I put a thread with an article about the UFC and boxing together, and it was Wastelanded. No trolling going on, and a good article. Any idea why is was Wastelanded? Thanks in advance.

Edit: It was in the HW Forum, and I think it fits there. It sheds a positive light on MMA and discusses the UFC directly.
 
why must every JTWW member, who makes a thread, that gets wastelanded, make a new thread, and ask why.

*sigh*

I didn't do it, but the title enough would be reason for me to wasteland it myself.

The title was purely to get people to read the thread. Did you read the article? There was no trolling or anything involved. I find this strange.

Me being a member of the JTWW has no bearing at all on this. I would send a direct PM to the mod if it was possible to know who moved it, but since I don't, I have to put something here. Is there a reason you have to be rude when I have not been, I've only asked a question about why a legitimate thread with a relveant article was Wastelanded. You are the one who goes out of his way to make comments about the JTWW members. Are you insinuating that the thread was Wastelanded because of the title or because I'm in the JTWW? All I ask for is for a reason.

If it's because of the title, that seems ridiculous, since nothing in the posts or the article states that Dana White would beat up PBF or anything of the sort.
 
"Because it's another retarded attempt to start another lame ass boxing vs. MMA(UFC is all that exists to the retards dumb enough to say boxing is dead)"

That was from another poster in the thread you are referring to and is probably correct. You have to consider the context of posts along with the other posts on the front page of the forum. There were probably many others with similar messages there at the time that were wastelanded or deleted .... therefore it would be inconsistent to allow that one to stay. Besides, the thread is still accessible in wasteland to post in or reference. Since you didn't appear to be offering any commentary besides the original link ... what is the harm done?

Timing is everything.

Fair enough. Thanks for giving an intelligent, non-condescending response.
 
Don't mention it. I'm at your service as are all the mods and admins here. We want the place to be better just as you do.

Judging from a previous reply (not yours, I might add), it doesn't always look that way.

Well, now it makes perfect sense. Thanks SB.

Uh, I believe you started the taunting - LockCracker wasn't budging but you sure didn't help by adding fuel to the fire. The rest of the mods were cool and being civil especially SSR. I don't think it would have gotten so carried away if you weren't so eager to bite off more than you could swallow at the time.

Then the witchhunt started. At least be man enough to admit that you went overboard in finding excuses to ban anyone that did not agree with you. Did you really expect things to cool down when you posted screenshots of ppl you banned? Or messages like "you've been put on the ban choo choo train" or something similar.

We act civil to those who reciprocate. Do you see any arguing with Shaolin Bushido above? Or for the record, has any other mod gotten undue grief from us? Fair answers get fair replies.

and no, you're wrong - as usual.

I am more than happy to be pleasant when I am not pushed, I am more than happy to help when I don't have Warwagon members come into every thread of mine they can think of to start trolling. I posted one screenshot when LockCracker got banned, because he had a big mouth, a big ego, think he spoke for the world, and think he had some kind of power.

The guy threatened to run a raid against our forum, got banned, and none of you idiots take that into consideration. He later with others DID a forum raid against me, and the rest of them got banned too.

You have absolutely no idea what in the blue hell you are opening your mouths about so you can all just go eat some pie and sit in the corner.

Thanks,

~Foz
