RMweb Gold tomparryharry Posted March 13, 2023 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 13, 2023 The chances are usually that the photo depicts people who are not supposed to be there, hence the banning. I can remember someone getting 'stick' for photographing the building of a car park on a Sunday. The object of the photograph was a local history project.

Interesting. In that case the definition of an 'incident' in this case is people being where they are not normally meant to be and presumably 'railway interest' means that the photograph must have a locomotive in it! 1 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold BoD Posted March 13, 2023 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 13, 2023 So... ... you are posting about and incident banning you for posting about an incident which incidentally isn't and incident and ....

RMweb Premium Reorte Posted March 13, 2023 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 13, 2023 Look at all that churned-up ground! Must be an incident! And not, for example, where some digging's been going on for sleeper replacement. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It took them about 2 months to tell me that a post I'd reported (somebody comparing a black politician to a monkey) didn't breach their community guidelines. The moderation on a lot of social media like Facebook is a token gesture designed to show politicians that they are 'doing something' and don't need any kind of external intervention. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must be in the RED bracket now; retired extremely dangerous. Is there any way to appeal? The Railway Photograph Group have suspended me for a week. I contacted the admins and just got a curt reply showing the two "rules" I broke - showing an "incident" and posting something "not of railway relevance". I've posted this to other groups with no problem and got many "likes". Can't see why they took exception to this image, posted below. Maybe they had a bad day? Best off out of it, and remove any of your old pictures from their silly little group. 1 3 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
