board should be one of our posters. If you aren't part of this community, then you have no idea the "tone" of this board.
