... but deleting it without any given explanation, and without even notifying its creator is another thing entirely.
The censorship that has insidiously become the norm at IW (even pms are censored now for f*ck's sake!) sickens me to the core. 'Family' forum? What sort of weirdo, conservative, sexually repressed, everything-taboo family are we talking about here? I know that in my family we swear, and discuss religion and talk about sex as freely as any other conversation topic. I have absolutely no desire to be part of this creepy 'family' any longer, or at least I have no desire to be under the constant supervision and scrutiny of its overbearing and gormless chaperones. See ya.

PM's are censored ??? Does that mean that a third party gets to read what you say in a PRIVATE message ?

No, he means that if you say f**k a few asterisks are added.

I have no idea why I am even bothering with this one.
It was reported that a thread made by Dace contained explicit use of language that we will not allow here. A moderator tried to clean it up, but the forum bugged out some how and would not allow the moderator to even access the edit function of the post. This has happened a few other times before, when the edit feature shows only a blank screen or part of the message, and the unseen part is not reachable. So there was no way to apply the soap to the dirty mouths that needed it. What was to be done? When Ziroc tried resetting the language editing feature to blank out the use of the foul words, it did not work. His only option was to delete the thread, obviously because there was a bug in the thing that would not allow even the webmaster to remove the offenciveness from it. What a pathetic attempt this rant thread is at begging for attention. Are you that lonely?
