I've left several Swansea related threads active if you still wish to discuss what's happening out west, and I won't delete any threads about them if some time and thought has gone into the content, but the 'one line' threads have to go, let's get back on topic gents.

Ben, I deleted the threads are contained only a sentence or two or the ones that I personally felt were not created to cause a serious debate, others that were similar in nature were merged.
As for your comment as to how I can justify choosing which threads to delete, well I used my best judgement, what else did you expect me to do?? Pop around Annis' house at 6am for a meeting??? Gimme a break mate, I'm just trying to keep the board moderating as is expected of me surely??

Ben us moderators do have some guideance which we follow. We don't do things on our own feelings. I mean if we did the majority of Jacks on here would be gone and that would be all down to me. So trust me, all opinions are welcomed even if some of the mods don't like it.

so because YOU feel they are "one liners" or "have no relevance" they can be deleted? Freedom of speach??, all Opinions welcome?? I see stuff posted by mods that are "one liners" or "have no relevance" can be deleted if we point out they are "one liners" or "have no relevance" ?

Can't you understand that they mean one lne threads where there are already discussions going on about that same subject in other threads?
Threads that are made because either;
a, the OP wants to be a special snowflake and thinks his opinion matters too much to be buried underneath other people's posts or
b, the OP hasn't checked whether there's an open thread already because what they had to say was far too important to spend two seconds checking it hadn't already been said.
It has bugger all to do with free speech, it's just trying to have a tidy forum where several threads on different subjects can exist without being pushed down to the bottom of the page by a dozen single line threads on the same subject.
Anyone with half a brain could see that what Gavlar did did not in any way infringe on any freedom of speech, which I might add is not a right on forums, and in many ways actually encouraged it by allowing different threads and ideas to be expressed.
