If you don't think so, consider this...

I recently got "edited" on a post elsewhere when I was speaking about the Prickly Pear Cactus. The word "prickly" was edited as if I was saying just the first part of that word.

Also had a thread deleted on yet another forum when referencing the old days with underage beer drinking and chasing wild women. Was said to not be in line with policy. Hogwash. I had seen some hellacious name calling with some real "bad" terms used. And nothing happened there.

They did say they hoped I was not offended. I hope they are not offended when they ask for the next donation and it is not forthcoming.[:(!][:(!]

    Ever think that the cactus thing was due to the autocensor? If a mod or admin edits your post, it'll say who edited it, and when it was edited at the bottom.

    Don't believe me?

    I like what the autocensor here does to the word when you put "salt" and "water" together.

    I guess i dont know how the other boards do it. this is the only message bord i'm on. I do think they let us get away with alot of crap on here. Only thing i wish they would do is let us trade. There has to be a way to let us trade and also let gb get its share aswell.

    crap i would even pay for a forum that allowed trading that way GB would get there share. lets say 1.00 a month or maybe just 20.00 a year. that would work also. Hell i would even be a mod on said forum to make sure stuff went smothly. We have to have some sort of trading on the forum side or the other site will domanate. even if it has to go through a auction. we have to allow trades.
