Thanks for that...Shame, 'appy! I've lasted longer on here than with you on Facewank! Hope the do55ies are fine?
So Mods/Owners etc...Why did you delete the whole of the Bum Sex Thread bearing in mind this is Flushed and the Picture was very Cultural to the History of the Ottoman Empire?
Or did I miss something?

I didn't delete anything. I will check with Proboards and let you know.

Please do check as something is certainly ami55....
(And please don't come back and blame Proboards in any way - as though they have a Bum Sex Filter....)

Grecian, if you or anyone else who posted on the bum sex thread click on the 'Participated' button (top right corner of the page), does it show the bum sex thread there? Do you remember approximately when you started the thread? Was the thread actually titled 'bum sex'?
I've looked through the Meeting Pot security logs and it doesn't have a record of that thread being deleted. Mods didn't receive any notification that it was deleted by Proboards staff either. I have messaged proboards to ask if they did perhaps delete it and we are not informed. I am otherwise stumped.

Proboards staff have replied and told me that they would not delete a thread without first advising the mods. We did not get any notification, hence it is unlikely that proboards removed the thread. Neither theklia nor I deleted the thread either and nobody else (except perhaps yourself - can't check as my account has full admin abilities) has the ability to delete your thread.

I have also contacted the Proboards Abuse department separately just now to check if the thread was reported to them and they took action and for some reason we were not notified. Will let you know once I hear back from them.

Thanks for the Smacker there, 'appy and hope you are well - and the do55ies!
WOW! Too much information there, Lumi, and thanks...This is very interesting!
I started the thread maybe 2 months ago when I was bored as peps had his, normal, weekend off and, it being Flushed, I just asked Poster's thoughts on Anal Sex - My mum said it would be a good topic to raise...
It stagnated as everyone was too coy to 'really' reply butt(!) then I seem to remember that ******* Posted a picture with good intent suggesting that said Laydee was enjoying said sex act and I replied it looked more like Rape...
Then it went.
I understand that a Poster did post the following link as a picture and then it was zapped.
(LOOK AWAY NOW IF YOU ARE EASILY OFFENDED!)
***image deleted by mod as it breaks Proboards terms of service***
It would certainly be a first for one of my OP's to be Zapped by the an Internet Forum Provider and not the actual Mods on their site!
Thanks again for looking into it and it will be interesting what they come up with..

Thanks for the details, Grecian. Unfortunately the image had to be removed from your post above as it was a violation of the terms of service proboards has set out and could result in the forum being shut down.

Post by Grecian on Jul 27, 2014 22:30:08 GMT 2
Are you sure?
Can you please post a link to said "terms of service" that Pro Boards feel the need to threaten the need to close down a site like The Meeting Pot if some daft Poster posts the following image?
At the moment, I think that either you or Pro Boards are making this Shite up, to be honest...

I will post a link to the ToS tomorrow when on the computer (using phone now). You can also find them very easily yourself by google searching.

Grecian, put on your big girls panties and get over it.
Firstly no-one OWNS this site, it was created for this community and is owned by this community.
Secondly, when HT and I were still mods we did get warnings on certain photos, your awful profile pic with the big testicles was one that was deemed inappropriate.
Please remember this world does not revolve around you and hardly anyone here takes much notice of you and would have absolutely no reason whatsover to delete your post just to get you in Geeky 'mood' which you think is funny and all that but we are all a bit over it, tbh.
Have a super awesome day

Here's a link to the terms of service. Term 18 on objectionable content probably best explains why the image you posted was breaking the terms. Please keep these terms in mind when posting. Thanks

eff me - this has dra55ed a few out of the woodwork! ..as intended.. Blackpearl? What does a 'Community' mean? That's a bit Precious you saying that. I thought the poor chap with Elephantitus Bollocks was actulally funny! I've had an 'awesome day', thanks... It's a Fucking Social Network Forum last I looked and being on Flushed you can post away to your heart's content with no fear of reprisals...until now.. Term 18 is One Heap of Shite as a T&C - who decides that?? Do Pro Borads look at EVERY Post on their myriad of Boards?? I don't think so... This is all about Freedom of Speech and Subjective views...Who is to say what is "obscene, lewd, lascivious, filthy, or pornographic", eh? A Francis Bacon - probably England's finest Artist? Maybe a Lucian Freud - "he was widely considered the pre-eminent British artist of his time".. So - Bottom Line? It's Pro Boards that Look at this site and deemed the Ottoman Empire Homosexual Train to be "obscene, lewd, lascivious, filthy, or pornographic"? If so, they really should sit down and have a word with themselves...

Oh, as a slight aside, I prefer JMW Turner to Francis Bacon but it's all about opinions...

Ah, the fighting temeraire. That's my favourite painting Geeky. It'd look lovely above my fireplace.

Hurrah! But you are slightly wrong, Grumpers..... It would look soooo much better above MY Fireplace! Can you hazard a guess on how much the Original would actually cost to buy should it come on the open market?...£50M? £100m? It is in The Tate, last I saw.... I have a great (In my opinion) Print above my fireplace at the moment that I do often refer to when the TV is boring and it does take me to 'Pictures' and thoughts like any good piece of Art should... I do like the following even though it is Napoleon...The Limpet in the foreground you will only see if you go and see the Original...

what's the story of that one welle.......(I think Grecian just got told) Wino, it's art. Looks to me like 2 stylized depictions of Greek amphores. Alternatively of course it is vaguely reminiscent of a previous avatar. I like the general direction of art this thread has taken.

Ha welle.....I look at it from a construction point of view how did they get those 2 things to stand upright and not fall over...........the rest is just 'art'

Post by Grecian on Jul 31, 2014 20:42:41 GMT 2
But Sculpture as Art has construction as one of its main elements?
The Angel of the North, anyone?
In fact, most of the Sculptures and Sculptors I recognice has a very high part of Construction in their Art..
Hepworth. Moore and Gabo?
It's certainly a good shift, Welle, but I am still waiting for a reply from The Mods and/or Proboards...
