The topic of this conversation does indeed bother me. Why are posts being deleted or complained about? I have been too lazy to read the Agoracom rules, but this ability to request deletion of posts or stripping people of hub status is completely contrary to an open end forum. I have not read anything here lately that is disruptive to content or rude in tone. I agree with Player that contrary opinions do form the basis for a possible exchange of thought. As long as a post does not contain rude or bashing language, we should be very wary of deleting posts. Of course, now that I have said this, I hope I will not be banned.
