My Mood: Tournaments Joined: 1 Tournament Wins: 0 | For the growing number of people irritated by the other site... On the topic of Gerald Harris being in a commercial for TUF 7, someone mentioned that he used to post, and that they wish he stopped by the forum and updated them on his progress. I simply responded by saying that he probably doesn't come back as often because they deleted his blog/progress thread a while ago. There certainly isn't anything wrong with me saying this. I didn't say anything in a way that implied that I was upset that his blog was deleted (which I was, but no big deal). I just simply stated what happened to inform someone else why he was no longer posting.
Well about 5 minutes after my post, I go back, and my post has been deleted. I thought maybe I was taking crazy pills, so I posted the same thing again. Gone again in 5 minutes.
I think it's hilarious who the moderators do absolutely nothing for days/weeks about the trolls on the site, allow horrible language and slandering of many athletes/coaches/etc. Yet something as minor as my comment, which was intended to be helpful, gets deleted instantly.
Sorry I just wanted to rant. I'm done.

*Mod also said he deleted some threads that were repetitive. Issues, both political and religious DO get rehashed from time to time. I don't think it's appropriate for deletions just because the mod gets tired of seeing it. | | |

Sorry I just wanted to rant. I'm done. | I was just reading their MMA Board and Gearld Harris had just left a message about tuning into the Ultimate Fighter tonight. He said he couldn't talk about it now, since he sworn to secrecy, but he said he'll be talking about it soon. | | |
