For what it's worth, for a solid 3 or 4 months now the mods have been very clear about enforcing the policy around no political posts. There have been a half-dozen overtly political posts that have similarly disappeared.

I don't think it's anything unique to the subject matter, you, and I don't think the mods have shown any sort of political bias in their actions recently.

I deleted your thread. Please read our posting policy. No doubt there is a grey area in all this. I try to allow threads remain thet have some element of value to the discussion of Ohio University Athletics or even Ohio University. I'm not sure what the burning need is to discuss politics here. I've made this offer before. Set up your own message board (and there are platforms that will easily do this) and I will link to it. Otherwise, I don't want to waste my time reading/moderating posts from five-year-olds. Which is what political discussions devolve into. You did/I didn't, you did/I didn't. I did my time parenting five-year-olds.

Hey OCF - we both were deleted. No YSU thread either. I guess I must have missed the posts that were so bad. What's sad is that the growing belief in the inability to have a conversation about anything deemed political. With the dearth of media coverage of local issues and the growing number of uncontested races at least in Athens County, there is no meaningful political discussion any longer. I for one don't want to go on some random site to discuss issues with folks from Venus and Mars. That said, I also don't own this site or monitor it. Therefore, I'm limiting my comment to the very specific. As a part time development officer for Muskingum University, if we were to make such a hire I'd be headed to the first tee tomorrow.

Remember that time Kissinger was in time for a speech or something and went to see a Clash cover band at The Union and got so hammered he couldn't appear at the UN later?
