Why would a moderator remove a cable review?


I put together what I thought was thorough review of the newest Cerious Technologies line of cables and it was just removed by a moderator for:

“Content may be removed for one or more of these reasons:

  • It looked like spam
  • It was abusive towards another member
  • It depicts explicit and/or violent content
  • It contains profanity

Please make sure your submissions comply with our guidelines”
 

I don’t see where I violated any of the stated policy.

I doubt they deleted it because of income conflicts. If that was the case, they’d be deleting MANY posts.

In addition to the 4 Guidelines above, it would be helpful if Audiogon added the others they are using as a basis for deleting posts.  Of course, they can do what they want.  But, if posters were aware of the other, as yet unspecified Guidelines,  they may frame the posts differently - to avoid removal.

Sometimes posts have good information that mysteriously disappears.

Of course some posts clearly warrant removal - the posters know it up front.  That won't stop.

 

Funny that political comments are barred because they are not related to audio and also inflammatory ( I can understand that) but I see political ads on Audiogon. ??????

😏 Mod was wired, strung out, or both....

That, and the 'cable thang' is just getting too esoteric to be rational anymore, imho...

To paraphrase LOTR lore, "One wire to bind them...." ;)
