a small rant to the mods on this here board

i've come on here to have a giggle at the hmv scam thread again and it's gone.
i can understand when threads get deleted because they are pure tripe, but that was comedy gold. agglee is a comic genius.
i am bitterly disappointed at this development and was looking forward to the pictorial evidence of agglee's one-man (if you discount his carer) crusade against the tyrannical scam machine that he perceives is hmv.
the mods normally do sterling work, but on this occasion, you got it wrong.
to whomever reported it for deletion, i hope you hang your head in shame. you've deprived the internet of one more idiot to point and laugh at

it's spelt d-e-f-i-n-i-t-e-l-y
there - 'in or at that place'
their - 'owned by them'
they're - 'they are'
it's bought not brought (i just bought my chicken a suit from that new shop for £6.34)

Here here i was also looking forward to the response he would have supposedly got from TS.
It was comedy gold, possibly tops the egg size, innocent smoothie and sainsburys basics bread threads0 -

Och. I ran up town to get my hair cut-logged in to see what had happened when he went to the store, and it's been deleted!:(
I'm on holiday from work this week, and it was fairly brightening up my days.
As DC and James said- here's hoping he comes back with the result.. or maybe he'll start screaming because MSE is a 'scam' and he used up all his precious energy typing all that guff-only to have some inconsiderate mod delete his well thought out responses!:DRuaridh Armstrong-missing since 05/11/11. Come home old boy-we miss you x

Why, does Martin pay you the more stars you have or something? Is this a money making scheme I hadn't heard of?

he'll come on saying mse is in cahoots with hmv when he finds the thread was removed0 -
lol no you dont get paid but its annoying if you've put 10 or so posts in a thread to see it deleted, I'd rather they just closed the thread so no one can post in it anymore rather than deleting the whole thing.0
