Peter,
Noone's posts are being removed for having an open discussion. If a post is deleted, it's probably because it violated the posting guidelines.
The site is not censored and I can assure you that in the > 7 months this forum has been running, the number of posts that have been deleted I could count on my hands and feet - and most of them were deleted due to spam and off-topic in serious threads.
Posts are not removed just because a moderator doesn't agree with what someone says. If you believe this does happen, please provide me an example and i'll follow it up. Especially if you claim it's a "disturbing trend".
If you're referring specifically to Paul's (rumples riot's) thread last night, then it was deleted by me due to the sensitive nature of the content, and it was a discussion that needs to happen in private between the moderators. It's not a discussion I'm about to see take place on an open forum.
If you believe there are other examples of where threads are deleted without warning or reason, please email or PM me with details because to my knowledge, it just doesn't happen. Other threads you thought had been deleted, had merely been moved to the appropriate forum. Sometimes redirects are left in the original forum, sometimes they're moved without a redirect.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me via email or PM if you want to discuss it further.
Thanks
