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.

@lancelock; Have you emailed Tammy and asked her what happened and why?

I for one would be curious???

I have had many posts removed also. Doesn’t seem to be much rhyme or reason, other than overactive moderators...

Combined with my positive experience with Cerious, your review moved me to order a new digital cable from Bob.  So thanks!

moderators can be overwhelmed, sometimes they will delete something simply because it is requested by someone to do so... they often can’t get into thinking about things too deeply, too much, kind of a better safe than sorry approach

as users here, i think most of us don’t appreciate how much cr#p tammy and her colleagues have to deal with

Moderators overwhelmed? Come on, on this site it can't be too hard.

I think because the pricing was mentioned and the website, Audiogon thought they may be cut out of sales and deleted the thread.
