When I said something about it, he told me I was "pouting" and I should find another forum. I thought that was a little rude but hey maybe he was being "sarcastic" lol.

I'm starting to think you might be one of the folks the OP is talking about...
You seem to have left out quite a bit of our conversation... I thought you were the type of person that wanted to expose "both sides" of the debate.
So in the interest of fairness here's my side.
I made a post saying there had been some clean up in a politically oriented thread. And I (in my own opinion) politely asked for some understanding from anyone who had posts deleted and to please not take it personally. I issued no warnings, infractions or bans. The thread was on a good track and I felt it was worth the risk to leave it open.
The posts, more than yours, that I deleted were of the kind that usually bring in the less than mature who then get the thread closed. However I left your's and other posts quoted in the thread. I didn't silence you or anyone else. I left your comments just not in the form of a post that could be quoted.
And for the record the post I deleted that I left quoted, contained a video from the most polarizing person in all of American politics/documentaries Michael Moore. The fact that I left it up at all should show at least some willingness on my part to keep the debate open. As he is well known for enraging his opposition. And there are plenty those here who can't stand him as I'm sure you know.
I think it's pretty easy to imagine the response he gets and how that would lead to the end of the thread if allowed to be used as a launching pad for those unable to be mature...
All of this was a judgment call on my part. I saw potential for disaster so I attempted to avoid it... We/I do overreact/overprotect the site at times. All I can do for that is apologize. I was hoping all would be reasonable an I almost got my wish. Save one... You.
You seem to want a special set of rules that only apply to you. You seem to want special consideration... I'm not arrogant enough to think I can apply the rules evenly to 60K people... I wish I was that good but I'm not.
Once thing to note, We don't allow threads on camaro5 bashing other sites.
FWIW.

This rumor pops up every now and then...
We don't get paid. The only money I've or any of us have gotten from the owner of Camaro5 is reimbursement for expenses incurred for organizing/running the fest.
Again FWIW

This is probably our biggest failure as staff here. We used to be able to bump threads and point people who may be able to help to threads that are asking for it...
We just don't see them as much as we used to.
I wish there was a quick way to fix that.
