When I first posted on this thread I didn't realise it was going to turn into a crap on film-talk fest. I was pissed that I was banned for what I felt was an unjust reason but hey it's Ed's board he can do what he wants and I still think that it is a good board with some really good posters.
However I'm pretty sure I would have left voluntarily after seeing the way the forum is going. I like going to place where you can discuss films but I films aren't my entire life. What I did like was discussing other subjects with people who share similar interests but offer up different points of view on certain things. There was a good discussion between me NBT and SirM that wasn't offensive or flaming but was closed because the topic was too political. That wasn't what really bothered me though, what was the last straw for me was the total deletion of posts because one person didn't like them. I don't mind if something is offensive to get a Deleted by Mod but to erase them completely and then ban someone for mentioning the deleted threads is too much for me.
Sorry just a little venting. Film-talk is a decent board but I am really glad I found this one (especially since it seems the best posters from the other board are here)
