"maybe the 3 reports just flag a thread up to the moderator . But if he sees it is 6 pages long he thinks fk trawling through all that and just hits delete "
seems to be the conclusion. |

I also want it explaining why my long post on the 'Ashes 2013' thread about cricket great Fred Trueman has been pulled since I posted it last night.
Nothing contentious, just chatting with like-minded sports followers about a sportsman - yet it's gone. Funnily enough, Betfair, that's what your customers joined the place for. Pathetic in the extreme that you have chosen to remove the post. |

By:
Evidently not, Kenny.

Could it be that these threads are pulled because interesting discussion distracts us from betting?
|
|
By:
I wouldn't think so, lmfao.
Many's the time chatting about something - especially sports related - leads to further discussions about what is a good bet or not and people sometimes follow another's advice, thus increasing Betfair's coffers. How the hell they can pull a post about a cricketer is just laughable to me. Except it isn't funny at all. |

Betfair Live Chat today:
Johanna : Hello welcome to Betfair you are chatting with Johanna. How can I help? You: hi- I have a query about the forum on the exchange- to whom do I write? Johanna: You would like to e-mail your query or is it perhaps something I can help with through the chat? You: I would like to know why a recent thread- which I started- has disappeared- it appears that the moderators may have taken it down- although that is supposition on my/ others part- it was an interesting discussion with no bad attitude or postings from anyone who contributed and we are all puzzled and a little annoyed Johanna: I see, I would unfortunately not know why it was taken down, but I will be happy to raise i for you if you like? You: please do Johanna: Can I please have your username so we can get back to you? You: just ask the moderators to look at chit chat and they will see a prominent thread asking for their input- my forum username is LMFAO You: thanks for your help- we forumites as a group look forward to finding out what the problem was so we can avoid future action from Betfair |

If any moderators look at this thread, I'd also like to know why the religion one was pulled. Often you guys pull threads that are full of insults or really touchy subjects, and although a lot of us would prefer totally free speech, I undertand why you do it, and fair enough, it's your company (well, not yours personally, but you know what I mean).
This time though, and in Tommy Toes' case above, I really don't understand why the threads/posts were taken down at all. An explanation would be great, so we can understand where the boundaries are and not waste time posting things that are going to disappear. Thanks. |

Agreed, Patra.
Chatting about old sportsmen and their life and times, with no one saying anything untoward at all about, well, anyone/anything, does not necessitate the removal of a post - which took me eons to type! I'd purposely looked up stuff about Fred and Boycott just to see if they were ever on TMS together (re my earlier query on the thread) and had found some good reading about them - which I then c+pd to the thread. For it to be removed is nothing short of absurd nincompoopery. |

A good tip is if anyone posts anything original of any length then they should make a Word copy first so that they can re-post it if it goes missing.

Do you realise how absurd you are Leopard?
Why the hell would anyone, whilst chatting on an internet forum, expressing a view/making comment about something, deem it so 'important' as to make a copy of it before posting - unless they're a total loser? |

Excellent Crisp!!

It must be 'important' because it has got you wound up Tommy.

Up again for Betfair to reply to. |

By:
Agree with Tommy.
A huge amount of bets placed on here are via the forum if you like. Lot of people simply follow others ,just look at the USA racing thread for example.,.If the forum was gone it would cause massive damage to liquidity on that market. Also its been weeks since the live video worked properly for the American stuff. One has to wonder what the hell are betfair up to these days ,its like they are on a suicide mission. |

Baring in mind that it is near enough a year to the day they 'temporarily' stopped new users from registering to the forum, erm, you could be in for a bit of a wait.
