1. Not everyone, there are like 50 something members at TGA. People were also swearing. With those priviledges, PM, stop the swearing/luring etc.

a) How did removing PM privileges stop people swearing?
b) What right have you to stop us from trying to persuade others to join our board?

Editing, you could easily edit some important material out of your posts.

What do you mean by this?

2. Up until now, all this was discussed at TGA because the people who were still upset about it were over at TGA. And that it wasn't to be discussed on the OWF.

But how can you claim to be a Board run "by the membership", when you tell us what we can or cannot discuss here? You say that people didn't want to discuss it here, but whenever people
tried to, you deleted the posts.

Again I apoligise to the members, in a way it was censoring. But if this makes you all happy to have continued arguements, then go ahead.

I do hope people aren't as easily manipulated as you seem to believe they are. Allowing criticism of the running of the Forums does not necessarily lead to arguments. And if it does, they are arguments that need to be had.
I stand by my principles. Censorship of pornographic and offensive posts, as has been practised on OWF since its foundation, is a good thing. Censorship of swearing is acceptable, if not desirable. Censorship of valid topics is unacceptable.
