You didn't just lock the thread, you deleted 17 posts.

You have to feel for the moderators. This must be embarrassing...and NOT their doing.

Were the 17 deleted posts also transferred?
Why were 7 left and not all....or all deleted then????? That is cencorship.

Well, locking a thread is one thing, but deleting 17 posts just because they happen to disagree is nonsense. If this is where AW is heading, the end will arrive faster than I thought.

I think they made it clear, they want us to voice our views in the other forum. There everyone can see them, and they can delete them faster.
It's just the same old thingies,

I've got 15 of the 17 that were deleted.
This is a new low for AW. Sad...

I think the deleting and other nefarious types of behaviour are a worse problem than the new fees.
I've used AW for over a year and I never have seen this before.
It makes me wonder about a lot of threads. If mods are removing posts to threads it can color the nature of a discussion??
What's up AW??

That is a very good point Canvid. I guess we have to turn on email notification on each thread we want to watch.
I'm totally speechless...

Well! I for one plan on never discussing the fees again (they bite)! I'm sure there is a very good reason for deleting posts and locking threads (the fees suck!)! I plan on joining those other THOUSANDS dancing in the streets who are celebrating the new & improved AW (fees bite) Lets all move into a new era of love peace & happiness (fees suck)!
 
NOT TO MENTION...
LOCKED!

Hello Everyone,
This is not a moderation issue but rather an action taken by Administration.
This is not Ebay related either so I will lock the thread.

Honest to god...I'm NOT known for tact, but even I am better at PR than this. Don't they get that allowing criticism makes them look fair and even-handed? This deleting critical posts is just plain stupid, and makes them look very, very bad.
