Someone in Oxford has taken against my posting. It was removed and hidden. A message went up after a lot of comments by others to say that it could be reinstated if I email Oxford indymedia. People have been asking for it to be reinstated but these postings have been removed without explanation. (Nasty comments have been left up). What is going on?

... this is for comments on the story, not a random chat on postings on kak. Stay on topic or create your blog, but stop parasiting on the back of other people's postings. Oh, and why not read the IMC guidelines - it is quite obvious why these posts have been removed. Hint: THIS IS A FUCKING NEWS SITE, OKAY - NEWS. NEWS. NEWS. NEWS. NEWS. NEWS.
Can that be made any simpler, 'Mr Whine,-why-has-my-incomprehensible-personal-epiphany-been-removed?'
It is not censorship, it is doing the rest of a favour, and preserving IMC as a quality news site.
How about another big hint - INDYMEDIA IS NOT A BLOG OR A FREE-FOR-ALL. It has a purpose to serve, reporting news. If you want to report on your brainstorms then set up your own blog and stop abusing the good people of Indymedia. Respect to them.

M.Thatcher.
Your abusive comments are unnecessary. I assume from your aggressive ramblings that you did not see the original story.
I did see it and thought it was interesting and relevant to Oxford people especially those of us who struggle for social justice and human rights. It was no less a news story than many items posted, it perhaps tested peoples morals more than others.
IM is exactly the right place for such information. Thank you for your putting up the original story Feeler, whoever you are.
Radjul made some honest comments about IM before the story was pulled again. It would make a refreshing change if IM could be more open and honest and perhaps apologetic when they get things wrong.
