Have none of you ever spoken about an event thats past? The whole thing stinks slightly of cancel culture and wokeism where i must only post what you approve based on your sensibilities.

If thats the world you want to live in so be it but personally I don't want my life edited or censored based on someone elses unwanted opinion.

If I am being to sensitive let me know and I will go?

Stop being a drama queen, jeez. SiliconLife nailed it. Wokeism? Come on, lol.

First of all, we don't even have a "rule" forbidding posting on old topics, and people randomly do it when they have something interesting to add on an old topic. No issue at all when it's bumped up for a sensible reason. Heck, it often names more sense to bump up an old topic if you have something to say about it rather than just starting a whole new topic about the same thing.

The reason you've been prevented numerous times from doing it is because it almost counts as "spam."

Can you imagine if we allowed everyone to run around posting on every topic from 2014 saying "very interesting, thanks for posting" and "thanks for sharing" "that's interesting" and "thanks for sharing" on every old topic?

Well, that was basically what you were doing. Not to the same degree as my example, but just clogging up the forum while adding nothing of substance.

And we don't have a long list of rules, as we rely on members to use common sense, and it largely works.

As an example of one of your posts that wasn't approved, someone was asking for a TukTuk back in 2022. Almost a full year later you bump it, basically saying "try Facebook."

Surely you can see why it's not ideal to let you or anyone go around bumping up old topics for basically no reason at all.

And again, that's just a screenshot of one random example of you bumping an old topic and adding basically nothing.

Anyways, you requested to be taken off of Mod Preview, and we granted your request to roam freely on here about a month ago, so I feel you're trolling a bit to say you're still feeling censored or that you think cancel culture is to blame, lol.

So please, try to use a bit more common sense if you plan to stick around. Nobody is trying to censor you and the guy standing outside your house in a trenchcoat with an earpiece is just waiting for a bus and listening to music on his AirPods.

you may comsider "closing - read only" certain threads to prevent them from beeing bumped?
