RE: Sign of the times we live in?

This is what the world is coming to.

Thanks for the nice writeup, I tend to agree. I am not against moderating posts, and I am all for banning any ad hominem posts. Any personal attacks are troublesome, and should be moderated.

But that's different from expressing one's opinions on some topic. For instance, if I say that I hate eating beef, why should my statement be banned. It's my personal preference. I'm not attacking anyone, nor am I threatening any person.

So my thread contained the word 'worst'; but I didn't use that negative word to denigrate or belittle any particular forum member. I was using it to denote the sound quality. Like, 'the worst sounding recording'. And it got banned just because it contains the word 'worst'.

I think that's alarming to any civilized person.
