You too? I have gotten used to it by now. I do agree with what you state but it is likely not going to happen. I am surprised things haven’t gotten more restrictive on FT since IB bought it. It still works quite well. Every time I get deleted I say…”That’s it, I am going to Milepoint”…but never do:-)

@Oliver2002: LOL yeah because most of them are from Kokonutz 🙂

I will say EM&PR has worked out better than I thought, but if it was a true democracy, you people in glass houses (the mods) would let us throw stones at you. I find it very annoying that several mods rip up bloggers but are not willing to subject themselves to the same standard

@TBB – I don’t agree. I would rather see at most very light moderation to remove spam or cussing. I’ve had many posts removed for basically stupid reasons.

Places like FT and blogs are just very different animals. I think FT is better off with moderators. I just wish there was more consistency in the standards applied across all moderators. I developed an intense tick the first time a comment of mine was deleted by mia:-)

I am not going to repeat myself here.
Thank you for commenting and disagreeing with me.
I will let my readers decide about credibility issues.
If I misspelled your name, I am sorry. Let’s see you spelling my last name:-)

Justify all you want George, as you say it is your blog you do what you want. But you can not be a “champion” of your so called standards of comments & disclosures and then follow the reprehensible way of non-linking. You can not have it both ways as it tanks any tiny shred of credibility you may have. BTW, my friends know how to spell my name!

Lol, I think you can count the number of deleted posts in EM&PR on one hand.

Ha they both feel kind of North Korea. And expect the death penalty if you dare speak ill of a mod on FT.

Actually it really is rather ironic that FT is probably the largest censor of comments in our community

They only gave me $10k credit line, that is not fair! US Bank = unpredictability rules! Enjoy.

I should learn how this amazon stuff works one of these days;-)

Getting deleted by Oliver2002 still feels better than getting deleted by mia
