  1. To CSC
  2. How does one go about having their presence here removed.
    I know that I'm not going to get a refund for the life membership
    that I paid for, in good faith before my ship got sold out from under me.
    I only wish to be removed from the membership .
  3. Response

    @SecondMedia owns the site, so please take this request to them

Did you include a picture of yourself so they would know you're not one to be trifled with?
 
I asked the same thing at NCGO- Second Media (Phillip) answered my post with "your request has been rejected".

I then followed up on this and was told to shut up by some of the Mods. I didn't and requested again that my posts be removed and I was perma-banned.

I've not lost any sleep about this, but as a long time supporter and active member, I'd have expected better treatment.

Money makes people do odd things...

I know i posted on this before but anything posted on forums regardless of who owns it it becomes their property. You can be banned or whatever but the presence of who you are and what you posted remains.
 
That whole thing is such a mess. What a shame.

Depends entirely on the terms and conditions of the forum at the time one joins.
 
This again.

Anything you put out on the internet you gave away. You can't take it back.

Of course you can go tell the Canadians "You didn't build that".

Interesting , well lets gift them some more property:
Final Thanks for The Day The Music Died,

naw once it's typed it's on the net there's a billion pictures on the internet that originally was someone's authentic work that is until someone sees it and right clicks lol just playing devils advocate how many people have been fired or even arrested for something they posted on their own facebook? I'm not taking their side just not much we can do...
 
I know that every key stroke leaves a mark, I'm just asking to have my membership removed from their roster.
That should be a click and done.
 
How about posting a smiley like this?

Well, they're not going to do that. As i understand it the advertising income, or at least what they can charge for advertising is based on forum membership and traffic. If they delete your membership they are losing money. Why would they do that, just to keep from pissing you off? From their POV that's just gravy.
 
Well. Your advertising company pisses off the membership of a regional gun forum. How many are going to see the advertising when they have walked off. You are paying and nobody is seeing the message. Your advertising dollar was just wasted.


I used tapatalk. While there was some ads, I just skipped over them. Besides word of.mouth reviews are better than any other type of advertising. Just look at our fights over Duke's mayonnaise.

Duke's is the Glock of mayonnaise.

Clearly that's true but that's different from saying the forum owner "owns" the posting.

Fo Sho, once one posts it, its out there ( go look in the wayback machine for really old posts :) )
 
In the spirit of internet content which is the property of the website owner, and in the spirit of the Christmas season, I gift you this post. May you keep it forever and claim it and all proceeds therefrom as your own for all eternity. No backsies.

Yeah i understand they might eventually after they resupply membership. They use the member count for advertising pricing

Well they might eventually honor requests after they replinish who knows

There is other mayonnaise out there???

Some other stuff they call mayo, but they can only sell it to Yankees who just don't know any better, bless their little hearts.

Well, except Duke's ain't ugly...

An optimist, I see.
 
I still go "over there" from time to time. It's a fascinating perspective of group dynamics and sociology. Most of the old-timers are here now, and the mid-range folks over there are starting to feel their oats and exercise some muscle. It's a matter of time until that place is just a shell of its former self.
 
Again, I am spending a little time removing, slowly, my posts from there.
I figure as long as I remove about the same amount as I am posting here then I should be good.

I'll probably never finish (thats what she said), but Ive already made a pretty good dent in the post count over there.

How are you removing them? Mine no longer has the edit or delete option. If you found a way, let me know and I'll delete more of mine.

Well, unfortunately, you have to delete one by one.
Its easy though, BUT you cant delete threads that have been locked.

Is that a gender neutral post?

...or anything in the Minefield as I recall.

You also can't delete any threads that you started from what I've found. Plus some of the really old stuff only has "Report" listed now. I deleted everything of mine that I could. Ended up with something like 600 posts remaining. Now I'm going back through those and editing them to remove the content.

I cannot edit or delete any post. There is no icon to edit of delete, only like and report. Any other suggestions?
 
After several PM's to various people, it seems that my name
has been stricken from the list. I did find a few posts, but they
were identified as guest.

Have you been banned??
 
Not that I am aware of. I can still post and it does not say I'm banned.

Just checked and all that is there is Report and Reply. I'm going into my account under my Communications. Is there some place else to go into?

go to top right corner, find your name, hover over your name.
Should get a drop down of stuff, look for 'my content' or something like that, that'll bring up a list of your posts
click on one
under your post you'll have option, middle is 'delete'
it'll then ask for a reason youre deleting, just leave it blankand hit delete

It works. Ive done at least 20 this morning already,about to do another dozen.

So far Ive done about 800 posts.
it doesnt take too much time, but I wish there was a quicker way to just mass purge
 
At NCGO they did say they could cancel our memberships and anonymize our posts. I requested that. I seem to have received it.

I was angry at first for what seemed like a sellout to an antigun entity but then I realized how many pro 2nd forums they owned and decided the best thing to do was start telling everyone who owned their favorite forums in the hopes people will stop using them.

I no longer have "delete" as an option on my posts. They may have caught on though and only restricting some groups? I still have edit capabilities on most though so I'm editing them out and leaving nice little messages here and there.

HMP, that is what I was doing, and now I do not have the options. I just posted over there asking the new owners why I can no longer edit or delete to remove personal information. I'll see what they say. I tried to use snip it and post a picture here but it does not work.
