When I asked what I was missing, I had no idea what Heartboy and then CaliforniaDream were talking about in this thread. There is a private area for moderators to discuss things and perhaps I should have asked my wtf question in there, rather than directly to the folks who I was confused by.

Once again I am amazed at how much importance is placed on this type of stuff.

What could BE more important than TPTB here treating contributors humanely and respectfully?

This should be moved into PM, more so I'm not tempted to participate in this discussion than anything else

The only reason I brought up the fact Admins can read deleted posts is because certain members abuse the delete feature, thinking they can say snarky things and then make them go away by deleting their post. All I was saying is either:

1) Stand behind what you post

or

2) Don't post it

We do not have this capability. There are no great conspiracies on the Ledge, folks.

Louie, how do I have nearly as many posts as you after only two years here? That's flat out depressing....

All I can say here to participate in this discussion is "Phew". I'm sure nobody wants to have their personal correspondences leered at, after all, not that I was ever paranoid about Mods having this capability, mind you.

I do treat all members respectfully and humanely (?). My comment was on the importance of our (mods) personalities and this section (chit chat) of The Ledge as a whole.

I'm sorry if I offended anyone with my posts about how I like to read deleted threads. I'm only human.

It's good for people to feel that they can share without fear of unjust judgement and reprisals. One thing I like about The Ledge is people's ability to discuss, argue and yet still respect each other once grievances have been erred.

maybe they do not stand behind what they posted and for that reason they deleted it? duh.

since mods have access to deleted threads, maybe they should consider bringing back the PERV thread which I accidently deleted and many wish returned. using an option for something useful...

why also allow the option of deleting posts if all that abuse youd prefer not happen is going on? oh wait, I guess a mod did decide to do just that-- I am unable to delete the thread M.I.A. after I posted I planned to. First the modstick removes the thread, then replaces the thread, then closes the thread. NICE OPTIONS!

Well, we now know that there's another option: just edit your posts if you don't want the mods or anyone to see. Nothing abusive going on.
And thanks, Louie, for letting us know what the mods can and cannot see. It didn't seem at all like gloating to me, and I appreciate the info for future reference.

I wan't here at the time, but can't you post what you want to say in a perv thread in the TMI thread? I'm assuming they're basically the same, and it seems unnecessary to have two of them going at once

Don't feel bad.

On another forum I'm on I've racked up close to 5000 posts since Jan. 2009.
