It's your forum so do what you want, but you aren't getting another dime from me until you fire your moderators!

Hell, I'll make a donation to balance this out.

An unmoderated forum is an unreadable forum. Without moderation the messages would sink in even more flame wars. Moderation is not censorship, moderation is necessary.

Precisely. That is what was happening before Jim/John invented moderators. I was once flamed for making what I thought was a well reasoned comment to a discussion. One of the parties thought that he was in a private discussion, rather than a public thread.

I agree. Moderation is quality control.

That is interesting. Of course this forum grew to fame with all most no moderation. Only the most severe abuses were pulled. Of course that was when mostly conservatives hung around here. Those were the days.
