I never said your post was inappropriate or anything of the sort. I never asked you for an apology. And your post hardly makes me uncomfortable. You certainly put a lot of energy into your response.
I did point out a very legit reason WHY it would be necessary to consider a fully moderated forum.
The forum we had now is moderated. The difference is in the TIMING.... (and again, I believe it's JUST the boating forum... correct me if I'm wrong here..)
I will be the first to fight for your First Amendment Right. I may not always agree - but you have the right to say it.
However, when someone else [read: Don] might get in trouble for something he or she did not say - or because posters broke rules of the forum - then moderation is the solution.
Why would anything that anyone has to say here be deleted or edited or not even posted *IF* those posters played by the rules before they hit the "POST" button?
For the record - I've had threads locked and delated. I've had posts deleted and even got into it a little with Don over a disagreement of the rules of the forum. Bottom line: it's HIS forum. He owns it. We're allowed to play here. No one is stepping on your rights when you think about it... Put yourself in the bossman's shoes for a moment...
Peace.
