So, I just wanted to announce it to the forum that it appears the moderators have censored me from even accessing a post in the "political" subsection of the forum, but still allowed access to all other areas of the forum. After many repeated attempts to log in to respond to a post in a conversation I was having - I suddenly became 'booted' every time I tried to click that post.

This of course, is the logical conclusion that I came to, after realizing I was able to access somehow, mysteriously, all other areas of the forum.

I'm letting the entire forum know about it, so that all know the duplicitous nature of the workings of moderators here apparently - and that they did this covertly without any explanation whatsoever.

If not the case, I would like some kind of explanation, please. Thanks

It's a glitch.

Mods don't even have the capability to lock posters out of specific topics. :roll:

I see that the "Shoot First & Ask Questions Later" method of problem solving is still popular ... :roll:

Yes. While dealing with spam, glitches, and reports, we all got bored and decided to lock you out of a topic for no reason.

Try logging in using a different web browser, like Firefox or Chrome. I've had glitches similar to this before, and changing browsers cleared the problem up.

Why, I see that Lord Sith crawled out from behind his rock again to spew characteristic negativity and pessimism.

Stay in the sunshine : ) friend.

Considering that one of my threads was locked, due to some of the members that could not tolerate the Truth, it seemed as if it were a possibility. Not that unlikely, forgive me.
