Status: online Folks, chill out. The only posts that were deleted were redundant ones in NEW threads. There is a 5-page thread about the lineup called "The Lineup is Here" that contains positive, negative, and neutral opinions. If you have a general opinion about the lineup (positive or negative), please post it there. It doesn't have to be postive... you can say whatever you want.

This isn't a "censorship" issue. If ACL wanted to censor every negative post, why are there so many in the "The Lineup is Here" thread? Take a look. No post was ever deleted until newbies started new threads about the exact conversation going on in the existing thread.

The point is: if you have something NEW to say, then make a new thread. If it's a continuation of an existing topic, please respect the board and post it in the existing thread (even the poll that was mentioned). It's simple message board courtesy so that the topics don't get out of control.

For example, a post like "ACL Fest compared to other summer fests" is a new, and honestly interesting, topic. Even though the original thread starter holds an unfavorable opinion, the thread is perfectly fine because again... it's a NEW topic and NEW conversation. It didn't and would never be deleted. Not just the same ole "Here's my thought on the lineup."

Hope this makes sense. Thanks.
