@ghost-of-a-duke saidgoad are you sure it wasn't an alien? 😛 🙂
Of course it was removed by a moderator. It wasn't removed by aliens.
But it takes an alerter to bring it to their attention. (And only one that I saw).
All a poster can do is alert said post can't remove it, although you guys have been working on trying to have that implemented that poster could remove a post from a thread they started....We know the fun there would be with that unless a Moderator were in involved who was not bias, as the OP would be.
A poster can now remove their own post....LOL....Sometime I do it so it is up just long enough for some to see then remove it.

@divegeester saidTo his credit, FMF has rebuffed all recent attempts by Rusty for befriendment. This has both confused and irked Rusty.

@divegeester saidIn order to give unjustified thumbs - down you have to be alert. And there seem to be a few lerts in these forums nowadays.

So let's define one … “a Lert is a person who doesn't go to work because of a rational fear of contamination by deadly viruses for which no vaccine is known.

@very-rusty saidI think “twat”, is spot on.

@divegeester
It appears that word gets auto alerted in case you think I may have alerted it! Of course I am not certain on that someone may have alerted it. Quite obvious to me that lert doesn't stand for what you think it does in French.

@very-rusty saidI think “TWAT” is the perfect adjective for the person, who with Machiavellian intent, alerted the OP of this thread.

@divegeester
Machiavellianism in psychology refers to a personality trait which sees a person so focused on their own interests they will manipulate, deceive, and exploit others to achieve their goals. ... By the late 16th century “Machiavellianism” became a popular word to describe the art of being deceptive to get ahead.
LOL...Every time you use that word it auto alerts.....funny stuff!
