Why

Why do you guys keep taking down anything that talks about Coronavirus? It’s affecting everyone in a major way and we are all adults here so what’s the problem?

 

We arent all adults here- thats the problem

 

Because people act like children and get the threads shut down. Name calling, politics, etc.

 

Or end up with bans

 

Can comments not be deleted? I work at a hospital in Maine and it’s good to see what everyone else has going on. We need some of these posts

 

They can, but after a certain point I’m sure the mods get fed up. There are a million over avenues to discuss the virus and at the end of the day, this is a truck forum.

 

I can't speak for the mods, but I can say that I'm tired of seeing it everywhere we turn. There are plenty of places to get updates on COVID-19. Tacomaworld is a happy place and I'm glad that it isn't inundating me with Coronavirus talk.

 

Seriously, TW should not be your COVID-19 information center

 

Hah. It is?

 

What people don’t understand is that the Mods volunteer to oversee all of the TW Forum.

They maintain high standards and have drawn some lines in the sand about certain topics; politics and enforcing the BST rules among the high maintenance topics.

Members who appreciate this Forum mostly buy in to these standards and when they see an offending post, hit the report button.

Considering TW has over 250K members, even a minuscule fraction reporting an offending post can inundate the Mods with reports they have to clean up. At some point, they pull the plug.

It’s good to be an adult and respect the rules and acknowledge “Yes Virginia, you’re not so special that the rules don’t apply to you.”

 

It's where I go to escape work when at work.....so.....in a way, yes.

 

All good points but the first one was just a bunch of dudes posting a short update about what they were doing it didn’t seem all that offensive but I guess ultimately it’s a truck forum I get that but it seems like a lot of people get a little more butthurt then Necessary

 

Because denial is the first stage of grief.

 

I’m not gonna brush my teeth before bed tonight

 

Not to mention summer teeth.

 

I support the deleting, I'm sick of it, I'd rather see pictures of peoples cats.
