    just that.

    Justified in my opinion.

    The reason the posts were removed was because they were completely off-topic. Don't discuss moderation on thread, simple rule of thumb.

    This is the seed of the part of the thread that was deleted:

    Actually, that post received an infraction for "breach of forum charter" - arguing with moderation on-thread is expressly forbidden by the charter.
    I see worse that that every single time I log on to boards.ie—but I don't see the offenders getting issued with "infractions." And what about the board member who told me to "suck it up"? Why didn't he receive an "infraction"?
    For one thing, because you didn't report the post. If you have a problem with a post, report it.
    This is a politically motivated witch hunt by oscarBravo, nothing more, nothing less. The double standards are plain to be seen.
    Repeating the accusation won't make it any more true.
