When a machete is taken to a thread....

Recommended Posts

So there is this thread in the Incidents forum that has had a machete taken to it.
Posts are cut left, right and in-between.

This is highly unusual. I've never seen a thread beaten down so much as this one.
For my personal views on censorship, see avatar (the picture to the left, not the movie).

I can understand Eric's motivation to keep the thread to the incident, but the OP did bring up ancillary issues that may relate to the incident.

The first cut at pruning only eliminated a post or two.
The revised cutting eliminated a significant portion of the thread.
As of this point in time, only 15 of 56 posts are visible.

I have a suggestion.
Restore all the posts and move the thread to an 'appropriate' forum.
Replace the incident thread with a factual account of the incident as it is known now.

just saying.......

Unfortunately, this web site was designed many, many years ago before those types of functions became common place on the more modern forums. That legacy system only allows for so much in terms of rearranging. Pruning is "easy" but like pruning a real tree, other branches off the one cut also get caught up in cuts and there is no provision whatsoever to graft them back on.

What's done is done.
