If I posted a Biden or Warren Coin would Heather delete it?

I could understand the Trump coin being banned if it turned into a political back and forth...but it had not.

I personally think PCGS should be more neutral when it comes to politics as they do seem to favor the opposite side. Remember this john4sc.com/
PCGS let that fly without a hitch and all but made me stop posting here(I did for awhile).

I believe that the point in question is that this is a numismatic forum, not a political one.

Heather did not "delete" that previous thread, she simply "closed" it to further comments.

Anybody who wishes to look at the photos can still do so. Anybody who wants to read the comments can still do so. Anybody who wishes to hit one of the reaction buttons can still do so.

That previous thread was not "poofed".

You should be more accurate about things that occurred here.

Yes

I only vaguely remember that thread. If I recall correctly I think it was a coin collector or someone in numismatics who was running for office? It was also a more local race which does not have quite the polarization of a national race,

I can understand your frustration if you felt there was a clear bias, and I am very sensitive to obvious bias as it exists in many other places, but to be honest I don't see it here on the forum with the moderators.

I am confident that if you could find a Biden or Warren medal and posted a picture of it, it would start to generate a heated discussion and the thread would be closed in no time.

Missed the other thread so in before the close.

This will not last long.

Why the poll? Biden nor Warren (or anyone else) is nowhere near securing any nomination.

Yes

Yes it will be closed.

Yes, my bad and I tried to change it and correct a misspelling but I couldn't because it was a poll.

I actually asked in a PM for the thread in question to be deleted but it is still here, time to eat supper...if this is still here I will go see if I can dig it up!

Thank you for the post @amwldcoin. I understand it may be hard to understand why a thread was closed when it seems clean. This is because I and the other moderators delete offending comments before closing the threads in lieu of leaving them to further spark debate. As you can see in the remaining comments on the thread it had clearly gone off the wall.

So to answer your question for you, no the post would not be closed simply for containing a political coin, however it will be closed once comments take a turn toward political debate.
