You're never going to get that to happen. There seems to be a very wide variety of mentalities on this board. Which I happen to like. Some of them don't agree with my thoughts. Works for me.

This is actually a pretty good board. I haven't ever been bothered by moderators whose posts would suggest they have the biggest bones to pick with my opinions. The only moderator who ever deleted any post I made seemed to be in agreement with the concepts I was espousing. I think he did it more to preserve my credibility than to punish me.

This tells me that the moderators try to err on the side of freedom of speech. And that explains why they sometimes have to do crackdowns. It keeps things lively and interesting and discourages egregious offenders.

Hope you stay with us.
