OK guys, I know I am going to take a lot of flack for this, as I have never deleted a thread in the year of owning this site. I hope you all know that I don't delete anything just because someone may be offended, or because I disagree with the topic, or any other reason of censure.
I have deleted the "Big Shooter" thread.
When a thread brings in other people, even if those images and people are part of the web world, I have to make the hard decision of whether or not that is something I want happening on our site.
In this case, I have made the decision that the deleted thread had involved people who have not been on this site and the implications to them, whether true or not, and could affect them and their image or businesses.
I am sure many will disagree. And for that, I am prepared to take the heat. I guess that comes with owning the forum.
Hopefully all of you know me well enough to understand that I have stuggled with this issue before making this decision.
