Default Strange notice!

I tried to access a thread I made earlier in the Pub, and got the following notice ..


Billydean, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:
  1. Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
  2. If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.


Surely we're allowed to discuss religion on here?

Sounds like the thread has been removed, politics and religion are touchy areas, site policies are invoked if it is deemed inappropriate.

It is, but I'm sure there are thousands of other Forums that you can discuss religion and politics on. Most of the members come on here to get away from that crap...................

And thousands of others where you're treated like an adult, and deleted threads are explained, with a reason given?

A quick search shows dozens of posts about religion and politics, so that obviously wasn't the reason, I expect the person who deleted my thread was probably a catholic then.

You've asked them all, have you? Stop talking crap, if you've got nothing sensible to say, post somewhere else.

Its a car forum. You don't post religious crap.
You actually agreed to it in the terms and conditions when you signed up.
Looks like you better go knocking on doors to spread the good word..............................................

Default Re: Strange notice!

Let's clear this up so we can move on. Yes it appears that you tried to view a thread that had been removed for whatever reason.

As per this sites Terms and Conditions that you do agree to when you sign up:

In short, the following things are not permitted:
1. Posts about or containing references to: religion, race, politics, sensitive or controversial subjects except at the discretion of the admin team.

As you have also asked in your first post "surely we're allowed to talk about religion on here". I have bolded it to make it clear.

Still not happy? PM an admin - russellw, Auslandau, wulos or Spoolman.

Cheers
Col
