    I started a thread in R&R regards invalid ranting, i.e people ranting about things when its THEM that are in the wrong. I was very careful not to imply I was talking about the boards r&r forum, I was talking in general.

    Its seems this thread has not been approved...as there are several newer ones ahead of it and no sign of mine. Please advise :)

    Have you tried PMing the R&R mods to find out why the thread hasn't been approved?

    Yeah, that should be your starting point.

    As per the charter, rants about boards.ie, it's users or any specific threads/posts are not allowed in R&R.

    Starting a rant (no matter how general) about posters in R&R and calling them idiots would be considered a breech of the charter.

    Rants do not have to be factually correct, that's not the point of the forum. It's designed to let you rant about anything that makes you angry (within the rules).

    For example, I may start a rant about people driving at 120kms on the motorway and slowing me down when I want to get passed.

    I know full well that they are in the right and I am in the wrong because I want to go faster than the posted speed limit, but it doesn't mean I'm wrong to rant about them.

    I hope this explains how the forum works.
