If, according to del..., we have to "keep your personal comments to each other where they belong" then, like, whats this place for? And, if del... deleted a thread just because he/she wasn't interested in the topic of the thread, then is it safe to say that he/she is abusing their 'power'? I'm just confused.. whatever the reason we need mods on forums, im sure its not to delete threads that dont interest them, lock threads that question why they did what they did, and to pretty much tell the users of the forum to keep their opinions to themselves. Does he/she want this forum to never have any threads or what? Im probably gonna get flamed and/or banned for this thread, but hey, you can always delete it

If they don't want personal comments being made, then they need to make a board specifically for them. Or else turn on PM'ing for everyone, rather then just paying people.
"But then what will the motivation for user's to pay us be!?"
How about come up with something cool? Like up the cost to 25 bucks and make 5 dollar t-shirts at a t-shirt press that say:
"I'm an official member of Cannabis.com" or something similar in cheesiness. I'd be alot more likely to give you money if I was getting a little something more then an extra board and an ability that I should have for free anyway. I'm sure others feel the same as well.

I wondered the same thing, doesn't it say under cannabis.com lounge, that the Lounge is for threads about nothing in particular? Maybe "nothing in particular" needs to be more clearly defined. :confused: And it's funny that some mods are never around or are only in chat...what's the point of that? It seems that only one around (most of the time) is Lulu. And who the fuck is Syncro?!!

Exactly....Online forums are put in place for people to put out information..experience's and also learn new things from other people..Whats the point if we cant throw out are personal experience's or thoughts? And ive been questioning the new mods ive been seeing around dont seem very familure.

No way. There are areas directed for that, but i wouldnt say the lounge is just for those things. Its for where stoners meet up and talk. What they talk about should be up to them.

do you really want threads like "post a sentence made of random words" on the main page of a pot site? is that the kind of portrait you want the newcomers to see? now if it was alone in the midst of threads it would be different, however at the time of that post the poster already had 15% of the general room covered with threads pertaining to anything but cannabis...and the personal threads have a place too. not here tho...we have plenty of play rooms set aside just for that activity. the general room is the entry point for most newcomers and 1st are impressions can only happen once. all these personal relationships that develope here are great but does not mean this place is meant for all the "just wanna say high" threads and all the "love ya..." ones...which like i already said are great...but out of place. if the "MOVE" function worked i would use it but until it does it's just the way it is...

actualy del incase you havent noticed most of the people who are geting these "first impressions" are people sitting in their homeroom in high school with a group of kids surounding them snickering because little jimmy said "weed",not all of them of course but the people geting the first impression are the most likely to like a thread like that...i didnt like it so i didnt participate but if they want to fuck around and have a little fun by all means they most certainly should...but that is just my opinion.personaly i would love it if we could get rid of all the kiddies posting about how a cough syrup trip 'changed their life' but i cant so ill live with it like i have to and just skip over them because looking past one post will not hurt me as it wont hurt you...unless your like modman and unessisary post weaken you like kryptonite or something,but the point is with 5,000+ members you will never get rid of all those post so live and let die.just my two cents have a nice fat joint for me kick back and let the world drift away the stupid post wont stop you ;)

The point i'm trying to make, is that you could delete EVERY single thread just because you find it innapropriate, or 'silly'. But what would that achieve? People would stop bothering to start as many threads because they might get deleted, and I imagine the boards would eventually slow down to a crawl. I mean, I understand why you delete some threads (even though I disagree) but the "Just wanted to say high" and "I love you" threads should have a place here, too, as boring as they are

I thought the lounge essentially was home-room in high school.
"Friendly talk about nothing in particular."
READ IT AGAIN
Friendly talk about nothing in particular.
Friendly talk about nothing in particular.
Friendly talk about nothing in particular.
FRIENDLY FUCKING TALK ABOUT NOTHING IN PARTICULAR.
I'd say every post that you're bitching and moaning about ((del...)) fits this description PERFECTLY. Listen, there are other parts of this site for talking about cannabis.. I want a part where I can talk to my fellow stoners about whatever the hell I want.
Does a break from talking about smoking pot really bother you that much Del?

if you delete all the silly and senseless dribble on this forum,
most of the highly numbered posting people wouldnt have nothing to do and their number of posts they make would be cut down to nearly zero instead of in the thousands.
myself, sometimes enjoy the senseless dribble, it can be very amusing at times. i commend those of you who are the authors of such, and for executing your free speech rights.( for those residing within the borders of the good ole U.S. of A.)
:)
this is a great site
stop the sensorship of senseless and silly threads
i would just like to keep this on top and join in on this protest, i want you mods to realize its the majority, not just a handfull of us who dont like you deleting these things.And as for a broken MOVE button, it isnt that hard to copy and paste text and you could just tell them to recreate it somewhere else if thats where it belongs

The point ain't the number of posts..and I noticed notanovice,because of his experience and help with growing-not how many posts he makes,plus,he's a good man with a family..his opinions and life experience,are more valuable to me,than that of a youngster,with too many opinions and very little life experience,to back them up with.
Have a good one....

ghostoker, if you can comprehend what i posted, you woulodnt have taken that line out of context.
this is my second response to your post, the other was deleted because i let my temper get the best of me. read my original post FULLY, and then maybe you`ll get it.

In your own little journal whining about your relationships where no body besides a snoopy parent are going to stumble across. Relationships that essentially no body cares about. Im going with Del... on this one... its a Marijuana forum... not a love affair site. Grow up fucking children. I dont have anything wrong with good random stuff but put some thought into it for goodness sakes. Personal stuff thou has places elsewhere as stated above.

well when i originaly joined this site it wa because i was growing for the first time, now most of the threads on here may have nothing to do with the subject but i found if you asked people where only to happy to reply, i got all the information i wanted by asking, inbetween of course i read may other threads , some where plane daft some informative some made no sence to me at all, but what differance does it make? once youve read the first few lines you know whether you want to read more, its all choice. if you dont like it dont read it if you do like it read it!! who am i or anyone else to say what people can do or write? censorship is a terrable thing just because one doesnt agree with what is written doens make it wrong . so lighten up and if the thread isnt for you then click back and find one that is , simple :-) by the way all thank you very much for all the help i got growing my white widow she was lovely which is why i havent been here for a while !!!! lol stay cool all, herbal.
