Is irony allowed under the rules of the forum?

You are the mod... The forum is full of irony or are you just trying to find some reason to remove my post

Trust me pal, there appears very little reason required to do that. I currently hold the record and I'm relatively moderate in my opinions.

Crikey.  I'm an ex-mod and I have no idea how one checks on deleted posts?

What's your secret?

Quick, before this post gets deleted!   (&^&

What is the record you are claiming?

I don't really know, or indeed hold the record, but my posts just evaporate, usually when Eleanor's on.
I'm not really concerned, more amused, so I make light of it and have claimed the notional forum record.

Is that why you post count is relatively low?

Nah, I jest. It's a handful. Some notice or reason would be useful, but not essential.

Sometimes I discuss the reasons on the forum, like yesterday ad homs or today the issue of irony.   I hope you all learn from these discussions.  I certainly do.  Three years ago when I joined (July 09, 2016) I was always getting posts deleted and I had to learn how not to libel anyone.  It is not easy if you are opinionated.  I personally like your style as it is like my own, that's how I feel anyway.  So you might be having the same problem - libel.
