Here is the chain of events on this matter:
The post was removed for evaluation by a mod (not me) to Admin so we could decide if it constituted a flame. An e-mail (from that mod) was dispatched to the user informing him of this action. Before a decision could be reached, he posted the post that you can still read above. This new post also included a one word insult directed at ticklemonster which was edited out by me. Based on this additional information about the users attitude, it was clear that the intent of the first post was flame, so we chose to leave it removed. I also personally e-mailed the user to inform him of why his post was removed.
End of story. Isn't administration fun?! We get to do this for every post that is 'problimatic'. It takes up a good measure of my and other mods time each week.
As one might imagine, it can keep a person so busy that they have no time to post 'fun' things.
As to Hak's statement that I delete anytime I feel like it, no I don't. Like all other mods, I follow the procedures for post removal. Trouble posts are moved to an administrative forum, where all mods discuss the post in question, then we decide to either put it back or leave it out.
