Did you mention the A word? I think they have a bot scan that reports all A word posts.

I've been noticing that AA gets through just fine most of the time, but negative posts with the A word in them tend to be scrubbed.
I'm testing this on the current Daily BTW.

Negativity's fine, if there's a constructive point to it. Just being negative to be negative gets old pretty fast.
I'm just hanging out, really.

Yeah it'd probably be construed as trolling or something by someone.

It shows that I like the designs, and didn't say anything negative about Anvil.
The heavy handed moderation and censorship is ridiculous around here right now. I'm not a troublemaker and you will never see a foul word in any of my posts, so this deleting posts, moderation, and censorship is a new experience for me. It's not an experience that I have enjoyed.
Honestly, no I can't explain that particular incident. I do know things have been a bit quirky lately (and I am not going to presume to speak for everyone with powers to move/remove/edit), and seriously, if you feel that statement needs reposting, by all means, go ahead!
I do know this thread is getting wildly off topic, and if you all want to discuss this tangent, we have a thread for that.
In the interest of housekeeping, everyone should be advised off topic posts will likely be moderated out of here going forward.
Thanks in advance for understanding.
I'm just hanging out, really.

Thanks!
Deleted post Repository? That idea doesn't suck. And I want to read it. I wager it's hilarious and horrifying all at once. Like a Game of Call of Cthulu in forum form...

Ok, fine, back to the Topic at hand:
Why don't Side Sale shirts have discussion threads like normal shirts? Not super annoying, but since sales data is now contained entirely in the Discussion thread it's making tracking sales data for side sales tough.
I for one would like to know if any of these sold better in a week than the Editor's picks did in the same 7 day period.

Last one. On June 16, 2006, you said you waded through 55 pages of Deleted posts. Assuming they accrue at a constant rate (though they probably increase linearly over time) and a standard page size of 40 posts per, that would be 3.5 spam posts per day, and the file should currently be 250 pages long.
