    Default Whodunnit??? Who Killed TOO's Thread???

    I visit SW to interact with unusually independent, beautiful and opinionated
    women. For that reason alone, I was not surprised yesterday when TOO stated in no uncertain terms that this site is operated by dancers for dancers, and that any impression held to the contrary is misguided.

    I appreciate TOO's current (and reportedly ad infinitum) support of SW. However, after a series of exchanges regarding ownership, contributions and overall perceptions of how SW is run, what appeared to be a civilized and rational thread abruptly vanished...

    Thank you on behalf of all of all of us who wondered the same thing, wanted to post, but wondered if we might also get mysteriously deleted. (Or pointed, or yelled at yikes!)

    People can see how this thread's deletion might make ppl feel as tho they are walking on eggshells eh?


    Anyway---yr on point. It was not a flamefest, and even those get closed with a statement at the end.


    It just feel so undemocratic and that sucks.


    TOO you said you are just like any other member here---the mods can do whatever they want to you just like anyone else.

    Then why can't you act like any member here? We all have our controversial threads where people think we are ridiculous, could have edited it, flat out don't agree---ours are left up anyway.

    Who do you think did it?
    Why not PM that person instead of creating a whole thread about it?

    The "why"....well, that was not the OP's subject.

    Frankly, I thought the post was cool. It was nice to know a little bit of background on the creation/maintenance of the site. But, as per usual, people are retarded and get their dirty t-backs in a wad over nothing.

    I guess I look at this thread as a way to freely state that bc of this shit, posting sometimes is getting borderline "uncomfortable."

    Well I hope I don't get chewed out for that. And I hope this stays open just a lil longer, I think people are really wondering why and feeling that ...well....not that it's "unfair", but just like......wtF?

    Yeah, I was confused by it disappearing. I saw the thread and was gonna say thanks to TOO, but the kiddos started acting up and by the time I got back online it was gone.

    I have to agree with this. I didn't think it was controversial. If people get so aggravated with TOO and his style of writing, or mentioning of funds, or whatever, can't they put him on the ignore list? There's lots of people who post actually out of line stuff, not just romance-novel porn about Nicolina and tributes to Pryce.

    I guess that's just what I wanted to clear the air about. It seems like when someone doesn't agree with him, it's called flaming, and in reality we were having a discussion. (No offense to you hun.) Just....can't we be thankful and also have other opinions?

    He did not take the thread down...Moderators call.

    I would have liked to see it locked if anything had to be done as i liked reading it, but...

    Oh god people. Let it go. The thread was getting out of control and the mod felt there was a need for deleting it. It really didn't needed to be carried on any further.

    If anyone has an issue about a thread they can PM the mod of that section. Do you really need a thread about a thread about an issue?

    Yep. I deleted it. Why?

    After all of the complaints about the thread, I realized that All the answers about the Who's and Why's about this site can be found by either reading the FAQ or asking a mod. Tis why we're here after all. And there have already been 39837362156316231630467632 threads that mention TOO's help with this forum, not to mention the banner. If Pryce feels that there needs to be something more detailed about this site's FAQ, he'll either update it or make a sticky in SITE ISSUES. Not the Lounge.

    End of story.

    I'm confused here. When I said the kiddos started acting up, I didn't mean girls here flaming. My 4yr old and my 6 mo old were both having a tantrum.

    Yes, Paige deleted it.

    We discussed it. We are not in total agreement on her interpretation, but she made my point beautifully -- the mods make these calls and when they do, they apply to me, too. I have no special "wand of influence" to wave to change it.

    Let's let it go and focus our collective energies on the upcoming fundraising campaign!

    Well, for me I read it and I liked it.... it was one of those posts IMO that didnt really need comments... it was more like a statement, an explination. So to me it doesnt really matter that its gone because I already read it

    I'm worried about this upcomming fundraising event. It's been mentioned several times that it will give a chance for all of us to feel ownership over he site, which sounds to me like a paysite.

    TOO...can you just clear that up for me? This fundraising event, will it be optional, if someone chooses not to participate, will SW stay the same for them, or will it be mandatory to keep SW as it is right now for us? I was thinking, if not a total paysite, maybe you will have to pay in order to access certain boards or something. So since you've hinted deeply at this fundraising event, could you please go into a little deeper detail ovr what it is?

    He mentioned in the post that they dont ever want to make it a paysite. My guess is that they are going to make it easier to make donations to the site and when they first start that have a little fundraiser to go with it... Id be heartbroken if this became a paysite. Ive already had to cancel my tanning and credit monitering and numerous other EFT payment things to bring the bills down.... I think Id cry if I lost SW.

    Well let's see if I can get this in before Paige locks the thread (which I suggested, by the way).

    It is totally optional. The site will continue to operate smoothly even if nobody gives a dime, as explained in the nuked thread (see, I'm getting good at not mentioning it at all. I'm thinking of calling it "The Topic That Shall Not be Discussed.")

    The fundraising is designed to help expand the site further -- to add features, provide more oversight, improve visibility, etc.

    I will be posting a call for ideas soon because there have been some wonderful ones we've discussed, but have failed for the lack of The Topic That Shall Not Be Discussed was not allocated to support them.

    It will be fun!
