Censorship - Another thread to be deleted?

[Steel God]

Gents;

I posted the following on all boards in September. It's still "stuck" to the top of every message board. It is the policy I wish to see enforced across all forums. If anyone has any questions about it, please feel free to contact me via PM or email (I don't read the forum boards regularly, sorry). Unless someone has reported a post as offensive, or an obvious line has been crossed, I would like the discussion to be less moderated, not more moderated, however if everyone insists on pissing on each others shoes on the boards, and not using the reporting mechanism when they feel lines have been crossed, than it's kind of hard to fault the forum moderator from shutting it down.

And yes, these rules apply to everyone, through the appropriate levels of authority.

Effective immediately we have changed the way in which the forums will be moderated. The Club rules remain the same in regards to what is permissible, but from now on, if you feel that a line has been crossed, and a post violates the posting rules, please use the report button at the bottom of the offending post. You can read the specifics in the Rules Section, or click here:

This is NOT intended to stifle differences of opinion. This is for reporting violations of the posting rules, and abuse of members. It provides 2 benefits. One, it benefits the members, who can report a violation privately without having to fear inadvertently starting a flame war; and two, it benefits the moderators by relieving them of the burden of having to make judgments on what offends and what does not. Clear violations of the posting rules will still be moderated, but borderline posts will be left to stand unless someone reports them. We believe this new method will be an improvement.

Thanks for your cooperation.
