"although nothing I say will make you any happier with things." Well, PC, you are wrong. I am pointing out an inconsistent enforcement of the TOS, because that is the way it appears when all the other comments/posts with the same verbiage are left to remain. Personally, I nor anyone else could force anyone to be fair and impartial. However, public perception in a public arena carries a lot of weight. "Mosca's comment was removed because he used his language in violation of the TOS despite his protestations in other threads that he has tried to remain civil, you see perhaps there are inconsistancies on both sides...oh but that couldn't be could it?" Well, if the comment was left (and IIRC you removed your comment stating you deleted Mosca's - further removing the evidence) then perhaps I would have seen the context and agreed with you. However, when you censor someone, then remove all evidence of ever doing it, what are people to expect? If you have nothing to hide, then hide nothing. "Now some people can bleat and wail and moan all they like...in fact I expect they still will...but that's it for me with this particular discussion." Ahh, so when people challenge the mods/admins in a civil manner trying to get information, the best thing to do is bow out? Personally, I could care less about how you do things or the motivations. If you cannot see that this is trying to be a "learning thread" on public perception/relations, perhaps working with the public is not your calling. "There are a hell of a lot more real injustices in the world that maybe you should think about addressing first if you are so passionate about inconsistencies." The usual cop out: denigrate or try to invalidate the current discussion by introducing subject matter that is not handled on the site. Show me the R'osity "World Hunger" or the "Battered Women and Children", etc, forum and I would be glad to discuss anything you wish within the context of the forum. I guess trying to stay on topic somehow negates the discussion because "there are other things in the world you should worry about". This kind of proves that the mods/admins "hear" the members, but they do not "listen".
