this is pretty pathetic of stars imo

You don't know that it was Stars. It could be 2p2 lawyers advising them.

What made this situation different than all others? I have no idea.

Maybe it was Stars, we just don't know. But... if it was Stars, then that's pretty [censored] up and there has to be some sort of details that aren't being shared for why it would be so legally sensitive.

It could also have been lawyers representing TheV0id in a suit against PokerStars. I would think that a bit less likely than Stars. Then again, I'm pretty disappointed 2p2 would take such threads down regardless of who requested it.

[Dynasty]

The lawyer did not represent PokerStars.

Also, the threads still exist in the mod forum and can be returned in the future.

I have spent a great deal of time and effort reading all the relevant threads for the past ten minutes and I can assure you that in my opinion nothing is wrong and nothing has been said or done by anyone that is of any consequence.

Having said that, and cleared any lingering doubts you may have had, unfortunately there was one old joke posted by tuq that has had to be sent back to the original writer for copyright reasons.

Now, please move along.

I think degen may be allowed back. Any comments anyone?

Will they be restored then?
Also I wasn't so bothered that the threads actually disappeared, rather that they were taken away with no explanation and this thread had to be made to get an answer. Wouldn't it have been prudent for whoever went around chopping them all to post a two line explanation?

[Mike Haven]

In retrospect, yes, it probably would have been prudent to do that.

However, at the time, there wasn't really a party line on what to do. They were just rushed off the publicly-viewed forums while consideration was given.

If the powers that be decide they can go back into the public forums, (and I would guess that also depends a lot on what is posted elsewhere on the internets), then you can bet your boots they will be. Until then, I suspect that the mods will be overly cautious in what they allow to remain in the publicly-viewed forums here.

Besides all that, it ups the views in ATF.
