Posts & Moderation
Here on this Forum, debate is heartily encouraged, a free exchange of ideas is welcomed, and an open discussion of pretty much anything is always the bottom line policy. Members should feel free to express their ideas, opinions, and thoughts, without fear of repercussion, reprisal, or what a Moderator, Sponsor, or Administrator might think. However, the manner in which that occurs is sometimes an issue. As long as there is no pornography, objectionable material, and most importantly personal attacks, there is rarely a reason for a Moderator to step in, and the discussions are allowed to continue on their own uninterrupted.
At no time is it the intention or desire to censor anyone here. No Moderator or Administrator will be allowed to force onto the Forum his personal agenda, nor will his views and opinions be given any more weight than those of anyone else.
There is a common misconception that free speech means you can say whatever you want. This is not exactly the case. Objectionable material, inflammatory remarks, personal attacks, name calling, and derogatory comments are not in the best interests of the community, will not be tolerated, and will be dealt with immediately. Sponsors, while afforded some degree of insulation, and certainly all due respect, will be expected to support their claims, and be forthright in their business dealings, and will not have carte blanche.
We hope that there will never be a need to edit or censor anyone. As long as things stay civil, regardless of the position a member might take on a subject, or the content of a post, there should be no need to moderate, edit, or censor anyone.
There may be need for a Moderator to send you a request to reword something, which might be taken wrong. Due to a lack of vocal inflection, and tendency to respond quickly without considering what someone else might read into something, it is very common in this kind of venue for someone to condense what they might otherwise be more verbose in saying, to a point where intention and meaning might be confused. Please understand that it is not an attempt to tell someone what to say, but rather an attempt to have you reevaluate what is being read, and adjust accordingly.
The open exchange of ideas is exactly why this site far surpasses any of the others. It was the Mission Statement when the new owners took over. That has not changed. We hope to continue in the tradition that this site's founder established, and continue to be the preeminent 968 site.
