    Why are my posts being edited and deleted?

    This is my first post:

    You are right, it is not religious mockery that Muslims are against, it is Islamic mockery that Muslims are against. It is more than acceptable for Muslims to mock Judaism or Christianity, as happens daily in Mid-Eastern newspapers, the real problem is the double standard they have.

    So, when Muslims outside the West attempt to have us change our laws to suit them, it is called "imperialism", and they can [***Offensive language edited out by Al-khiyal***]
    This is my second post:

    [****Reposted offensive language edited out by Al-khiyal***] is not very offensive where I come from, so sorry if I offended anyone, it should be on the bad word filter so it will just show "*****" instead.

    Back to the topic, I'm also reminded, in Saudi Arabia they destroy Bibles if they find them on you. Destroying someone's religious book is even worse than drawing a cartoon of someone's religious leader IMO.

    [***When language is edited out as offensive it is not acceptable to repost it. If you have points to make then surely it is not too much to make them without resorting to abusive terms*** - Al-khiyal]
    This is my third post that was completely deleted (note the "offensive content" was linked to after an EXPLICIT warning to sensitive individuals, and still PALES in comparison to the gruesome, violent, content that is often posted by Al-Khiyal):

    It is NOT offensive. On what world, no, universe, are you, that what I said is considered offensive? I mean... I'm so sure that what I said was not offensive to anyone here, that I'll convert to Islam if you can prove to me that it is. Let's take a poll, shall we? Let's see, if there is anyone out there that could find even the smallest offense in what I said, I'll change my religion. I mean, if anything, it's an insult to bugs, but that's stretching it about as far as I can comprehend. Even if it is offensive to insects, since when do insects have feelings? I suppose if you are a member of PETA or something they do. Are you a member of PETA? The only other reason I could see for editing that word, was to make it look like I really said something bad for those who didn't read the unedited version. I mean, when you edit someone's post in this manner: "those people can go and... [edit]", most people will use their dirty little minds, and probably come up with something far worse than what was actually said (which was originally something that a 2nd grader would say). So in a way, you are really doing a disservice to everyone here by removing the original. That's about the only plausible explanation I can come up with, that you are really trying to make my post seem somehow dirty, probably because you disagree with it, who knows.

    To save my own honour, and to clarify for those out there who did not read the original and who were mislead, the "offensive content" was on about the same level as the word "silly", I wouldn't say anything more than that in a religion forum. There's a thing called respect, you know?

    Since it IS ok to post links to offensive, often violent or gruesome, material, as long as it is preceeded by a warning to the viewer (I see you doing it all the time) I will leave an attachment with an explicit warning, for our more sensitive individuals. They can at least see that I am not some foul mouthed member.

    ***WARNING: The following may contain offensive material to sensitive individuals, please do not click if you are offended by mild language of any kind!****
    Proceed with caution. Don't say I didn't warn you.

    The post was edited because it contained an offensive phrase which you have tried to repost, in one way or another, twice more after you were asked not to use it.

    The administrator has been advised and will view your post.

    He doesn't need to view my post, because I just reposted it, genius. And to the administrator, the post that was deleted needn't have been edited by Khiyal, since it was deleted, so if it says "edited by" and the post says anything other than the original I just posted, then it won't take a genius to figure out what's going on. I hope you thought about that before you attempted to frame me, huh? Ain't so smart anymore, are you, because you woudn't dare report my original post to the admin when it didn't have anything worth reporting, she'd laugh at you.

    But I ask, why I cannot post an attachment with an explicit warning to a mild school child term, when Khiyal constantly posts graphic, violent, and gruesome content, such as this:

    By the way Khiyal, you've really stepped in it this time. The admin might just listen to me. I am a moderator, you know, on another VCI site. So you won't be able to push me around like the other helpless members.

    I've seen your abuse of power with my own eyes. The constant complaints about you in this forum can't be ALL lies now, can they.

    A copy of your original post, unedited, has been made available to the administrator. The deleted comment is also available to the administrator. Your status elsewhere is irrelevant - A.com has standards that its moderators uphold and your repeated attempts to repost an offensive term do not meet those standards.

    Are you serious? My God, the admin is just going to laugh at you!

    You've decided to push everyone around you don't like, even to the point of finding archaic meanings in their words as grounds to ban them!

    Goodness! You are maniacal!

    You are absolutely on a rampage and out of control.

    That deleted comment better be unedited too, the other copies are useless, since you just copied them and but edited the original, the only proof you have is if the deleted copy is unedited.
