Hey sorry!!!!

I made a thoughtful post today. and then It dissappeared after a while. How would you feel about it? I was confused at first.

I thought carefully about my words, making sure they didn't attack anyone or cross forum lines. I wanted to express that some times the truth is unpleasant but we still can face it.

Also there are important ideals ( like community, compassion, & forgivness,) that no form of censorship, mockery, editing, or warning labels can destroy because they exist in our hearts.

I don't know if I failed to express myself in an unoffensive way or what? I did recieve a PM which suggested I did indeed fail. I cannot look back now myself and consider because the post is gone.

So to anyone else who read my post before it was deleted and thought I was attacking them for being hurt at the picture joke- I apologize for the misunderstanding.
While I hate the idea of any entity censored my words, it seems to be for the better in this instance.

Peace,

Scott

I think it's not so much that any of your words were offensive and more likely due to the fact that your post slipped in just after Cloudy declared the thread closed, and just before the close officially took effect.

You are probably right. I dont want to debate or contest the mod decisions though. Thanks!!! [img]smile.gif[/img]

Yup, he's right, Chewie. I was in process of closing it when your post got in and I saw it after locking the thread, so removed it. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Of course Mems posted after the lock too, but he's got those silly hammer things in his avatar....
