Thanks for the post Rob.

From my personal experience and with my own sites, I've never had a problem with members posting technical questions in their blogs or whatever they wanted, as long as it wasn't spam or anything too crazy. At times, the blog would bring out some of the best answers and solutions. Other times, it turned into flame wars...just like here sometimes.

However, over here it's a bit different. It is a current BoonEx rule that technical questions be posted in the forums.

I see more kinda thought it was a simple rule. If it's a technical question, ask it in the forums.

If other blogs were deleted and were not technical questions then it was most likely a mistake. You'll need to take it up with BoonEx. Moderators can only hide blogs and contrary to what you've said Rob, we do not delete them.
