Failed Moderation

in U.S. Coin Forum

It is laughable when you get this…

“It's a shame when you open a discussion titled "ANA Show Report #1 - Travel Day" only to find a long string of photos infused with political jabs. We're leaving this up to show folks what in considered political (and misleading).

There are plenty of places one can go to rant on politics and let off steam.
The PCGS Coin Forum IS NOT that place.”

For a satirical post meant to bring some humor to the resumption of somewhat normal times in the hobby, you have only proven that 291fifth, who was once the runaway leader in the forum race to being crowned ‘King Dullard’ is now in a legitimate foot race to the bottom.

Perhaps the fact that over three times as many people noted enjoying the post for the apolitical pandemic satire that it actually represented, than rushed to pay sheepish, sycophantic subservience to your nonsensical comment, should shake you into the realization that rather than prove that you fail to understand my post, you should have been attempting to achieve moderation success over on the BST where Teddy and Mason were scamming collectors out of their hard earned money…..for the SECOND time. At very least, you should educate yourself about the difference between self deprecating humor and political jab. (How does one politically jab himself?) But no.

Or you could have closed out the two threads I created two years ago that were clearly satirical and just like this show report. But no.

Or you could have managed to prevent robylu52 etal from flooding the board with endless CAC bashing threads without me having to have spoon fed you the evidence that multiple accounts were the same person(s). But no.

So leave the thread and your comment at the end up for educational purposes because you are memorializing something, just not what you intended. As I said in the satirical thread, nothing is more amusing than someone who is obtuse, and proud of it.

Cue the sycophants and the ban.

    I like to ride a roller coaster as it is barreling down steep and fast. This thread has that feel. Jump in and tighten your seatbelt. This may be the post of the day care of panex. Do the moderators keep bankers hours, or are they always on the prowl day and night? To echo a comment above—nazis in any coin show thread….not the best idea of the day.

    But I do commend and fully support calling bs when you see it, feel it or experience it. And I think the slight from the mods had a very much soapbox aura to it. Humor and satire are needed now moreso than ever before with the current political and sickness/co-vid/vaccine/cancel/shaming lies atmosphere the msm is force-feeding us. Being unique and quirky and having the smarts and wit to convey a story from the op is truly refreshing. I pray for your continued presence here, and honestly all of ours at the rate things are going in 24 hours from now. The ANA WFOM is gonna get rolling here soon in Chicago…I hope good accurate threads will dominate the forum with lots of pictures and reports on the exhibits.

    Chance favors the prepared mind.

    Bottom line is this forum is paid for and moderated by our host. If you don't agree with their rules you have the right to leave just like they have the right to close your thread.

    They post the rules clearly and didn't ban you. Instead of chastising the Moderator you should suck it up buttercup and be grateful.

    Since it is clear you are upset and blinded by your opinions perhaps you should heed the advice of others and delete this thread and your comments before you are banned.

    How you feel ok about posting the pics you did is beyond my comprehension. Quite frankly I was shocked by the support you received from other members.

    To be clear, I didn't see the other thread until it was closed but I agree with the Moderator for closing it.

    It was a few here that got it closed. They told the moderator otherwise they (the moderator) would not have read it. I didn't read it till after it was closed, it's not a topic I cared about.

    Interesting.
    Growing older (and wiser?) I find the opposite to be true.

    Probably, but there were two things in there that are definite no-no's. There was clear political content and there were mid-20th century Germans in uniforms.

    I agree. There were 2 things that were a no no.

    My advice-Get over it. I posted a poll a while back and someone whined to a mod about the comments and got it closed, but you don't see me getting all butthurt and making a whine-baby thread about it.
