Why Move A Radio Topic To Off The Air

Recently posted a topic about an offensive and often run commercial for Novartis Pharmacueticals. Now, it is moved to Off The Air. This is not an off the air topic it is about something that is currently On The Air.

Please explain. Thanks.

Yeah, because I like making posts that nobody will read.

Exactly. Perhaps, they don't want to offend a commercial sponsor. My comments had nothing to do with the quality of the pharmacuetical which is apparently saving lives but of the tone and content of the commercial which was and is extremely offensive.

Re: Ditto

Also, one poster was noting about abrasive commercials on WZLX - but I guess that doesn't belong on a "Boston" board.

Ahh, the internet. No independent thought wanted. It was interesting to hear the opponent of Mayor Menino's advertisement on Boston Progressive Talk today,
a nice shake up of the mundane - but I can't even remember her name - so maybe she should just repeat her name for 30 seconds.

Heck, Louise Day Hicks has more name recognition than Mayor Tom's "opponent"

Sure, that's easy.

1. This is the Boston Radio-Info board. Your topic had nothing to do with Boston Radio, so he moved it, as he should have. You can post whatever you want, so long as it pertains to Boston radio. It didn't, and so he moved it wherever he wanted, just as he is allowed to do.

2. Rule 5, states very clearly, in nice bold black and blue, though shalt not complain about the moderator's decision, which you just did.

So there.
 
Re: Ditto

Are you guys delusional schitzophrenics?

The post was MOVED...not deleted.

Get over yourselves for thinking you are Boston's radio authority, or even the Internet authority. It's getting old.<P ID="signature">______________

If the original poster had mentioned WZLX perhaps you might be making a point.

In any event, both you fccfight (aka millenium) and Stenopad (aka parklane) shouldn't even be posting anything on the Boston board, as you've both been banned. As such, you've got a lot of nerve posting complaints about what gets posted and what doesn't.
