This board has got real bad lately. I've had a few really milqetoast comments get removed with warnings of a ban.

Its still up, it just got anchored
Ah..I didn't remember the title 'cause it wasn't too interesting and you can't search for only one letter. My search term brought me to that error page still.

Admins/Mods/ChiQen probably made search results for "Q" come up empty
Edit: I think search tool doesn't look at anchored subjects, kind of like libtards looking for election fraud.

There is a reason that the First Amendment is first. Words are the vessels of ideas, and ideas are the basis for inspiration, motivation and action. The kind of Freedom of the which we have long enjoyed on this LSU Forum and in our Nation as well, is rare in the historical record. It's like having a bullhorn that can reach out across the whole land. Most societies have either imposed limitations of free speech via community-accepted social stigma or collective ('government'/ruling power in whatever form) law.
I am surprised that the Mods have held out this long given that LSU (State Entity) has long ago become 'woke' in its policy and with this little inflammatory nook being very toxic in its anti-woke dialogue. At the top of our Federal Government, this Forum is most surely considered 'Insurrectionist'/Seditionist' and is likely like 'fly bait' for those whose government job is to monitor and record personal adversarial data for future strategic action.
Bottom line is that if one mouths off against the Government, it is just a matter of time before problematic Posters are sought out and given a choice of shut up or pay the price as that is SOP for all Governments which act in order to exist as status quo.
I guess the loudmouths/patriots here had best make reservations at Truth Social for their last hurray. I just don't see how the Mods continue to endure given what will be extreme and mounting pressure due to likely and serious violence and pain as the ante is upped. JMO.
At least we lived and experienced real Freedom, thanks to the real and painful sacrifices of them before us. Pray for vision, mercy and courage. The fire is heating up.

“ Here are some of the main reasons for anchored threads:
1. The subject of the thread is too short and not descriptive enough. We often see users just put one word or sometimes two words. Even 3-4 words can be too short. These are immediately anchored. Again, be descriptive. The subject should contain the point of your thread.
2. The subject of the thread is cut off. This is a problem that has been popping up a lot lately. A user will post a subject such as:
"The key to winning the game is..."
or
"I am about to get torn to shreds but I think that"
For whatever reasons, the user cut the subject off and is requiring that the reader click on the thread to find out what the point of the thread is. We would rather the main idea of the thread to be inside the subject.
3. THE SUBJECT OR POST IS IN ALL CAPS. These are immediately anchored. All caps are hard to read and comes across as shouting.
4. There is already a thread on the info that you are posting. This is self-explanatory. We don't need 10 threads on the board announcing what Robert Smith just said about LSU. We usually keep the thread with the best subject, and anchor/delete the repeat threads.
5. The topic has been beaten to death. Sometimes, topics have run their course and need to just fade away.
6. A thread has gone off topic. If the replies inside a thread have nothing to do with the main idea in the subject, we often anchor.
Exception to these rules: Good morning threads, Lunch Threads, Late Night Snack Threads and approved IM thread.”

This is my biggest disappointment from TD since I joined ten years ago. I remember when religion threads would get whacked by the PT mods, but those were the only ones.
This anchoring threads about a certain lettered anon is ridiculous and didn't happen until the media started paying attention to that subject.
Did we ever get a straight answer from the mods?
