George,
We either have a censorship function which is completely * neutral * and
exists mainly to prevent junk mail or else if neutrality cannot be
guaranteed, we should not have censorship at all.
Those of us who want to make fouls of ourselves by writing nonsense should
be able to do so. Perhaps those of us who write nonsense are already
considered fouls and, therefore, other members can automatically press the
delete key when they recognise the originator of the posts.
As it stands, I would dare to say that it appears that there is a sort of
black list of members who are constantly being targeted for censorship
simply because they have a different point of view from the king censor
himself.
I particularly have a serious problem with one member of the admin team who
is far from neutral and who is not shy in revealing unsubstantiated claims
and accusations. I have complained several times to Herman in the past but
my complaints have been ignored.
We surely got rid of censorship of pre-1961 Salazar but it is very clear to
me that censorship exists in this forum and is a very active function, which
is a shame.
So, you ask what I would change?
I would remove censorship because it is clear that neutrality cannot be
guaranteed.
There you go, I said it.
How does that sound for a reply to your question?
Best,
Paulo.
PS: I changed the original subject of this thread because I do not think it
is polite to have names of individuals in the subject. I hope you do not
mind.
