RE:<...moderated (censored) thread.>

John,

I sincerely cannot believe that you are still on that old page, get over it already! The fact is that many people here challenge each others assumptions on a daily and hourly basis and all of them do so without any fear of repurcussions even when those opinions are very negative towards AMD. Please notice that no one has even remotely hinted that you be "censored" for your challenges to John Petzinger's posts, in fact John himself has welcomed the discussion and censorhip or moderation would never have even come up if you hadn't mentioned it. In fact if you just posted in the civil way that you have done thus far I don't think anyone would ever question your right to post anything you chose and that would free you from having to crusade against the non-existant spectre of censorship on this thread so that you could redirect those efforts to fighting real censorship agendas of the religious right and other radical lobbyist groups such as the ones who are currently pressuring Yahoo into removing all of their adult communities. The moderated thread is a special interest community democratically (however imperfectly) controlling their own content, the Yahoo adult groups issue is one special interest trying to limit not just what they see but rather what EVERYONE can see. Regardless of what you personally feel about adult content that is an example of real censorship, go fight it.

As for this thread, keep posting, I think you are a fine poster and I would vote against and vehemently oppose any attempt to have you banned. (unless you did something remarkable untrue to form)
