Adam told me that if an argument takes a topic off course, instead of closing the topic, I should just delete the argument. That time when I was arguing with Hector, he said that instead of arguing, I should just delete the posts that concerned the argument.

That time when I was arguing with Hector, he said that instead of arguing, I should just delete the posts that concerned the argument. I love how I'n name dropped all the time Josh. Anyway, I thought we were supposed to do that only if we thought the bad posts would lead to more bad replies. Otherwise, it's not supposed to be done. But Rob, I have noticed you've been making some really unnecessary posts lately. I was the one who deleted your post in the Video Chart thread, what was the point of even making that one? It wasn't really nice IMO. Any other post you're concerned about, I don't know. That was the only one of yours I deleted. |

I love how I'n name dropped all the time Josh. Where else is my backup that I'm allowed? You said that's what we should do. You said it right on the boards. Do you expect me to tell Rob that I'm pulling rules out of my ass? If you don't like the rule being created by you, don't create the rule. ...and the only posts I deleted of Rob's were in response to Hector's remarks in the Madonna topics. The whole argument was not necessary and just took those topics off course. If I was going to delete any instigation, I had to delete the replies in response to that instigation. |

This is not a response to Adam, but a general statement. I know if I just say "This is the rule," someone is going to ask me why I came up with such a stupid rule and that I'm on a power trip. People don't realize that I'm following rules set by whatever administrator.

Why did you delete that Adam?  This is Adam... Due to popular demand, I'll write my deleted post back... so Josh and Rob don't look like they're babbling in the air. First off, I wasn't the one who created the rule... I just follow it. Second, all I meant is everytime someone makes a complaint, I see my name popping up in your response. I'm sure I would have came in here and backed you up, but really don't put my name in as a reason everytime someone complains to you about something. If you want to reply to this, send me a PM. |

Those are very very small and insignificant arguments. They're nothing. Please don't delete anymore of my posts, it's very annoying. Thx

Why did you delete that Adam? Because it's not of a benefit to the boards. I sent you a PM.... actually it's a copy and paste of the post I just made and deleted. |

If you don't want anymore of your posts deleted, stop making posts that you KNOW you're making ONLY because you have fun arguing with whatever other poster. That's what's annoying to many people. |

Thx ...and honestly Rob, the comments you made were obviously to start Hector off. The moderators are not stupid. Saying that some remixer said that Madonna's "Hollywood" sucks is not something that needs to be posted in every topic about her. Then you proceeded to call Hector weird and you know how Hector reacts. I really think if it's that "petty," you can keep it off the boards. Because the instigating is what's annoying Rob. I really don't have a problem with you being irritated because I've been irritated by Hector too, but maybe be the mature one in the situation and leave it alone. |

Exactly. Purposely steering topics off course is annoying and unnecessary. I think you're the only one who enjoys watching it, so take it to the PM if it's that necessary. |

What about you posting that Eminem said Britney sucks though? Anyways, I don't really care. I'll take your advice.. just try not to delete my posts anymore |

Well for everyone who sees this, I'll answer the original question and then I'm locking this.
We delete posts that we think are only meant to cause arguments with other posters. If a post is made that is off topic and a blatant stab at a specific poster, rather than letting the whole thread go off-topic to the point of being locked, we'll delete the few bad posts. I'd think you all would be happy about this, since many of you have complained that we lock topics too much. Well, this helps us keep more topics open... even though there have only been 2 or so cases ever that I've had to delete specific posts.
