I just posted a response here and WHY was it deleted? It was not insulting

I was just asking why everyone seems to be so unkind as this person does and just asked for moderators. The nasty posts should be deleted, not questions pertaining to that. Makes no sense to me.

response to your insulting post on consulting
Wanting to start out with a consultant is called being prepared and nothing to do with my capabiilty of handling a business. both are very two different entitities. Its like operating any other business to get started. If it was not true there would not be any consultants out there. both of you might have started 20 years by the sounds of your posts and it sounds like you might have hit it lucky getting by without contracts. I would rather be safe than sorry but more power to you. I guess it makes you feel "superior."
I posted this in response to
post below which has now been removed. Trolls do seem to show up on Fridays for some reason.
Why? Because no one posted a response?
There was a response posted on this site--sm
last week saying the resume posting site was being overhauled and it would be back up soon. Guess it is not done yet.
Has anyone posted a resume lately and gotten a decent response that way. nm

See under Hayseed's response; I posted in the wrong spot. nm

How insulting, I wonder which national he is with, SM
I remember someone saying MQ's CEO called MTs "trained monkeys", but this article didn't specify which company.
I'm not suprised by any of this BTW.
Have to post this because I think its both funny AND insulting - sm
This was posted on GURU.com - it's a job up for bidding. But read carefully and look at all the EXPECTATIONS this person has .... for $20/audio hour.
Description:
I am looking for several Document Production Specialists to start ASAP.
Requirements:
* At least two years of transcription experience
* Excellent spelling, grammar, punctuation
* Extensive vocabulary
* Medical, legal, and general business terminology
* Ability to research
* Excellent listening and comprehension skills
* Detail oriented
* Ability to follow simple instructions
* "Just do it" attitude
* Professional attitude, communication skills and work habits
* Express Scribe software and foot pedal
* Microsoft Word
* Committed to providing a quality work product
Let me emphasize that this is not a simple typing job. If you have
fast and accurate typing skills, good, but that's not enough. I have
extremely high standards and you must be able to meet these high standards.
***If you cannot complete one hour of transcription and provide a
PERFECT transcript within 24 hours, please do not bid.***
It is very important that you be able to work without advance notice
and without distractions. If you cannot do this, please do not bid.
It is also very important that you be able to take the ball and run
with it and not ask a lot of questions. If you need a lot of
hand-holding, please do not bid.
If you get frustrated easily and cannot handle challenging
transcription work, DO NOT bid.
For those of you who want super-easy work for tons of money, DO NOT
bid.
I need for you to indicate your days and hours of availability. These
days and hours should NOT be flexible. These should be the days and
times that you are ALWAYS available to work. You will be receiving jobs
during these days and hours without advance notice and you are expected
to do them, no excuses.
Please don't ask me if work is available. When work is available, I
will send it to you during the days/hours you have specified.
If you are a serious professional, confident about your abilities, take
a great deal of pride in your work, and don't mind working for a fair
but demanding boss, please bid PER AUDIO HOUR. Keep in mind, however,
that you will not be paid more than $20 per audio hour to start.
I responded in a polite way, stating that I do not know of anyone that would take work on a MOMENT'S NOTICE, turn it around in 3-5 hours for the total cost of $20. I got the nastiest response back .... "Well guess what? I've had bids for $10 and $25. So there."
What do you all think?
That's an insulting offer for someone with experience. Please keep looking. nm

What a joke! Not only is that insulting, listening to that would put me right to
SLEEP!
It supposed to be so insulting to be called the "R" word.
Only whites are accused of being racists but listen to some of the music you hear on MTV, listen to Jesse Jackson and AL Sharpton. Are they racists? Darned right they are! The only difference is that it's somehow become socially acceptable for them to be, but not for Caucasians. We're supposed to feel guilty for whatever is wrong in minority people's lives. Well, we're not. Life is what you make it. If your life sucks, whatever color or nationality you are, fix it or shut up about it.
That is the most insulting, bigoted statement about homosexuals...
I have ever seen on this board. How dare you cram your narrow-minded, hateful, ignorant garbage down our throats when we read your thread in good faith that you had a brain. Shame on you.
Only deleting insulting posts....not normal ones like
At least he's not on a power trip...yet. By the way...if you hate it soooooo much, why are you sticking around to post over and over and over how we shouldn't post?
My post was NOT NOT INSULTING. I just wanted to get some answers
YES HE OR SHE IS ON A POWER TRIP if they keep deleting my questions. Why are THEY AFRAID to answer who owns this company. I will stick around until I get a satisfactory answer. I never said I HATED THIS SITE. Where did you get that from? I am not telling YOU how to post either. So again, ONLY WANT TO KNOW WHO OWNS THIS COMPANY. SIMPLE, SIMPLE QUESTION. NOT an insult.
Anyone else offended or insulted to be offered 6-7 cpl? Or is it just me or finds this insulting.
Is this how bad it is that now this is the going rate?? I get sick to my stomach just thinking about it. I need a career change. 
The should've just saved the stamp as it would have been less insulting to receive

Please explain what was snippy, rude, arrogant, or insulting in her post.
Sorry, but that's the attitude YOU put forward. You're the one ranting about not being able to find quality MTs. You use the same nickname and the same style as someone who posted the same topic a few days ago. I think you knew that would incite a riot. Maybe the MTs should start an MTSO bashing post and explain the real reason some MTSOs can't find decent MTs. You reap what you sow. If you're only offering newbie rates, you're only going to get newbie applicants. Maybe it's YOU that is the reason you can't find quality MTs.
Yeah, okay. Don't share your views and opinions. Just be insulting, that's helpful. SM
You do realize that your profession is about more than just you. We are all MTs. What is going on in our profession affects us all. It's not just about you or me.
Way friggin' insulting!! Or getting a job at a higher rate & finding a newbie

Good choice. Appauling, insulting, and every other neg. MT word ya can think of. Holy Smokes. Grant
the Serenity Prayer.
oopsie! 2nd response in. Just followed 1st response.
I deleted it through the (sm)

my post was deleted
all i did was tell the truth about her bad language in an email to me. it was the truth and based on fact. are we not allowed to post true events?
Why have all the posts been deleted that said they
didn't see anything wrong with this?
I know - my comment was deleted
.....I guess if you own the board you can delete anything you don't like being said about yourself. So much for freedom of speech.
Were there some posts deleted here?
It's real confusing ... however, my 2 cents? There's no possible way you could reach 100K a year at 8 cpl. Anyone who says they do is fibbing, IMO, or else they never sleep or eat and just transcribe all hours of the day.
At 8 cpl, assuming we're talking the standard 65-char. line, I think you'd be doing quite well to reach $30K a year. JMO.
Deleted lines.
I do not count it if it is just a sentence or two. If it is say a whole note, or close to it, I do count it and send a note stating what I did.
This is a deleted website????

I had that problem and went in and deleted the ...
printer and then went back in and re-installed it and now it works. Good luck.
There were 2 or 3 other answers here that got deleted - sm
for some reason, they certainly were not offensive, so it is a bit weird. But what they said is NO! Not unless you work an awful lot (i.e. 7 days, probably 12-14 hour days). So yeah you could do it but you'd have no life, no husband either in the long run and no sanity.
Was this post deleted?

Messages deleted??
I really want to thank all you wonderful people who have tried to help me today. I am wondering what happened to all of the posts though, as I am only seeing a few of the many that were earlier this afternoon. Did the administrator delete some of them? If so, why?
Yes they get deleted. The need to post the

Selling business deleted?
May I ask why the selling business messages were all deleted? Was something said that should not have been? Just curious so that if I said something I do not do it again.
I have no clue why my reply to you was deleted!
It was a friendly, I'm sorry you're going thru this, been there, done that post! This is beyond silly! Anyhooo, guess its not worth answering posts if they just get edited for no reason at all! Maybe lots of others have answered you as well, but they disappear in a flash!
Moderator and everybody else, my apology was DELETED. sm
I had wrote an apology for coming across so nasty earlier and I am sure that the gals that were involved in this post read it before somebody deleted it and decided to give me a warning.
Moderator, can I ask why my first apology was deleted?nm
We all saw it and all it said was sorry for coming across so nasty.

It appears to have been deleted. I forget - sm
which board it was on, this one or gab? Anyways, I had said to possibly use call blocking to block your sister, or to unplug your phone for 15 minutes or so during the period she calls you back. I remember someone else suggested having her number blocked but have her calls forwarded to a cell phone if you have one. I'd look into another phone line as suggested below; they are not that expensive (get it with no LD, just the basics and use it for your virtual call center if you can). You can write off the cost of your phone lines on your taxes on Sch. C, so they do help offset your taxes some. Or you could just try to do an extra 300-500 lines a month to cover the cost of the phone line. Good luck.
I did post a site, but it was deleted???
I don't get it.
My bad...I guess thread was deleted.
It is really irritating to have the replies deleted

It is the other huge MT website but one other time I put the name on here and they deleted it. This
is actually the first time I have really seen a lot of people on that website rip MQ because usually they have nice things to say. There are a lot of very unhappy MQrs right now.
