Where is the line...

So, where's the line in the ToS that says, "we'll delete anything we think might cause controversy somewhere, sometime"?

Right here:

The Moderators have the last word in any dispute and are responsible for interpreting the ToS. When they deem it in the best interest of ScubaBoard, they may edit or delete: avatars, pictures, signatures, posts and threads.

Exactly. But now the best interest of ScubaBoard is "well, we think that maybe something might happen somewhere."

Really? You mean the complaint in this thread won't be deleted like the one in the other thread? How quaint!

If you wish to make a complaint, I've detailed the courses of action for you in my post above. I'm not sure how much more clear I can make it.

R-i-i-i-i-i-i-g-h-t.

Y'know, every other time I've had a post deleted, I could cheerfully say, "I can see that." I cannot say that any more.

To all appearances, the COAs are worthless.

So exactly what is the problem you're complaining about?

A controversial picture was removed. Discussion regarding the photo was removed because it's out of context without the photo. A Mod post was made making note of both of those things. Your first posts were deleted during part of that initial cleanup.

Your other post was deleted, because it asked why your post was deleted and you were fussing about not being PM'ed about it. The Mod notice was left addressing the reasons for the deletions. Since your questions was answered by the Mod Post and it was part of the deleted discussion, there was no reason to leave it by itself.

Mods are not required to PM a user when a post is deleted, however most Mods do it as a courtesy when dealing with individual users. In a case where there are multiple deletions being made, a Mod post in the thread is generally used instead. That is what happened in this case.
