It's an interesting experiment here, but I think doomed. Shizzo and I were discussing it via PM and although I initially thought that the idea might have merit, I realize that getbig is not really like other boards. The OP here is probably trying to start some shit, rather than have a serious, sober conversation. If the OP is attacking another member, he can selectively delete any responses that disagree with his contention that the person he is attacking is undeserving of the attack.

For instance, Shizzo started a thread about me entitled "AJ has missile tits" and had a go with me. All fun and games, but he could have selectively edited the thread to make me look a lot stupider than I did (it's not easy to look "smart" defending your missile tits).

It will also spawn a lot of revenge threads with a new OP with in-thread mod powers. Strangely, Shizzo and BigMC appear to be of the same mind here.

It's an experiment and should be let to run its course.

BTW, this does NOT appear to be the behavior in G&O, so this "feature" can be enabled/disabled on a board-by-board basis.

G&O would be the place that it would be most highly abused anyway.

I am not like you bigmc. You wouldn't have to worry about me erasing posts.

What happened a few days ago on the sports board?

Grape Ape erased a pefectly good post I had about the Yankees for no reason, other then he doesn't like me.

That is what we are trying to avoid.

I erased it because you were baiting me and we don't do that shit on the sports forum.

I wasnt baiting you at all. I had a different opinion on the Yankees is all.

Besides, people debate about sports all of the time.


You were wrong for erasing it.

Yes, I am biased against message board obsessed proven liars with no credibility.

But, if it's ultra important to you, put it back up. It's not like it's difficult to counter anything you say.

Its the beginning of the end  ;D

Besides, bigmc remembers when the UK board first went up.

I extended the olive branch, and both he and simple simon said I could post there.

We all saw how that worked out.

I wast even given a chance.

I got pms from everyone on there saying they didn't want you there

if it wasn't me modding you wouldn't even have been bothered

you have a personal crusade about the way I am on here

you need to let it go

come up with a good idea for your own board its not as easy as you think

That is where you are wrong. You never gave me a chance. You give all other non-UK posters (including Americans) the opportunity to post.

Why not afford me the same right? Obviously the UK board is drawing attention from posters who live elsewhere.

Why don't we wipe the slate clean? Give me a chance.

You're enabling him.

Indirectly, that makes you part of why this board has gone to full suck in the last 6 months.

If you ignore the fuckwad (like you do on the U.K. board) even a total retard like that will give up after a few years.
