Since I've been coming here, and keep saying I'm not going to return, the major criticism aimed at this boards managment seems to lean at too much control. We constantly read "what happend to my post, why was it deleted?", or about whole threads being removed. People have personalities, and that often leads to difference of opinions/conflicts, which in turn, can, in most cases be very educational. Many ppl may not like DIR, but I know I learned a lot from the discussions and arguments, and from what I read, so did many others. I don't beleive that bashing someone, or some group should be tolerated, or the post left standing, but if post are removed, it should be done with an explaination. Of course the hard part in some cases is figuring out what the fine line is between someone bashing someone or something, as opposed to just voiceing a different opinion.
