I am again being moderated. Could the moderators please explain what the issue is with my simple, non-controversial technical questions ???

Some of my initial posts were also moderated, and others weren't. I read in another thread which stated that Beoworld has some automatic algorithms which search for keywords / phrases which kick some posts into moderation (to prevent spam, etc). Your post may have been caught, as have some of mine, too. Not just initial posts, but replies as well.

No idea - nothing personal I am sure - just a computer with a dream of taking over the world!!

Hopefully the filtering utility spits out a report (or at least has the data) that would enable Keith to give us guidelines (eg do not mention the place where you prepare food in your title) or even better tune algorithms so that BL2 discussions about best bang for the buck are acceptable.

( these were perhaps hypothetical examples )

I'm afraid I'm recovering from the BeoVirus. Sad

Nothing personal indeed - and no filters running astray in this case.

Technical questions are more than welcome.
I deleted your post, beginning with "I need a replacement for the" ... some part.
This is seen as a wanted ad, for which we require a membership level of minimum silver.

Martin,

Thanks for your answer. This was absolutely not the intention but I appreciate your explanation. I will be more careful with wording in the future. However I would have appreciated that you delete the sentence you did not like instead of the whole thread, which was non-controversial and legitimate.

Best regards, js

I understand and agree, but your post was in fact already answered and the answer acknowledged by you.
Besides, you already posted a new, somewhat similar, thread.
