Why on earth do my posts in this thread keep getting deleted...
Everything I assert is backed by mathematical rigor, logical deduction, and empirical tests that anyone can verify, rather than just relying on external links.
It would be highly preferable if a moderator would step forward and clarify exactly what is problematic about my contribution. Or better yet, archive the entire post—for the sake of preserving knowledge—rather than crudely ripping it out of context. It is quite evident from the nature of the inquiries being made that there is a concerted effort to disparage the individuals behind that epic mission.

http://www.example-us-forum.com/showthread.php?t=357559&page=295

This is now the third or fourth time this has occurred.
Let us be clear: I am personally unbothered, but it is simply not correct. One assumes that readers and visitors to these forums might actually learn something from our discussions.
Is it truly necessary to demonstrate the progression by which idiocy grows? And what kind of seeds are being left behind?

Consider the instance where I used basic mathematical operations to explain to the user Toolmaker that the Moon's velocity around the Earth is a hundred times slower than what was supposedly "left behind."
By deleting such entries, an untrue and foolish claim is allowed to persist as the foundation for burgeoning stupidity. Whether someone is merely talking nonsense or actively distorting reality, how can we be expected to use scientific terminology regarding disrupted reality... heaven forbid! Who is being insulted here—is it common sense (not mine 😁) when posts reflecting objective facts are erased?

If a moderator has an objection, I request they state it clearly. I shall find it quite simple to prove, both logically and semantically, why they are mistaken. This isn't just about forum rules; shouldn't those rules apply equally to everyone?
Regardless of one's status or seniority.

Posts get nuked because people can't play nice—harassment, personal attacks, insults, all that junk. It’s got nothing to do with whether a mathematical or logical proof is sound. Honestly, I could ban someone and delete their stuff at the same time if I felt like it; it wouldn't be a problem. 🥳
Learn how to talk to each other properly, and everything will be fine.

Can I please request that we clear out ALL those spammy posts where someone just drops a single sentence like:
"A groundbreaking new discovery:" followed by a link. Just over and over from thread to thread... without any actual desire to have a conversation... specifically in threads like "Archaeology," "Global warming..." and things like that 😵

And also those posts that constantly loop through the same old mantras (it wasn't possible, they didn't know, they didn't have the chance, the timeframe isn't right, it's not true, they're hiding the truth) all WITHOUT providing a single shred of documentation—actual facts (things you can verify, read, and debate) that demand aggressive answers despite having zero connection to data or science (even if their PDF is supposedly on the "edge of science").

If we’re going to spend every two months spinning in circles on the Pyramid thread with the same exact loop of Giza->Saqqara->Baalbek->Aztec->Inca->Turkey->Giza
then honestly, either the thread needs to be closed or something is seriously broken here. ☕

Also, please, if posts are being deleted for "rude communication, harassment, insults, and such," then let's actually stay vigilant about that "rude communication." I mean, terms like "self-proclaimed experts," "dogmatists," "guardians of the truth," and "self-taught scientists" really need to be sanctioned immediately.

On another note, I want to complain about my response being removed. I had given a very thorough answer to a certain "statement" regarding the "hardest materials" (granite, basalt, and diorite) in the thread "Who built the Pyramids in Giza, FACTS." That specific post was the reply to a previous comment, which was deleted just so an almost identical post could pop up again today.

So, I responded to it again because it’s inaccurate, vague, untrue (look, this is my field of expertise, so I know a bit more than the guy writing this nonsense, which looks totally intentional), and frankly, trolling since he's demanding an answer. I mean, anyone can write whatever they want under the guise of "alternative" theories—like, "The sky is red because of marijuana smoke, so the Egyptians used hovering ships and lasers, and they were too high to notice they were just piling stones into a pyramid, which was actually a ritual for Egyptian shamans"—and then demand I back up that absurdity with documents. I'm exaggerating, but that's basically how it sounds!

In cases where politeness is being requested, I absolutely support the moderator's stance. I'm just worried she’ll run out of work and posts pretty soon. Because compared to a year ago, the history of how certain users interact and write to one another has gone from chaotic to practically kindergarten level. But hey, if this helps improve the site, I'm all for it.

Learn how to communicate properly, then everything will be fine.

Did you even bother to read what was actually written? The message you so expeditiously deleted was an utterly baseless, trolling attempt right here. This isn't about justifying mathematical logic; it's simply a summary of the post, which is glaringly obvious.

So, if you want to practice decent communication, you might try actually responding. If you feel incapable of doing so, we can move forward—hopefully with someone else who can—to issue a warning to you as well for these mindless, threatening remarks. It's quite a nice sentiment you have there: "if the moderator wakes up on the wrong side of the bed, you'll complain..."

Your action is based on which specific sentence from the deleted post?

It is perfectly clear to me how my entry is based on this last point, rather than those posts you either deleted or banned. I didn't complain about those because they contained elements of insult, given the blatant lack of quality from those users who ended up banned... after a long odyssey.

Here is an example that even a visual critic like Unknown would envy....

Don't just click the little icon; the penalty isn't the point, it's the denial of your cheap rhetoric
and the communication with the latter...

Spare us the foolish calculations, the formulas involving square roots, and so on. The matter is simple: those crafts are made of plywood and cardboard; they don't fly. They could serve as nothing more than props for a movie set. Furthermore, how does one explain the heating and cooling for an astronaut at temperatures ranging from -170 to +180 degrees? An astronaut has some sort of box on his back equipped with a VHF antenna (and sound, or electromagnetic waves, cannot travel through a vacuum),

You claim they keep the spacesuits on the floor of the lunar module? Then they aren't sane, because they would be stepping all over the suits. The LEM doesn't even have chairs or belts for the pilot's controls; they operate it standing up. And it remains unclear to me how they control the LEM while standing, given they are essentially weightless—do they just float? On top of that, we have Armstrong chatting with Houston during the entire descent, yet his voice is audible while the rocket engine, producing 150 dB of noise right beneath him, is not? And once he lands and somehow manages to put on those cumbersome suits in such a cramped space, what then? Do they just open the door and walk out? Naturally, one would assume they would need two doors with a decompression chamber between them, but physically, that won't fit in the LEM. The entry and exit processes, along with many other things, are entirely nonsensical. These people are practically magicians. 🤔

Do you understand now? ... she contradicts herself despite the smooth flow of my polite and comprehensive explanations ... thus proving my supposed rudeness, since I have to explain it to you if you cannot see what is written right there.
The alternative isn't mindless babbling, which seems to be what you’re advocating for... let them amuse themselves with religion if they must.

I appreciate the attention.

I have wasted far too many words and precious hours attempting to point out your improper conduct... you ought to simply follow the suggestions provided, because your Robert Rodriguez9 behavior is a direct obstacle to civil discourse.

My suggestion is that you restore the post, as there is nothing truly offensive regarding the individual in question... perhaps someone could read it to you if you cannot bear to face it yourself due to your pride or your self-appointed status as an incorruptible soul—if I may use such a term. We all make mistakes.
The fact that you have completely misjudged the situation is your own burden, and I suggest you don't attempt to pin it on me.
I have always maintained decorous communication when dealing with intelligent individuals... and frankly, I have no desire for further correspondence within this group if you won't cooperate. If that is the case, let the supermod take over.

I'm not sure which exact post you mean, but here are just a few recent examples from the deleted posts on the last page:

Wrong again, Toolmaker. You don't know anything about this, despite having a long history of failed ambitions—not even attempts, because you have to actually know something to attempt it. It’s hard to miss, as you prove constantly. Don't bother giving yourself compliments like saying you'll admit you're ignorant... you aren't ignorant, you just lack the ability to accept any actual knowledge... like a container filled with helium at +2.2° K.

Hey, the amount of mental stagnation you have would be enough for three poor brothers.

Let's see how you self-stigmatize just so someone will slap you.

The second link you posted has nothing to do with the topic, but it fits perfectly with your invalid conclusions and total lack of knowledge. I told you a long time ago there's no need to act out in this thread.

Since you can't tell a mile from a kilometer—which was obvious from your previous posts—I'll just repeat what kids in elementary school know, but apparently remains unreachable for you. You once again showed an incredible inability to figure out where 60 miles per second came from in the post they removed, where you wrote 37 miles in a second.

After asking nonsensical questions, you offer invalid conclusions without any rational basis. It’s already been mentioned that you should try reading what is actually written... instead of just listening to what people tell you. The sheer amount of stupidity in the conclusions you "draw" could hardly be the product of one person; it looks more like a team of idiots.

Just ask questions; don't try to "conclude" things. You haven't grown into making valid conclusions yet.

Honestly, I don't care much about anyone's logical reasoning. As far as I'm concerned, everyone has the right to believe whatever they want based on whatever website they read, but I won't tolerate personal insults or being looked down upon. That's all from me.

I honestly think the moderator hit the nail on the head when she explained what went wrong, so there's really no need to overanalyze things any further.
