Magic eraser
It amazes me how all of a sudden, just like magic a thread will disappear.
With no explanation other than maybe someones feelings (you know who you are) got hurt. It's your Rodeo. Means you choose who gets to ride.
Merry Christmas

What does that mean? If you are going to post something, you should tell us what is going on. It sounds like you just got your feeling hurt if your thread is gone. Tell us about what is gone.

You're right. I was throwing a hissy fit. Seems the PMS and Women post has been erased. Someone didn't like my sense of humor. I don't know, but if I insulted anyone, I do apologize. What gets me is no comment or warning. Guess some people have the power to just erase whatever THEY feel doesn't taste right. Thats censorship for ya.
OK. I feel better now. Thanks

Lot going on tonight, I'm sure a notice would've worked it's way across eventually. Although I thought it was cute, it was against the rules. Have a good night.

No good could have come from it.
It had the very real possibility of offending the fine female members of our community.
(as well as the male)
Better to err on the side of caution.
Therefore, it was removed.

Yeah, pete, we're a wierd family. I posted in it, so I'm not claiming that I'm faultless. Just gotta watch what we say. Equal oppritunity, or something like that. Just blame it on being a man, and join the crowd.

Censorship? You're darn right! This is a privately owned website, not the town square. Your 1st amendment rights do not apply in here - and neither do mine.
From the site rules:
We have the right to remove objectionable content, within a reasonable time frame, if we determine that removal is necessary.
You agree, through your use of the DieselTruckResource.Com forum, that you will not post any material which is false, defamatory, inaccurate, abusive, racially based or biased, vulgar, hateful, harassing, obscene, profane, sexually oriented, threatening, invasive of a person's privacy, or otherwise in violation of ANY law.
You agreed to all this when you signed up. No sense in complaining about it now.

You're right wannadiesel. At times we seem to forget that this is a privately owned forum and therefore one must accept the forums own rules.While I have a problem with censorship on a whole, I do agree that there must be some kind of censorship. If not, this place would be down right ghetto
While I don't feel that the post in question was meant to be or in any way false, defamatory, inaccurate, abusive, racially based or biased, vulgar, hateful, harassing, obscene, profane, sexually oriented, threatening, invasive of a person's privacy, or otherwise in violation of ANY law. It was all done in good humor. I didn't feel that the subject or replies warranted its removal. A pm or something before its removal explaining why such actions were taken ? Guess thats up to the Mods. I felt it was a fun post. But thats only my opinion. Opinions are needed to make these forums work. Thats the reason I frequent them. To hear what others have to say about a product, problem, or anything for that matter.
At times, speaking ones or as in my case, voicing my opinion can be a bad or harsh thing. I've been working on taming that down for most of my life. But it is what it is. Just hope no one takes it personally. And once again, I meant to insult no one. If I did, please accept my apology.
Cheers.....and Happy Holidays

RO Pete, If a thread involves bodily functions instead of diesely functions it's gonna be under obvious scrutiny.
I started a thread about a conveyor belt -v- airplane and it got closed after a couple thousand posts. The boss made a judgment call that the thread had run it course.
Don't take it personal.
BTW the plane would have taken off.
