When posts are removed, the moderator can choose to leave a delete message. Only moderators and Sherdog staff can delete posts from other users. The text "U" was supposed to be "Unnecessary" but c/p during a number of deleted posts in that thread apparently went awry. The post was deleted for the use of a racial/ethnic slur. Please refrain from using terms like those going forward--I looked into your recent post history and deleted another use of it.

Thanks.

Whoa! Full stop, Jay. I do not use racial slurs. I simply commented that he isn't getting the contract because he stands with Palestine.

Is that not two TOTALLY different things?

Please, good sir, if you will, can you PM me what racial slurs I have ever posted? Or is it possible you're mistaken there?

Thanks.

Hi, Joe!

You necro'd an almost two-year-old thread that's pages deep in OT derail.

I like your update (necro post) on your current experience in the app but I recommend taking that post and re-threading it as an OP in Berry; you can even sequence it Tinder, v2.

Your thread won't be moved if discourse can stay topical and relatively clean, i.e., not overly sexual. We can to an extent help you keep the discussion on-rails as well. Sound good?
 
I just had a post of mine deleted and I cannot for the life of me remember what it was that I posted. I was given a message 'Reason: Offensive. Let's not do that please' and it's extremely irritating not knowing what it is that I did, because I can't remember what I posted. I don't recall posting anything offensive.
 
Offensive post about Muslims in the War Room that could have been cards.

Please clean it up and follow site rules.

I didn't make any offensive comments about Muslims.

Calling an entire community or religion a "joke" is offensive to members of that community or religion. But it wasn't deserving of cards, which is why the post was just deleted instead of developing into a potential flame war.
 
I made a thread about ex UFC HW champion Maurice Smith and it was moved into fantasy match ups where its not getting seen by anyone. Can someone please move it back to UFC forum? Thanks.

Hey Ludwig,

We tend to move “Time Machine” threads because it opens a can of worms that can be essentially never ending, and given that they will never practically take place, we move them to allow the current ufc threads to take priority in our ufc forum.

I understand it can be frustrating to be moved to a less popular sub, but it does fit into the type of thread that sub was created for. Feel free to read more about it here: https://forums.sherdog.com/threads/fantasy-matchup-discussion-rules-and-guidelines.3933093/
 
Once in a blue moon I receive an email pointing out all the fantastic stuff I'm missing on Sherdog. Unfortunately, I only pop in for the political section in the War Room section but the system doesn't allow you to post until you have so many points, or whatever.

So I look forward to the next email in 6 months time, and I'll think, "Oh yeah, I forgot about Sherdog".

Forums tend to struggle for traffic and when you're here, they don't let you post. What a bizarre site.

See you at the next email.
 
I have 150 posts and i still cannot start threads.

Late edit.

I can start threads despite being warned i cannot.

Your thread was rehoused to our subform dedicated to topics deemed conspiratorial and/or fringe in nature. This is to benefit of TS as well as topic because there are fewer restrictions in the respective sub on what constitutes a derail and not – meaning you can freely have the discussion you want to have.

I guess it is fringe compared to the more mainline politics discussed over there and it is to political for Mayberry. Thanks for the clarification.
 
It was not a thread but was two single posts deleted by @PurpleStorm with a warning about flaming posted in the UFC Fight NIght 244 thread.

I merely asked, without a single insult why a site like Sherdog, a source for MMA information, does not post within Event Announcement, the time events starts. I even said, 'maybe i am missing it'? I think the TIME of an event is core information for MMA fans who want to plan around an event. But the last couple events i have had to leave SHerdog and use google or go to other sites to get that data.

PurpleStorm first pointed me to the event page, but i then pointed out neither there or the other main post on the home page have the "time' (again unless i am missing it) and he suggested then there is always 'google'.

I said, yes i know there is google, but that was my point. Why would the premier MMA site want us to leave to use google? Isn't Sherdog.com trying to be the home for MMA information'?

That is when my posts were deleted and the post put up that mod bashing or whining, would not tolerated.

I am absolutely taken aback and hope another MOd can read my deleted posts as there is nothing there that would qualify in those regards. I can only guess that me saying 'should not Sherdog try to be the home of MMA information and not want people going to google' was seen as deeply offense to him????

I would like some help understanding what is allowed if not asking 'what time fights start' and 'why does not Sherdog.com not post that info'?

Why was this thread moved to the great beyond?

I started it in the war room due to the political subject matter, I thought that was where it's supposed to be?

I’m not a WR mod but I believe singular opinions don’t meet the criteria in that sub for a new thread. They tend to do a thread per topic and let everyone discuss in the same thread. It’s more strict requirement wise than our other subs on thread starting guidelines

I take a lot of issues with your post here.

Check your tone, the staff here are humans who are volunteering their time and if you cannot talk to them without being rude, disrespectful and condescending then you really don’t have to talk to them at all.

The preview thread your discussing is a passion project @PurpleStorm took up on his own accord to provide a service to the posters that was previously absent and is valued by the community.

If you’ve been following this sport as long as most people here you’d be aware of the constant changing bout orders, withdrawals, subs and cancellations. It’s literally constant all the time. There’s only 2 things guaranteed on fight night. That’s when the prelims start, and when the main card starts. Anything else is shoved around consistently to accommodate production, the live atmosphere, and cancellations. You’ll notice the main card and prelim card start times are conveniently located in the title of the designated discussion thread the night of the event.

If you wish to have additional information I’d encourage you to spear head a fight scheduling passion project in which your free to update the rest of us on what you claim to be a severely easy task and see how it works out for you when your wife needs to chat for 30 minutes, the bout order changes, and thousands of sherdogers decide to remind you that you’ve made a mistake. It’s not as simple as you seem to think it is, and maybe before you go off ripping people apart and being condescending, you should try it on yourself first. I for one look forward to you demonstrating to the rest of us how mind numbingly simple this all is.

Cheers.
