As a poster in the thread below suggested, just because you don't like something in someone's log, it does not necessarily follow that the log will be removed by the VIPs. Sorry.
We delete logs that are character assassinating in their nature, either by virtue of comments made by the poster (this is the most common one), or if the implication of the log is something so blatant that it has no validity save assassination (example: posting an unedited log of successfully bribing an Arbiter... comments or no comments, that's going to get zapped). If you don't like how you come off in a particular log... sorry, them's the breaks.
Sure, I wouldn't be happy if I came across like an idiot in a log that someone else posted... but I try not to act like an idiot, to minimize the likelihood of this happening. It still happens, but then I have no one to blame but myself (unless, as noted, the intent of the poster is to specifically malign me).
If you have substantive reasons for wanting a log that isn't overtly assassinating removed, e-mail myself or one of the other "high-up" VIPs (ones who can delete posts, in other words) explaining your reasoning. But don't expect anything. Oh, and don't e-mail Dioxide... he's got better things to worry about than nit-picking over individual posts.
