It has to earn 4 out of 10 votes for deletion. If it has gone over the 10 votes of do not delete and less then 4 for deletion, then the voting is closed and you no longer see the moderate. I am just guessing at this, but it does seem that way.

Yeah I have seen 3 diffrent post get deleate for just say hi.

How would that make a new person feel? all they have done is say hi. and suddenly they nomenated for deleation or worse are deleated. I have seen 2 just delat their account and I don't blame them I would do the same.

It is just sad is waht it is explode

MsWizard, your viewpoint is shared by others.
Myself included.
I don't like the idea of censorship at all.

I can see certain things being censored (i.e. spam, truly disgusting revolting stuff)...but what I've SEEN being voted on for deletion dont appear to warrant it of any kind...am I missing something? noway

Kid, then go into every new thread & vote "Don't Delete".
We are in the driver's seat.
Drive the site where you want it to go.

One of the problems that may arise from this system could be if you post a thread and it is put up for deletion, someone who you may have had a disagreement with could vote to have it deleted, or vice versa.
If you have several of your posts deleted, then you may be banned from posting or even have your account deactivated.
I still think it better if Mike or Van use their discretion on what to delete. But that's my opinion.glasses

Folks, before you let something scare you, understand it.
If undersood I think this is a good system, don't want something deleted, vote that way. Lets US get rid of the vulgar/stupid crap. Helps management with the site, Mike said they would be reviewing it all. Not working they will make a change. Not even a week old, give it a chance.

Just go with what Mike said and you are on the safe side

As soon as there are 4 "Do not delete" votes, the voting ends and the topic cannot be deleted any more. In a similar fashion, as soon as there are 7 "Delete" votes, the vote ends and the topic is deleted. There can't be more than 10 votes on any topic.

i personally think it's awesome...no more throwing a fit when something disgusting comes up...if it's disgusting to all, it'll be out the door, aye?

every thread goes up for a limited time...you have a choice whether or not to vote.

Well like I said, truly disgusting and despicable is one thing...but in general, I have yet to see anything that really needed to be deleted...if I dont like something? I ignore it AND the poster from that time on...makes life easy for me and I can read the comments of the people I enjoy....
