I am having fun but don't want to get points

I am having a good time posting hee, and yet . . .Lately (this week) I have oarticipated in two threads that have disapeared right after Iposted. In one, the thread starter questioned just how free we were in the USA. there were a few other responses and then I chimed in with a review of the Bill Of Rights and how other countries stack up. I thought my respons was civil and well reasoned. When I checked back later, the whole thread was gone.

The latest case was today. In a thread still on the board, the thread starter asked what skills we learned from our parents. I submitted a tongue in cheek bullet-pointed (conceptual pun) list of things to do when shooting a deer rifle. There was an equally flipant response and I made a good natured rebutal. When I checked a few minutes later, the last three posts were gone.

I am not complaining that this is in any way unfair . . .I just want o be sure that I am posting within the accepted guidlines of this website. Please let me know how I may be q compliant poster in the future.

Seems like you participated in the National sector of the site, therefore the high amount of people posting bumps threads up and down very quick. As far as points go if you stick with these guidelines you shouldnt have a problem.

Mojojo, thanks.
The same thing happened to me today and my post was removed. I don't think all of the guidelines are listed that we need to follow. I didn't see anything in those guidelines that was the same reason I was given for it being removed.

Well since I did not break any rules, I will make the post again.
