{#emotions_dlg.lol} is all I have to say

Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being positive what could go right.

Posters can hit the button all day long but Webbie decides what to poof. Plus posters have been banned for using the Report too much from what I've read here

I agree with that, and I think it's happening more and more often. I also don't believe people only report posts due to content, but often the poster.

The bottom line is that we are not the ones who decide which posts are removed and which ones remain.

Hey many asked for tighter reigns...and the Q was listening. I knew we should be careful what we wished for. I find some things around here refreshing...some a little repressive.

Re: Freedom of Speech and Though

When you're actively posting on a private shopping forum, it is their rules.

With that said.., I believe part of the blame is on too many posters pushing the report button, calling corporate, emotionally sensitive posters who cannot handle opposing views, they start Suggestion Box threads complaining of fellow posters behavior when they don't see their own behavior is questionable as well. Yes, I've kept up reading here and the board is what they aimed for "a policed board." It's now on the verge of boring and the ones who screamed the loudest are all but gone.
