I am a little concerned

That may be a valid concern, but I am not seeing a lot of consistency on this site lately. This conversation was not much different than a conversation on the football board several weeks ago and that was not deleted. There were a couple of threads on the basketball side that were closed and in one of them all that took place were a disagreement over a philosophy. I read this board and people get personal and nothing is done. It seems like there is not set standard of what is wrong and what is allowed. I do not post here very often but I read this place from time to time. It also seems like we are losing a lot of people that used to frequent the board because of many of these issues. At some point this place is not going to be worth the trouble. Garth left several months ago and a lot of this was based on things the moderators could have solved. Maybe I should stay away as well. In officiating we are looking for some level of consistency and right now we are not getting it from the people that run the board.

PS2MAN,
Each forum has a different personality.
Thus, each will be moderated differently.

Apparently, face guarding is also called differently.

You are probably right. The only issue is the very same person did the closing or deleting of discussions. Maybe he was having a bad day as started earlier.

It is a trying time, but he'll make it.
