Drug references and jokes are inappropriate, but the constant sex topics aren't? I get they get closed but I get my post deleted but they just get a simple closure. Topics can easily be deleted so why not delete those inappropriate topics also?

Drug references are inappropriate? When have there even been drug references?

Don't worry, I'm a qualified Reactor Operator. I can handle this situation.

Since I made a joke about snorting *CENSORED* and "cried for 5 minutes.", which resorted to me getting a moderated message.

Yet I did the same and didn't get an MM.
And I posted a near naked Pepe the Frog meme and didn't get any consequences?

I've already deleted, like, 6 or 7 of those topics today alone. My rationale comes down to post number. If I find a rule-breaking topic in its infancy I personally always delete it. But if a topic has surpassed around 35 posts or so then it gets tricky. If itgets deleted off the 1st page, everyone notices and, on this board, two more topics about it emerge along with around 5 posts in personal thoughts.

But if you a lock one of those topics with a post denouncing the topic, it's supposed to send the message that that stuff shouldn't get brought up again. Obviously it has mixed success. Of course, deleting a closed topic just creates more confusion, so I avoid that.

In your particular case I'm not personally offended by what you posted and I would have given it a free pass in the past but as I've said multiple times today, I was recently told to no longer show posts about that kind of subject matter leniency. Maybe some lurkers complained in private or something, but I can only speculate. It really shouldn't be that hard to avoid posting this kind of stuff on the site. Some of us have mostly avoided doing so for years and our brains haven't exploded yet... as far as you know, anyway. <.<;

Thank you HIR for the explanation. Love how you always give us an explanation rather than just ignore the problem.

No problem.

All I can say is that this was probably a reactionary shift on my part. I got told off for being too lenient, so my knee-jerk reaction was to go the opposite route. It doesn't help the case when most of the front page is filled, whether jokey or not, with the stuff I got chewed out for. So I apologize if it looked like I suddenly went at topics and posts with a gatling gun. I don't like deleting your guys's stuff. It feels dirty. <.>;

No need for an apology.

I'd say I was disappointed in you... but that implies I expected differently from you. :3
