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. ??????
