  So if I don't like what someone says I can just hit report TOU and they get banned?! That seems like such crap to me. I wasn't a member during all the stuff that went down a few months ago so I'm pretty new to all of this but I have never seen anything run this way. I may not agree with things that are said sometimes or the way they are said but to put a censor on someone so no one can see what they are writing and then to ban them on top of it is so beyond...I don't even know...I'm speechless right now.

  This "community" is going downhill really fast. I can't believe all of those people have gotten banned. If you don't like what someone has to say, ignore it-it's really not that hard

  I noticed this too but I assumed the one I couldn't see put me on ignore. Maybe not though. Weird!

  But if they put you on ignore wouldn't it be the otherway? You can see their post but they can't see yours?

  I feel like we should tag a mod and just ask them to clear up this confusion?

  I don't know how it works. I figured if they put me on ignore I wouldn't be able to see their posts and they wouldn't be able to see mine. Like it would go both ways? But I guess that's not it because no one else can see them either.

  See, like everyone can see that Madisonpenny is loving a ton of posts right? But you can't actually see any comments she's made, and she had made some.

  That's pure torture!
  

  
  
  
  Yea and in her threads she's given some great advice, she's expressed sympathy to someone who experienced a loss today and she's replying to this thread, but no one can see them.

  @Rhill30 I believe they are just censored and not technically banned. I misunderstood knittingmama when I messaged her back. Which I'm not even sure how to react that. How can they just put a censor on someone?! And she said they weren't even told about it and had to find out on their own or something. Alls I know is I'm pretty disgusted how TB is handling this situation and not entirely sure I'm sticking around much longer if this is how it's going to be. I can't even wrap my head around this right now to be honest. I personally haven't been on many forums but the ones I have been on I've never seen them run this way.

  I think it's bullshit members are being censored! There was a post that was quickly deleted that called out the Mods and I agree they have alot to answer for at this point... deleting our threads, the ease with which people seem to be banned and now censoring us? How are we suppose to have real conversations if we are all afraid or being banned or censored? Utter bullshit!

  Edit:saying 54 replies actually seeing about half of that!

  The bump is getting exactly what they wanted. They don't want engaging discussion. They want forums full of people they can sell their bullshit too.

  I'm on my computer and still not seeing anything Madison or Knitting are posting and I've even tried clearing my cache and cookies. They are definetely being censored.

  Huh, well this is quite strange. I wonder if it's just a temporary thing? I guess I would have never noticed anyone missing if others didn't point it out.

  Thank you for sharing. What makes me sad is all of their helpful and genuinely caring posts, apparently those meant nothing to the mods.

  I had wondered the same thing. I posted a thread and it told me @knittingmama had commented on it but then it didn't show up. I was dissapointed because I've liked her points of view and I was curious as to what she had to say. I really like @madisonpenny and her comments too! They're honest and funny. Pretty shady.

  If you go to their profile and view what they've commented on you can still see what they're posting.

  That is what happens when the bump marks you as a troll. This is what the bump wanted when they got rid of the bad apples. It is so sad that they can't take a little bit of free thinking. It all has to be rainbows and glitter.

  Ladies, if you have anything to say to knitting or Madison, they can receive PMs, they are also reading what your writing. I'm sure the mods are too. Don't be shy to say how you feel about this. I for one feel like we need a new mod to overview our board. I think grudges have been made and I think our mod has decided to go after specific members whether deserved or not. I'm fully expecting this thread to become 'closed' or deleted now that I've said that.

  I think it's absolutely ridiculous that the admins haven't responded to any if their messages to let them know what's going on, to let them know if this is temporary or anything, even after trying to contact them. The only reason they found out something was going on is because no one was replying to their posts. I personally think they deserve answers NOW!!

  I'm so confused! How can TB censor a poster? Did I sign on to that being okay somewhere when I made this account? I wanted our issues to get ironed out, but not like this, this is ridiculous. @hatchback4g I wrote the thread (that was deleted in probably 2 minutes) calling out our admins, and was sent a generic PM saying that a ban is between TB and that user but "if I have questions about a warning I got or any other questions, PM me!" I haven't gotten any warnings, so it wasn't even situation- specific. Can @Madisonpenny or @knittingmama start a thread? If they tagged an admin, the thread would be deleted but I'm sure they'd get a reply. Though it may make the trouble worse

  Yes I keep seeing knittingmama commenting but still don't see anything. Such crap! I think people deserve an explanation. Especially the ones being censored.
