I saw the link before it was removed by the mods and it was to the Mormon Curtain website. Do they allow posting a link to this forum over there?
I thought it was to over here, so it appears I was wrong. Thanks for the correction.

That wasn't my question. But I too think people can come here and read it.
I'll attempt to rephrase. MDDB has a policy to not link to sites that containt temple content or other inappropriate content. This site has temple content and other vulgar and salacious content that they deem inappropriate so they abide by the policy not to link to this site. Are you saying their stated policy does not apply to this site?
Love ya tons, Stem
I ain't nuttin'. don't get all worked up on account of me.
Simply post your review of the review over there, if you want people to read it. Many folks don't venture over here because it is ridiculously hostile here.

Actually, it appears this is a non-issue, because Madison has since pointed out that the link was to Mormon Curtain, not to here. That said, MDDB's policy is for children.

No can do -- I was banned over there several years ago.

typical double standards. that heavy handed moderation must be a bitch to manage.
So you think they are moderating whether people can read or post here? They are managing people who want to try and add some semblence of balance to the hostile atmosphere here when they attack DCP and others?
Let me just put your mind at ease. No one over there pays attention to me.

Then simply allow someone else to post it. I'll do it if you like.
Seth Payne is going to put it on his blog, so he'll post a link on MDDB. Frankly, I don't think the Mods over there would ever allow a post of anything authored by "Rollo Tomasi," even if it was someone else who did the posting.

It is even ok for leadership of FAIR to log over thousands upon thousands of post here, all the while decrying this place as a cease pool and trailer park.
