It definitly is censorship, but definition aside I would just like to say I disagree with the practice of deleting posts without a explanation being given. Everyone gets off topic etc on occasion and my slightly sarcastic remark about a person's inclusion of tax into the savings one could make on their sale was far from worthy of deletion. When moderators do not require the extra step of an explanation, I believe they no longer think things through as they can just click "delete".

As for this board changing, I guess I chose my words wrong. The board is great, the members are great, I just find the rules a little too strict now. (Maybe the rules has always been in place, but until now I had never seen it used and I have seen quite a few posts worthy of deletion in years past far outweighing my little comment) I miss Bob's gruff attitude and grammar checks.

But like you say. Their forum, their rules! Live with it or go somewhere else.

I have said my peace.

Love you all!

You are a victim of history. Too many times, threads in the buy and sell went down in flames because some people strongly disagreed with the asking price...even though they never had any intention of buying

Now it's just easier to do away with all superfluous posts
