If I recall correctly, the whole COB concept and the ability to delete posts were introduced at the same time Jenna moved. I don't doubt the censorship features were probably added at her request.

That recollection is incorrect. I know they had the CoB feature in place the first time I looked in February. And I'm sure it was there long before that.

I agree with you, it's sickening to see her (and others) simply silence their critics while using their threads as a personal soapbox

Without an admin in place who will oversee ALL deletions, that *could* happen. I know that at least since Thursday it simply hasn't and *won't*.

So I think some people are worked up about a possible abuse (in the same way moderation can be abused here) but aren't putting much faith in my statements that I simply won't allow that feature to be abused. Again, that's okay. Time will prove me right on this. I didn't allow the one-sided free-for-all stuff here, so I'm not sure why people think I'll allow it there.
