Shennanigans or server error?

Post by fectin »

I was just reading the vampire thread in IMHO, went to reply, and got a message "only admins can post in this thread". When I went to re-enter it, I found it had disappeared. Is that a server issue or admin action? If admin action, why? (seeking to understand, not quibble)

Six items running at full blast through a well-engineered engine will put you, and something like 50 tons of cargo, into space. Alternatively, if you thrust sideways, you will briefly be a fireball screaming across the sky at mach 14 before you melt from atmospheric friction.

Hrmmm... recently the title of that thread was changed and discussions were being made about how the owner of that kicknonstarter was going about threatening to sue people for slander and libel (presumably both because he doesn't know the difference) for making factual statements.

I can imagine certain fence building entities not wanting to wrestle with that breed of sus scrofa, especially if the thread got more enthusiasm at mocking this fellow between when I last read it and when it got displaced.

[The Great Fence Builder Speaks]

Erik more or less has it right. I can re-post Franks stuff that he wrote at the end if anyone wishes.

It would be nice if you would, but not crucial.

"Chilling" in action. Damn.
