I have no problem with moderated threads per-se. As long as they are open about the posting requirements. But there was nothing contained in the thread header suggesting a biased left wing pro-Democrat only posting requirement on the Enron Scandal thread.

I simply posted articles from around the web.

Don't you think the moderator of a thread has a responsibility to inform posters of the requirements before banning them? Or at least give them the opportunity to change the behavior they find offensive?

This was pure partisan censorship of the worst kind, because it's clandestine censorship. Very similar to the Foriegn Affairs thread.

Karen,

I was pre-banned from the Enron thread and I never posted to Mephisto and if I did it would not have been anything nasty, I save that for the Insult Thread.

Best regards,

NM
