    Filter Test Thread

    Have you seen the ASHRAE Filter Test thread in the General Wood Forum? It's been carved away like a Thanksgiving Turkey by our Super Moderator.
    So as I read it, any deviation from the OP and the post will be deleted. Is this now the method of operation for all threads or only the ones that xxxxx you off.
    Let's not forget that most of us are adults and expect to be treated like one.
    Maybe a fishing trip is needed to let things cool off a bit.

    Yup, I've seen it, I've read it, and I support what John Bailey, Ken, Keith, and others have stated in the thread. Unfortunately, forum moderation provides both a positive environment as well as one that is displeasing to others on the site. I do my best to be fair, honest, and upfront on any thread I remove. I also do my best to notify the thread "owner" why the thread was removed. But then, that's just me....cut from old cloth.
    Thanks & Happy Wood Chips,

    Doug, I fixed the ones I could. Be careful, your post will be deleted because it deviates from the OP.

    Figuring out what constitutes an off-topic post in the Off Topic Forum is way too metaphysical for me.
    Yoga class makes me feel like a total stud, mostly because I'm about as flexible as a 2x4.
    "Design"? Possibly. "Intelligent"? Sure doesn't look like it from this angle.
    We used to be hunter gatherers. Now we're shopper borrowers.
    The three most important words in the English language: "Front Towards Enemy".
    The world makes a lot more sense when you remember that Butthead was the smart one.
    You can never be too rich, too thin, or have too much ammo.

    If it discusses woodworking then it's off topic.

    Of course, if I mention anything about that thread, or the inconcisten...oops. Almost finished that word.

    Yes, the perhaps the thread on the ASHRAE Filter Test is now dead. Perhaps died an unnatural and untimely death due to the editing and warnings.

    If I comment on Keith's quote as applies to evidently the Filter Test thread as brough into this benign post in the Off-Topic forum by the Super Moderator, in all likelihood your thread will be expunged as well, Richard.

    But by Ken's pointing to that warning, I suspect it means discussing the Filter Test thread may carry consequences.

    Take care, Mike

  11. Just a question, if you guys know who the 2% are, why not just ban them?

    If you figure that a very small handful of "Trouble Makers" or "Cry Babies" are the source of all of this discord, why not just revoke their membership?

    After all, it is your sandbox, you write the music, why not just tell them if they keep on with this 2% crap they will be banned?

    Just curious is all (hoping I'm not considered a 2% er)

    Gee, Stu--trying to get me tossed? I suspect I am on that list. But I don't think you are part of the 2% figure, Stu.

    I wonder how the dance was? I wasn't invited, and it's been a while since I've gone to a dance [grade school I think] so I feel a little left out.

    Take care, Mike

    Those who actually act like adults are treated as such.

    When the chronic complainers finally take a nap maybe I can actually get some fishing time in.

    That's exactly what Keith is trying to tell them. They don't listen to that either.

    Sorry. No disrespect intended. I just couldn't resist the irony on a thread about having posts deleted just because someone didn't like what you said.
