I got cranky about a post of mine being deleted with no explanation, so I pulled my original pic post, then mellowed a bit and posted again with the different shot.

obviously you can't see the reasons that I write when I delete then:(

I deleted as it was only 2 photo's per poster I know you weren't putting it in the comp but to have 3 photo's could of been confusing for others especially when voting....I deleted and wrote why (didn't realise you couldn't see that)

you could of always started another thread......to talk about the shots that weren't entering

[WhiteD3]

The polite thing would have been to PM me, explaining your concern and asking me to remove the post. I had a look around the site for the rules explaining the role of Moderators..........couldn't find it, but I doubt mods are allowed or meant to decide what posts are relevant or not.

wow.....ok! well I would of Pm'd had I of known you couldn't read my reasoning as to why
..(this might I add I have bought up with the moderators to see if we can fix)

would you like me to undelete and start it in a new thread for you?...

Also if you ever have any concerns you can always PM me. like I said I never realised you couldn't read what I left behind that I apologise for...

[cal415]

Why was it deleted anyway? just as a future warning to others who dont wish to be "Moderated"

[WhiteD3]

It doesn't matter, no big deal, let's just forget it please.

[dullbird]

because he entered 2 pictures as per the rules...someone said they liked the picture he had put up..so he then put up a 3rd picture and discussed that one.

I just deleted to save confusion as to why he had 3 pics up when we were about to go into voting. I didn't realise it was going to be such a big deal...I left the reason behind in the soft delete message and just figured he would start up another thread talking about the picture...

hine sight is a wonderful thing.....had I known he couldn't read the message I would of PM'd just like I have many people before...

Anyway WD3 is now upset with me..because of it. Sorry it has happened but what can i say.

[cal415]

Over-moderation strikes again!

My vote remains #1 for the mysterious dissappearing pano shot! :)

[werdan]

Over-moderation strikes again!

I wouldn't have called it over-moderation, just a miscommunication which seems to have snowballed somewhat.

The comp states only 2 entries. Posting a 3rd in the same thread just confuses things, especially when it's so cheap to start a new thread. Actually I don't think it costs anything to start a new thread these days! :D

[cal415]

So who is the winner of this very controversial competition? :)

So who is the winner of this very controversial competition? :)

if you dont want to be moderated dont step outside the rules

it aint rocket science that 2 pics means 2 pics FFFS
