Moderation/Censorship Poll and surely more...


Hi. 

I'm here over 8 years and back then, I think the moderation guidelines were much lighter than today.  I think it's okay to have all foolish posts of ebm instead of removing part of them IMHO. 

Having that as a fact would you like to

A) Leave it same way?

B) Bring more rules?

C) Decrease rules?

I think the rules here are fine. As I've noted before, those that protest most loudly against moderation usually have the least to contribute.

Also, moderation ≠ censorship. They are two different things.

+1. This place would be better for all if we simply observed that simple premise. And in my time here, that seems to be the overriding standard that moderators here such as @tammyholt apply. Sorta a Golden Rule for an audio forum. It's been a good approach, imo.

It is until one of your threads gets removed because of posters just out to destroy open conversation with negative, rude comments.

Yup, that's a problem for sure. Just take a look at this thread!

I was merely pointing out that there exists a small minded little group of individuals ...

You are correct about the "small minded" individuals. I'm one of them but I don't know how large our "little group" is.

My actual brain (not my head) is about the size of a walnut, doctors tell me. They can't figure it out! Before retirement I succeeded in my chosen career, and I've stayed happily married to a great lady, assembled a great hi-fi system, and even find time to participate in a few audio forums and solve Wordle every day. And I do that all with a brain the size of a walnut. C'mon, you have to admit that is  pretty amazing! Imagine what I'd accomplish if I had a normal brain, like you may have. It's sad that we'll never know.

But don't feel sorry for me. My sister's brain is about the size of a grape, and she's one of the smartest people in my family. You'd be impressed if you met her.
