That's one of the many wonderful things about HiveWire.
It's a shame when a site (or a government) shuts down discussion just because it's uncomfortable for them or it doesn't reflect the image they are trying to promote. Of course, shutting down discussions tends to do far more damage to that image than allowing the discussion to run its course. Eventually, we do get tired of a discussion and move on to something far more interesting.

Yes, but the individuals that mentioned this seem to believe that comments that aren't constructive or could be construed as negative should be suppressed like is commonly done on the DAZ3D forums.
True, and that more or less proves my point; they let how their forums are run close their mind to any other way to do that.
Oh I've done that as well, which is why I usually read it twice before posting, and then again after I've posted it.

It's natural to read what should be there, rather than what IS there. The way to avoid that is to simply read the text backward - that prevents reading context.

Yeah, I do my best to tame the typo monster myself.
Sorry, but I believe in free speech unless, of course, it's outright negative and damaging. Anyone can construe something someone else wrote as being negative, when it really isn't. It's one of the reasons why written words on a forum are often misconstrued. The person reading them read something into them which the original poster hadn't meant. We can't read other people's minds to know exactly what they're thinking, and certainly not through an Internet connection. I think there are folks who just love to be contrary, and have to complain about everything. I generally just ignore them.
Interesting, I never would've thought of doing that.

It's a professional proofreader trick.

You mean, like using "there isn't any typos" , instead of "there aren't any typos"?Well, one of the other forum moderators fixed the typo. I'm always surprised when someone posting to a forum doesn't read their post to make sure there isn't any typos. I miss them every now and then, but rarely. I guess I'm just anal about such things. Working for lawyers for 40 years drummed it into my head, and I suppose it just became automatic.

Indeed there were.
Oh how it did. And my, how things have changed. Very sad to hear this news, but not at all surprised. Just sorry it had to be so quick.
Those were the good old days. I remember when Platinum club first started. I was a PA there from 2002 until I officially bowed out in 2014 (though I hadn't been real active after 2009). My my my how things have changed. 8-(

I had to leave before then. I was losing money every month. I pretty much had everything that was there.
Every now and then I have a moment of weakness when I think about going back there. But then things like this happen. 8-(

The typo monster strikes again. Grammarly is free in its basic form, and corrects typos, misspells and grammar as you go along. In fact, it's doing it right now and has informed me that I've made three errors so far (2 spelling errors and one badly chosen word!) The best part is it doesn't delete posts just because they don't happen to comply with its self-image!
