That's what VolleyTalk has become.
Let's just delete any interesting discussion and keep the forum confined to "HAWAII IS SO AWEOME!"... "YEAH, BUT PENN STATE IS AWESOMER!"
What a joke.

Yep, of course. That would be sweet symmetry.
Just censor or move the thread that is critical of VolleyTalk for censoring/moving threads.

"Actionable?" Aren't you taking this freaking little internet message board a little too seriously?
Okay, law school dropout, what was actionable about the homophobia thread? Or even the Reed S thread?

recoil, if you don't like VT then you should just go away. And I don't say that with any malice, I say it because I've been on many many boards, and when they go a direction that I don't care for, I have learned that its best just to disappear. Bitch about it if you care to, but it just looks bad on you.
Say your goodbyes or not, but take a break for a while. Lurk or don't, come back or don't. Just don't make a stink.

This thread has not been removed. Odin moved it to a Off-the-Net. Not sure how that is censorship. Seems like it falls under the heading of "moderation."
I did not read this thread, so tell me: Was it specific to volleyball?

"Just don't make a stink?" Not making a stink, but an observation. I really wasn't asking for advice from any of you; most of you would require an infusion of some more intellectual horsepower for that to be worthwhile.
And yes, the "volleyball and homophobia" thread was specific to volleyball. Of course, some posters brought up other pertinent, related current events. These were all pertinent to the discussion at hand.
VolleyTalk ought to be able to tolerate a little bit of criticism or dissenting opinion. And even the occasional controversial thread.

I'm with vbcpk68.
I think it's supreme irony that VolleyTalk participated in the anti-SOPA blackout to protest the passage of an internet censorship bill.
Anyone that says anything bad about a college coach (or an ex-college coach) is villified on this message board... it's ALWAYS the AD's fault for not supporting the coach or it's the parents' fault for raising such spoiled brats or the players' fault being such selfish jerks. Anyone who dares to take on a coach becomes chum, and the thread gets locked or deleted or moved. What's funny about that is how many terrible college coaches there are out there.
But that's not nearly as funny as VolleyTalk's blackout to protest internet censorship.
What a joke.
What's WRONG with speculating about why a coach like this lost his job???

So, it's your position that if someone were to come on here and say that a coach lost his/her job because he/she tortures cats that would be OK?
Anything goes?
And, for the record, recoil, you are grossly misrepresenting SOPA and its protest.
