How come the two questions I had asked yesterday-Aug, 26, 07 were deleted?

My first question was under the topic of "Has anyone ever thought about this before?'
and my second question topic was "What the heck are "put" options?"

How come they were both deleted? Why not just moved? Was something about these questions wrong to ask? If so, why?

I would greatly appreciate an answer!

I got to read one of the posts didnt look to see if it was relocated, and may have been (put options). yes censorship is a part of this forum and sometimes needs to be.
it is not an unmoderated forum, there ARE political trolls and disinfo artists.
it doesnt mean your post was deleted if you cant find it, its a big forum already. but may have been relocated to a more appropriate place so it doesnt get buried away in a huge general forum thread, or if a common question that is answered often, tossed aside to be answered again and again later...

the object in dismissing blatant trolls and disinfo artists is to keep the focus of the forum on the real issues. were not into "censoring" good questions or truth.

No, sorry, but they were both deleted, as I did searches to see if they had indeed been moved/relocated.

 So, are you saying that my questions that I had asked as an honest citizen, was seen as me being a troll? Is that what your saying? Or are you saying that some of the "Moderators" on this board are trolls? If that's the case, why or how did they become Moderators?

 I'm not a troll, or a person who believes in misinformation. I'm a vet of the US Army who is fully awake to whats been happening in our Country and across the world by very evil people, for a long time now. I'm a Christian in my heart, and a Constitutionalist. I'm here to teach people about survival and to learn as much as I can from others on this forum, which is why I asked the questions that I did. Is it because I'm a newbie to this board? There are lots of newbies on this board and I haven't seen their posts/topics deleted, so why were mine? I can fully understand deleting posts/topics that have alot of blatant cuss words, or misinformation in them, or posts that flame others. None of my posts have any of that!

 I just want answers to these questions, instead of "tip toeing thru the tulips" type of answers! What ever happened to Freedom Of Speech, that is supposedly allowed on this forum? It's bad enough that censorship is everywhere else these days, but to be allowed on THIS forum? That disgusts me greatly!

 I demand answers, not just for myself, but for all who come to this Forum in search of Truth, good answers and ideas on how to fight the NWO, ideas to help Ron Paul get elected, real information on what all the NWO is doing against the people, etc...

http://forum.prisonplanet.com/index.php?topic=3210.msg12767#msg12767

found question about put options.

http://forum.prisonplanet.com/index.php?topic=3208.msg12797#msg12797

found question "has anybody thought of this."

look where relocated to.. may be more appropratly placed?
-is subject to opinion too maybe

as far as being disgusted with the forum, hollering about censorship,
or being accusatory of the moderators.. maybe you'll see it differently
giving it some time.. and maybe not hey.

Hmmmm, ok, so you found them.

 How come the search feature apparently doesn't work for me then? Am I blocked?
I notice I'm blocked from reading certain posts on locked topics too, why is this?

 Ok, I will take back what I said about censorship, but I thought I had been censored, cause after performing 30-40 searches, nothing came up for me.

Any help in answering these new questions would greatly be appreciated, and thanks for the answers already from the above questions.

I hadnt used the search feature much, but have maybe noticed it will look by keyword within the subforum or child board you're in and starting from.

might be helpful on the one part anyhow.

Well, glad that got cleared up. In the process, you do bring up some very valid points RWS.

I tend to agree that some posts seem to be in need of "censorship"; we need to keep it all in perspective. Having been a moderator myself before in another forum, I totally understand the difficulties in deciding when to make the tough call. It must be done though to maintain the peace, and to attempt to keep dialog on topic. It's an ugly, thankless job, but...

I feel your pain RWS! I never have had much luck using forum search features! Pesky technology.

When in politics and faced with two men who are both evil, do you choose the lesser of those two evils? NO! Execute them both and find someone who is *not* evil.

You have to be on the main page to search all the posts.  If you do it in a room it will only search posts in that room.

trolls and disinofo creeps seem to end up being mistakenly average people who post here sometimes.  ANd they dont know that some mods here seem to mistake many for this kind of behavior.  Which is giving the forum a bad name.

Well, so far , thanks for all the answers, and sorry for jumping the gun a bit.

 Ummm, what about this question tho...
I notice I'm blocked from reading certain posts on locked topics too, why is this?

Just Curious!
Thx,
