Another subjective opinion self-elevated to dogma. Who's "we". The barely half a dozen visitors that, maybe, have read the last couple of pages? It will take weeks, if not months, for a decent amount of visitors to read what has been posted here the last couple of days. 99% of the other times supporters and even current supporters don't visit this forum anymore regularly, because it was dead until the day before yesterday. It's better that they don't read points made? is it better that those points are buried by a few other pages and left to be forgotten? Only for those defending a deplorable status quo, I'd venture. What is wrong with repeating some very valid arguments, especially when NOTHING is being done about them? Why do you feel a military-type of censorship, "benevolently -if arbitrarily- applied", by you, is required? How come you have no interest whatsoever in engaging in any kind of conversation outside of the tech aspects of the project and, yet, you are almost paranoid about keeping "the rules" of a forum that you personally despise? What is it that brings you to the forefront with the (more or less) veiled threats? Shouldn't any moderation, if absolutely inevitable, be in the hands of the Community Manager and not in those of the tech dev?

Truth is that no matter how many times repeated, the itch for control, for silencing critical voices will always be prevalent in you. And that's precisely why it is IMPERATIVE that such potential is taken completely away from you. On to the scissors, I guess...
