Nah. 95% column B.A little bit from column A and a little bit from column B?
I was castigated on B&B by a moderator for posting a link to a TSD thread, during a discussion of the Gillette Contra. "Duplication of B&B forum owned content." Was the reason given, despite the fact that outside of two threads on B&B and one actually informative thread on The Shave Den, and a patent drawing, no information on that razor exists outside of Gillette's vaults.Oh, and I need to work much harder at getting banned from B&B ... I guess I should post there now and again, although my "this still gives me wood"* picture was indeed met with some moderation, a PM, another PM and a second visit from the though police when I returned my text back to my original intention. I think that's all the slack I was likely to get ...
* it was in the "cars you have owned" thread and it was a picture of my sensationally sexy late-80s SAAB 900 Turbo, replete with body-coloured wheels.
Despite minor annoyances here, this forum has a long way to go if it wants to reach the epic heights of first class douchebaggery B&B has mastered.August West said:PLANofMAN said:This is the only thing I've found on B&B that talks about the Contra:August West said:A link to The Shave Den was removed from one of your posts. It is in violation of the TOU.
6a. Links to sites that duplicate B&B content - B&B is a free service for our members, and maintains a specific set of rules, posting limitations, and fee structure for those advertising goods, services, and outside information sources such as blogs, podcasts, videos, and sites which have similar content to B&B. Links, redirects, or pointing to content that duplicates B&B content is disallowed. Links to blogs (regardless of subject) are not permitted. In short, if it's a subject discussed on B&B, links to other sites may only be posted by approved and paid vendors.
Thanks for your understanding. Please reply upon receipt and acknowledge your understanding.

and it's not a duplicate of the link I posted, nor does it have any of the same information, aside from a link to the original patent.
Was it removed because it was a link to the shave den, or was it removed because there is an actual duplicate thread? I've looked for a duplicate thread on B&B and have been able to turn up nothing except the one thread I linked to above, which is basically a "I don't know what this is thread."
The Shave Den Link.
Great!
@Darkbulb said it above - it's someone's house and he's appointed a doorman. Simples.
Personally, I enjoyed this post the most:
That's a Coony (Maine Coon cat) if ever I saw one
You know what? One fellow aired a grievance, others added their views, it was discussed, said fellow found his level, those aired against found theirs ... we posted cat pictures, pictures of Manuel, pictures of cups of tea and all is right with the world. I agree with the former and empathise with the latter.
You know what? This forum has still got it ...
And pants. Pictures of pants. Green uns.
