Please send me a PM explaining why you have deleted TWO of my threads. Now, please answer this thread without deleting it, unless you want me to make a post like this every day. All I'm asking for is a little courtesy.
For the record, the second thread I've now had deleted was one asking why another thread of mine(a humorous complaint about the EU JTL release date) had been deleted. Not only have they not replied to it, but they have deleted it. Not very polite.

I would imagine because its being negative against the Expansion. SOE really needs JTLS to go gold- and I would imagine the Forum Mods are being instructed to keep the negativity twoards the launch at a minimum.

If they wanted to keep negativity at a minimum, they should have thought about that BEFORE launch and actually spent more time listening to beta testers

yea, they've been a little harsh in here lately.
I've seen some threads get locked with no explanation as well. Usu. when issues that cannot be fixed without serious issues are discussed. For example: we could eliminate the UK problem by letting the existing customers pay for a jtl key directly from SOE (no box) since the game is already on your computer....
For some reason (See contracts) they are unable to take this logical step.
I wish they would just tell us the reason. Even with a name not listed on any of the trackers so we don't keep asking the questions. This would be the respectable solution.

It's keeping someone in a job ... look at it that way
Censorship in here is a joke. They know what they have to do to make the complaints go away ... we're waiting (as usual).

Hmmm....looking at your post count and your title, you should know that the mods do very rarely explain why a post has been deleted. Also you should know that threads why a post has been deleted will be deleted as well. Garva has stated this numerous times.
Oh well...

And there wont be any.
Please take the time and read the post by Tiggs in the Announcements forum. There's a special post what questions the devs will not answer.
I'm terribly sorry, but this thread is one of those.

Perfect, They can lock the tread and refer us to the Tiggs post. That doesn't seem unreasonable to me. My concern is how "inappropriate" posts/threads are dealt with. I understand that there are issues that soe is unable to deal with, thus making discussion on the matter unproductive.

I feel that we were treated with respect in the Beta forums. I think that would go a long way out here. It's not hard to tell us why things are the way they are. I know some threads get out of hand and need squished, but at least tell us what's going on.
Sorry, sleepy.
Good night, I'll check this thread tomorrow
