First OUG you have every right to think as you wish, but have you thought it right through.
Deletions are few three I think in 2 weeks.
Each of them named names defamed even if true posters and put very real danger of OLO being sued on the table.
Some deletions in the past have been spam, adds for other sites, even attempts to sell products, do you think we should let that stand.
BELLY, yes sounds like BELL EEEE.
You seem to get fun out of that go on enjoy your self mate.
Now my mate TPP believe me no flood of deletions or banning has taken place, in my view its about the same this year as any.
I have seen real willfully provocation, go unpunished, remember my little holding my breath thing was about actions I saw as supporting a poster, not deletions.
Politics, the crimson thing gets away now and again, we mostly can talk about it without abuse.
The dropping of Rudd the close result the hung Parliament bought about as I said totally unbalanced comments, and this exile of posters who mostly went willingly.
Try me, its fun! read the posting history of those who you miss, read the history, all of it, of our latest sin bin subject.
You will see reason to know why things happen.

Belly babe, I went and looked at older posts, lots of deletions. I didn’t see a leaving post from Foxy but then she didn’t actually leave so probably explains it. Nothing from Ginx.

But the people not here were here for so long their comment history takes forever to load.

And what may I ask in all that is holy happened there?

Examinator flamed? Flamed? I don’t believe it.

CJ Morgan was away for a couple months then came back around when I did?

Graham: “So there is not too much disinformation flying around, Foxy, Pynchme, Bronwyn and Romany have not been suspended. Horus was suspended for 24 hours for a bit of ad hom. Severin was suspended, but she's been able to post again for a fortnight. Col Rouge/Stern and Leigh both copped suspensions of less than a week each, but appear to have decided not to come back. Ginx's suspension is indefinite.”

You know what... this was just a couple of posts above me coming back and saying gidday. Didn’t even stop to read the thread I was in.

What did Ginx do

TPP,

Up until relatively recently - probably a couple of months ago - most of those who became disenchanted were still here. Then one by one they all went awol. I think it really hit home when we noticed Foxy's absence.
It was more of a coincidence that it all came light so soon after your return to OLO.

danielle..nothing to forgive

we of the lower-case
have allways made intensive study of...those of the ubber_case
[often realising..those who play their case/wars..really dont get it]

i can feel..the ink in your veins
i know..your heart is pure

please do not infure sin
where none was intended

im sure..'x'..now comprehends the powers of the..red[X]
there must..of nessesity*..allways remain that..left unspoken

[so me being me..i must say it..into word..
i see god..[EL..in you]..even reflected..in your name

i have allways read..'#'...as the more simplistic of../=/
[its funny..how the upper_case..had*to..simplify it..[for themselves]

but we of the lower-case
know the differences between.../=/..or..\=\
but also the inclusivness of.../=\..

thus never*..need resort to..##
[that i feel is railroading the inherant intente...
as of../=/=/=/..but never that of..\=\=\=\.,.]

but..i shall digress...the bell-ringer..[Y]..has called me to account
and lest..he use his power..of the (X)..i feel..*i must account

belly...is..in the lower-cases..
is mentally-linkaged with the pot
[measure...as in beer]..belly.,..

but*..i dont envision you..as a blooated protuberance
mimmicing the reveranced blessedness,..of one carrying child

i..*think of you..[dear bellicose belly]...as a bell
that rings..pure/clear..its loud/protective warning...
with the intent..of warning..all..of potential danger

thus my abriviation..of your full title..
only is symbolical..[not diabolical]..of your higher call..and fun-ction

the e..is the key..!
[literally...and figerativly]..E..means key.!*

thus my abriviation/deviation..of the bell joinder with the E..indicates a key bell...sounding its war-ning...

the repitition of the e..
is only symbolic..of the strength*of key..in thee
which..i think you to be
anyhow i guess thats it..for me

please do not see flame..where there no fire be

[and dont blow smoke up my @]..eh
i was being respectfull*...and love you both

so saying...lets explain..that this is a numbers game

[we can all see..a darn advert..when we see it]
but for me..if it brings them back*...

[ie its posted by a real person..
after all..only trying to earn a crust...let it be]

lets give this..*new member..some trust...[one advertorial seems fine]...but one..on every*topic..thats abuse*

i would leave...their first*
advise them...that any more..WILL*BE..DELETED

because we of the red cross/club...dont abuse our power
be they upper..[ubber]..case..or lower

posted..just in case

You will find TPP I welcomed deep blue to the forum, and Lexi too, bit slow there, but if it is foxy good.
Now I want not to put the stick at any posters throat, will welcome deep blue back, but look at his her post history,[I have hinted]
A few posts looked very different and needlessly got prickly in my view.
Examinator? he often fell out with GY,he seemed to find conflict ,I had no problems with his ways, but he left not exiled.
Ginx? is there one contributor who never cringed at least once at her manner?
I think we all should understand,everyone of us,a forum as well known and used as this can not please every one,GY can not be blamed for being just what we all are, individuals with our own thoughts and ideas.
He once said he does not agree with my views,as a conservative he may well grow out of that, but he has every right to his views.
Question,if any one of us was the owner/moderator of this site, could we say we would take only actions that please us all.
I was going to use humor here,speak about how long it would take me to ban three posters, but I would be kidding you.
I would not ban them, let them enjoy the sand box they play in that is our free speech in action.

Poirot:"I think it really hit home when we noticed Foxy's absence"

That would be because she's the only one of that group who ever actually contributed anything. The rest were simply noisemakers and conversation blockers.
