Some forums don't allow for discussion of black powder manufacture because of the webmaster's concern over civil liability. That is their right to do so and it is not censorship by the government. Their website, their rules.
Most folks don't know that at the outbreak of the American Revolution there was a shortage of blackpowder. Instructions were printed in the newspapers and production became a cottage industry among the rebels/patriots. Of course, the quality varied immensely and the powder issue wasn't resolved until the French helped out.
