Post deleted in Humor
(Preview)
A post was deleted in humor because it was combatitive in nature, used a proper name which may have been a person's real name (we try to protect anonymity here is the user hasn't revealed their identity themselves), and did not seem appropriate to the discussion. If the person whose post was d...

Content edited and deleted in Signs of the Times
(Preview)
I have deleted content in Signs of the Times. One post was merely edited, as the content was anti-lds doctrine. A post was deleted because it was actively trolling.

Please see the post w/ the pic that I tried to remove

and delete it. Actually delete all the "funnies" I posted. Members of the Democratic party deserve a little respect and I didn't give it. That was wrong. I came with a funny I got in an e-mail, but like the pic, it too was tasteless. My sincere apologies ... I don't think straight w...

I got sloshed, shaved my head and got lots of tattoos, you say? No! I posted the topic "How much Space do you need?" in the Current events folder. I'm not sure that's where it belongs... so could you be a dear and move it to a better folder? Thanks Sweetie!!! --Ray

New Forum Request
(Preview)
Hey Arbi and other moderators, Cat's blog has really got me thinking: I'd like to request a new forum, something along the lines of the "Stengthen thy brethren" discussion that Nauvoo had a while back. I know that some of us are dealing with challenges and carrying burdens that a...

Linking to Bountiful from Nauvoo
(Preview)
As a result of recent discussions, I have received a request from the moderator of the Nauvoo forum that we no longer post links to Bountiful on that forum. Any such links that are posted will be deleted. So, kindly refrain from posting such links over there.

Why were threads locked?
(Preview)
May I ask a simple set of questions? Why were three discussions locked in the General Discusssions section with no public mention of why a moderation was necessary, why was there no notice given that one had been taken, and which moderator was responsible? Unless I am mistaken, this is not keeping wit...

Tacky joke
(Preview)
I'd like to request that Ray perform some moderating actions in the Favorite Joke thread. I find Mahonri's joke very tacky and inappropriate for public consumption. Please edit or delete it.

Apology
(Preview)
Recently some moderation took place on the board. It was done in such a way as to cause embarrassment to the person moderated. I apologize for that. I have talked with the other moderators, and we think that we can do this in a way that will not cause embarrassment in the future.

Technical difficulties

This isn't about moderating, but I don't know where else to put it.
I am having trouble viewing the "Disciplining Kids" thread in General discussions. When I click on it, sometimes it doesn't load completely. I just posted there, but I can't view my own post.
Does anyone else have trouble wit...

At CatHerder's request, I am starting this thread to discuss the other thread where I criticized Cat for criticizing Melissa who protested that Cat called some woman on a plane an idiot because she declined to use a blanket while breastfeeding. Melissa apparently has abandoned that discussion aft...

New rules discussion

It has come to my attention that our rules are probably not comprehensive enough for this forum. Therefore, I am opening this discussion to what you, the members of the forum, think the rules should be. Please, serious suggestions only. After we've had a good discussion, we'll hold a poll to see which...

Arbilad, when you merged the topic areas, a couple of threads that should not be in the new Forum News and Rules are got included...

Bokbadok: Please close and/or moderate Jefferson thread

Bokbadok, please review the Jefferson thread in General Political Discussions. I feel that, for various reasons, it is no longer a reasoned discourse. If you feel as I do, please close and/or moderate the thread.

Please join with him there to celebrate the continuation for...

Profanity filter
(Preview)
I have decided for now to turn back on the profanity filter. I have also, in some cases, set it to use an unrelated word, just to make it funnier.
This does not excuse the use of profanity anywhere in this forum. Use of profanity will be considered sufficient reason for immediate moderation of the post...

Moderation committee

I am not yet going to form a moderation committee. I know that I now have 3 moderators, but I'd like at least one more before I form a committee. At that time I'll probably take a vote as to people's preferences for who will be on the committee. The vote won't be binding on me, but it will have a strong influen...

Banning users

One of my moderators raised the question about banning users who reveal themselves not to be LDS. It is the official policy of this board that anyone who is not LDS will be summarily banned. There are plenty of places for LDS and Non-LDS to discuss political issues. I feel that the value of this forum is i...
