I object to you closing my poll "Who's next?" in the Politics forum. No-one else even suggested the poll was offensive or insensitive until you closed it. Far from being insensitive to the countries mentioned it was a biting comment on the US policy of global domination. I don't believe anyone in the countries I mentioned would be offended. They would see it for what it was. I think the only people who might be offended are Americans who don't like their hippocracy or aggressive tendencies pointed out to them.

I have deliberately posted this on the feedback forum and not sent this to you in a PM. I believe that everyone should be able to see and know what kind of censorship is practiced in PF.

I have gotten many emails that the PaWA forum has gotten rude, crude and offensive.

Then why don't you make a specific topic discussing "US policy of global domination" instead of listing countries like they are on the gallows.

I don't believe anyone in the countries I mentioned would be offended.

I'm sorry you have that perception, but I have evidence that supports otherwise.

They would see it for what it was.

And what would that be. What purpose could that topic possibly hold?

In order to maintain PF as a constructive and educational place, moderation is necessary. I wouldn't call it censorship as I have left the topic visable for anyone to read, but further discussion is not useful.

Laser Eye, I want you thank you for bringing this up. This is a global community and we can't make everyone happy. Hopefully we can come to some understanding on this.

I objected. Did you not notice?

Oh booo hooooo. I guess I wasn't reading when I registered how PF reserves the right to censor whatever whenever whyever...
Maybe it could mean you need to put more thought into your post?
