The post wasn't actually deleted, it was passed a bulging brown paper bag and has since relocated itself to the forum of a less scrupulous team based in the eastern suburbs of Sydney.

It's gone, time to move on guys.

Son, we live in a world that has forums, and those forums have to be guarded by Mods. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Nickman? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Lucy, and you curse GE. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know -- that GE’s moderation, while tragic, probably saved lives; and my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, keeps threads on track and under the appropriately sized, highlighted green headings.
You want moderation because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that forum -- you need me on that forum. We use words like "stay on topic," "use the appropriate forum," "please delete." We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very moderation that I provide and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather that you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you get a green handle and edit a post. Either way, I don't give a DAMN what you think about moderation.

What's the story? Fans protest looking for answers
Justin Credible. The Daily Bugle 25/09/2012

It has been over 12 hours since Fuigate began and still no explanation has been given behind the post that has rocked the Boogs.

"It's still baffles me," Fui tells the Daily Bugle. "Usually the mods just edit the part of the post they don't like, or at least PM the poster telling them why the post was deleted. At present, there still hasn't been any explanation. All we've been told is to move on, and that it won't be coming back."

One of the Greenhouse's resident posters Michael, believes this is just unacceptable.

"Anyone who lets Question rack up 10,000+ posts of absolute trolling idiocy and deletes something like Brad's post is a **** prat."

As we go to press, it seems like three of the four Matt Elliott nominees will be boycotting the Boogs, with confirmation of the Muse's stance on Fuigate still unclear.

Until then, this uncredited journo will keep his ear to the ground and bring the scoops to you as they come.

"We are not answerable to this rabble"
Hi-Lee Dubious. The Ostrayan 25/09/12

Image
Greenhouse Moderation Regime leader Greeneyed refused to comment overnight. Source - Regime libraries

In a move that seems likely to further increase tension in the ‘Boogsgate Affair’, a Greenhouse spokesman has lashed out angrily at the actions of protesters who yesterday stormed the GreenEyed Estate.

“This… this rabble… dared to strut around outside the servants quarters, chanting and carrying on. His GE-ness was slightly put off from his morning task of thrashing his maid. We won’t stand for it any further, and it was frankly a delight to turn the fire hoses onto them. I answer to God! God, and GE! And not necessarily in that order! I certainly don't answer to this unwashed rabble”

Hostilities initially broke out on Monday of this week following the deletion of posts from the ‘Golden Boogs’ thread. The contentious posts, described by Greenhouse sources as being “poorly written gumph from one of the second rank plebs who haunts the cheap seats in the game day thread’ were left online only briefly before being removed. Although no official comment was forthcoming from Moderators overnight, the same sources were quoted as saying ‘Look, if this rabble had any idea just how little the Mods care for their half-baked opinions and infantile rhetoric, they’d slink back to whichever cesspit they semi-evolved from and get back to obsessing over coaching. We don’t care now, we won’t care later and we never have bloody cared!’

Well-known left wing agitator, Albi responded angrily to these comments. “It’s not fair” he was quoted as whining. “It’s just not fair. It’s not! It’s not! It’s just not!. Also, it mussed my hair when they sprayed me with that hose and also I hurt my foot a little bit while stamping it in rage!”.

Previous attempts at protest, notably by dissidents such as Bay56, have been brutally repressed by the GE-led Moderation regime.

This thread is way off topic.

Can we get back to the voting please?
The spiral of silence refers to the idea that when people fail to speak, the price of speaking rises. As the price to speak rises, still fewer speak out, which further causes the price to rise, so that fewer people yet will speak out, until a whole culture or nation is silenced. This is what happened in Germany.

If you do not speak, you are not being neutral, but are contributing to the success of the thing you refuse to name and condemn.

Debatable, I think it's still on topic. I was nominated for the Matt Elliott award, I posted something I thought would assist votes coming my way. It got deleted, and no one knows/is willing to explain why.

As per the GH guidelines;

* I didn't post a libel story, it was a story on how I went from annoying everyone when I first signed up, to being nominated for a Boogs
* It didn't contain inappropriate images or language
* It didn't post the contents of a private message
* I didn't quote another story without a link
* I didn't quote another post and alter it
* Didn't advertise any products explicitly

People are just wanting to know what the G-O is?

Can we have the "off-topic" thread unlocked so we can post random thoughts and off topic things in there?

Because I created the Fui Fui Worm Worm Thread a few weeks ago for the purpose of developing our love further and it lasted not even one post. I created it for the sole purpose of not filling other more important threads like the McCrone to Hooker thread, or the other McCrone to hooker thread or that other thread, what is it called.. Oh that's right.. the McCrone to Hooker thread with "off topic Bits of Awesome!" rather than again talk about hgow McCrone will be a good hooker.

If we get edited and deleted constantly for posting "off topic" things, can we not have a thread for this kind of banter that we can atleast post in?

Serious question..

An official statement from The Greenhouse

The Greenhouse Administrators have conducted a long and searching investigation into how Fuifui Bradbrad's post was deleted and a further post from Worm was also deleted from this thread. Both posts have been unfortunately permanently deleted. It is usual practice that deleted posts are moved to a special Deleted posts thread on the site, which is visible only to the Moderators. This enables the posts to be restored if considered appropriate, but this was not done in this case. The Mod team can make the occasional error, and we apologise for this one. The posts did not breach site guidelines, but unfortunately the posts cannot be restored. The job of Moderator is a difficult one, and unpaid, and people only volunteer for these roles so as to make The Greenhouse the best Canberra Raiders site on the web. We can only ask for your understanding when we make the occasional error.

The Greenhouse Administrators will not be making further comment on this matter.

There is a procedure for raising questions about moderation, via PM. However in this case, I'll respond. Such threads can be readily established in The Lime Lounge by anyone, that's what that board is for. The particular thread you mention was deleted as it breached site guidelines, and it was clear that the content had already been considered inappropriate in another thread.

Because I created the Fui Fui Worm Worm Thread a few weeks ago for the purpose of developing our love further and it lasted not even one post. I created it for the sole purpose of not filling other more important threads like the McCrone to Hooker thread, or the other McCrone to hooker thread or that other thread, what is it called.. Oh that's right.. the McCrone to Hooker thread with "off topic Bits of Awesome!" rather than again talk about hgow McCrone will be a good hooker.

If we get edited and deleted constantly for posting "off topic" things, can we not have a thread for this kind of banter that we can atleast post in?

Serious question..
