RE: . . . . and here's another reason:

I think Audiogon have tightened censorship since the changes, and they were pretty good at it before. Of course being a private business it is their prerogative to censor content on their site. Recently there was a forum thread asking "what are your favorite LP covers?" and most replies included attached pictures as well as text responses. I proffered the Blind Faith LP cover (the one of a bare chested young lady holding a futuristic chrome jet in her hands) but DID NOT include a picture of said LP. Audiogon deleted my message nonetheless and next day I received a do not respond reply from Audiogon suggesting my post was offensive and against Audiogon rules. Audiogon the audio prude forum extraordinaire? Who knows? I suspect it's foremost about taking zero risks on anything perceived as a threat to their cash cow, to include anything they think might be controversial to another member. Best I'd stuck to LP cover showing bucolic scene of dappled light woodlands with fully clothed fairies plucking harps.
