Sorry to harp on rabbit, but you are so provocative! I quote your post in the thread you closed earlier:
<<most of the authors are adult (imagine that on an adult site) and see a mutual benificial agreement here ---They get published for free --even if there work does not start out as superior works ---and the site gets rights to post that publication ---Now I will admit some authors who have learned to write thru the feed back they gained on the site ---think they should be able to have their stories removed>>
The arrogance and condescension of the phrase 'some authors who have learned to write through the fedeback they gained on the site' is just breathtaking. Particularly since the author that this whole thread was sparked by certainly had no need to 'learn' anything here. What would he learn from a unanimous set of glowing reviews and 10/10 marks!?
But what's really irritating is your bizarre inability (or deliberate obtuseness) to see that none of this has anything to do with the adult age requirement, whatsoever. Rather, it is to do with the author in question feeling badly treated because the notice he got about his being banned from posting a comment was terse and unexplained.
The simple act of the notification mentiong that the reason was age verification required by email would have avoided the entire argument.
