There are so many forums.. why care about offtopic.com or whatever...

I was never banned on any forum, but I have had my messages deleted. Actually, at one forum I was one of their advertisers... needless to say, I left. I'm pretty an*l about censorship... if it reaches a point where I disagree with the mods, I just go to a different site. Big f'ing deal... There are thousands of forums..

Oh, yea... so far anandtech seems to be pretty good no issues here... I think the mods are doing a good job...

I've found that Woot is pretty bad about deleting posts. If you post something thoughtful proving that the product on sale is crap, you can watch it go bye-bye! Amusingly, the "this product sucks!" type posts survive... they're pretty selective with their censorship. They also don't even bother deleting any posts during a Woot-Off, even though they REALLY should
