me :( regarding the banning of my post
I am sad and disappointed that what I presume was a reputable board like phonescoop, actually censors, edits, deletes what they do not see fit.
I have been an observer for a long time of this board. I have seen stuff that I thought was immature childish but never got banned. I come here for info and knowledge but I must say I was very disappointed by what transpired.
Not many forums exist where you can express yourself without fear of reprisals. The question was of Verizon Wireless nature. It asked if Fox was going to attack Verizon Wireless for not allowing their reps to say Merry Christmas. I am not christian or atheist but I think a tradition is a tradition.

no matter what the intent of your post was it turned into a religious crap debate. This site is very easy going on what is moderated. We are here for cell talk not Santa talk. FYI if you posted that in the lounge it would still be there.

In cell phone related news, I might get a Christmas ringback tone

Go ahead and hook it up, VA!
I put 2 ringback tones on mine and I have it on my "Christmas" jukebox. I only wanted to cough up $2 for songs I'm just going to play for a month so I only put two on there.

I must agree with the others that have already responded to you. The initial post you made was Verizon related, but it went heavily into a political discussion having zero to do with Verizon and while I was interested in that discussion as well, I cannot blame the moderators for removing it once it was clear it was no longer a discussion having anything to do with Verizon (or wireless for that matter).
