Jim Riley Posted December 10, 2022 Report Share Posted December 10, 2022 I was composing a post for the Politics section, "understanding the rise in channel crossings" but suddenly got an error message. 2F173/K, "you need 10 posts to access the politics section" I passed the 10 posts hurdle years back, if a thread has been deleted rather than locked can we be informed . Is it a new server or old mod problem?🤣🤣🤣🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackrose Posted December 10, 2022 Report Share Posted December 10, 2022 Maybe technical help requests should be posted here as it's not really a General Boating topic. https://www.canalworld.net/forums/index.php?/forum/3-technical-account-support/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's also a problem for other posters who were on the thread too though, who wouldn't be aware if it was posted out of the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichM Posted December 10, 2022 Report Share Posted December 10, 2022 You will get that error if you try to visit a topic in the Political & Current Affairs forum while not logged in, e.g. as a guest. However, the topic was hidden by the Moderator team after review as per standard procedure if a topic or post falls foul of the Forum Rules & Guidelines. This is why you will see a different error if you try to access a hidden topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mac of Cygnet Posted December 11, 2022 Report Share Posted December 11, 2022 When a boy gathering snow to make a snowman, I was told to avoid the yellow bits. But of course you could say that sort of thing then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peers rip off milions of quid and stash it away out of the taxman's reach, new coal mines open in the face of a climate catastrophe (owned, of course, by a Cayman based company), MPs go off and earn thousands for eating bugs or giving speeches instead of looking after their constituents - I don't think the sensitive souls of the right (rightwhingers?) have to worry too much!

Bad though all that may be, none of it has anything to do with "political correctness" as a principle applied by the loonie left. Or any political persuasion in fact. "Political correctness (adjectivally: politically correct; commonly abbreviated PC) is a term used to describe language,[1][2][3] policies,[4] or measures that are intended to avoid offense or disadvantage to members of particular groups in society.[5][6][7] " https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_correctness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Riley Posted December 11, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2022 I've no objection to a thread being removed for review, could we just have a message reflecting that, rather than the one we were getting, "too low post count".

It would be nice and hopefully helpful if we were eventually told why action had been taken other than "somebody complained". I sincerely trust a thread isn't terminated/locked/hidden etc merely on the word of one person censoring the forum by complaining. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
