I just had a talk again with Edward. I told him I would delete all messages that said POS, because Piece of Shit is profanity. His reply was; And you will be removed from the moderator position.
Ok, I'm gonna delete every message with "POS" in it. Because POS means "Piece of Shit", and that is obscenity, and a clear TOS violation.
And you will be removed from the moderator position.
Why? Is it allowed to say Shit on iHub?
Yes. The standard here is PG-13 guidelines under which "shit" is not considered profanity.
I thought "shit" was vulgarity...
Are lies allowed? Why do you let this guy destroy our board? We had such a good place here to discuss the company. That's all gone now... Such a shame...
We do not "allow" anything. We provide a forum for discussion and enforce the rules for the site.
Board Moderators and Site Admins do not remove posts based on what we believe to be the veracity (truthfulness) of user posted content. Messages should only be removed if they violate these rules.
"Truth" is a very subjective term and all Members are welcome and encouraged to offer their opinions whether positive, neutral or negative. Each reader then has both the right and obligation to decide for themselves if they feel a post is accurate and its author credible.
As a participant on the board, your recourse is the same as any other Member; to debate the information contained in the post without attacking the author, or to ignore it. Talk about the company, not the author of the posts.
Ok, but the rules state;
Posting excessively on one or more message board(s). The boards are for discussion not a pulpit for individual Users. If you feel someone is abusing their posting privilege in this manner, please discuss this with a Site Admin without deleting any posts that don't otherwise violate the TOS. Admin will review posting history and may, at their discretion, impose posting restrictions if deemed to be warranted.
He is completely disrupting our board. I wish he would just go away... Because of him, many have left already, and even cancelled their iHub subscription because of the way iHub is handling this situation. Like I said, it's sad that one individual can destroy what was maybe the best board on iHub...
No reply on that last message...
I would suggest using the word "Shit" as much as possible now!
