There are some deactivated members here that weren't last week. Is this a temporary thing? What the heck happened if it isn't?

I bet a frequent poster  got " moderated" and is outraged lol. 

It happened quite a few times to me : my phone ( which has several languages in it ) took off which happens regularly: and then I have to fight the foreign spell-checker for every word literally . 

When my phone does that I usually accept weird capitalizations and accents as the best I can do and assume readers know it's not my fault or drunk texting lol. This condition has been mistaken by the moderators as deserving of censorship grr. 

If I wasn't moderated ( and so prevented from editing my own posts ) I would have fixed it as soon as I could : but deleting posts and censorship keeping posters from controlling their own content is offensive and insulting. 

There is an issue here with unexplained moderation and endless moderation and deletion of posts.

People leave the site and delete their profiles.

Stay around long enough...and the site has almost 100 percent turn over every few years ...there are a few long term vets, but most of the people that were here 3, 5, 10 years ago...are gone.

I actually have to agree that it probably was that someone got moderated and it outraged a few of them along with it. Thats usually when the TOS gets laid out.

Well at least no one was blocked and had their avatar changed to a picture of a pig wearing lipstick.

(Reference to another website that actually happened).

Or had a bad review left on their business FB page when they had never done business together.

Or banned a large group of people who were actually asking why certain people were removed without notice or warning.

Or changed peoples' user names to things like Need2GrowUp.

Or implied that people were bullying others via PM but then sent an email saying "you weren't doing what I implied you were doing".

The owner of the Bariatric Pal found MY FB business page and left a bad review of me.  It's in my pics.  ;)
