A Suggestion Regarding Removal Of Posts


Three suggestions for providing greater transparency in why certain actions are taken. 

When a post is removed from a thread it now reads "Post Removed" followed by the date.  I suggest it should include who the poster was and the reason why the post was removed.

A thread could be terminated, but not removed.  The moderates should be able to stop any new posts from being added to a thread, but the thread should be available for viewing and archived.

Lastly, give the starter of a thread and only the starter the option of removing posts from that thread because they are "Off Topic".  The OP can help by stating right at the start what they consider "Off Topic".  The person who posted the "Off Topic" post can be given the option of staring a new thread.

Just a few thoughts with the intent of making Audiogon More Friendly Again!

I still consider buy site to have freedom post. Instead when someone push delete post it delete that user.

Wife sister like me to buy site and set up dating component so lonely girl find nice pure audiophile with good ear.

Way to start a thread that is destined for removal and look at all those wasted keystrokes.

Hmm, I was thinking this is audio; not world peace or world hunger.  A hobby unless you're a dealer.

If its self-validation that's essential, I'm not sure this site can help.  Spirited discussion on the merits of product or approach; why not?  Otherwise, we get what we pay for (it's free).  Peace, love and rock & roll.
