Moderators are here to facilitate the smooth running of this site.
Interesting that most if not all "censorship" concerns center around non outdoors topics.
Gilroy's thread was closed with rationale cited as it was a train wreck in the making.
GreatWhite post although it was at best satirical hyperbole and would of been ok the title contained derogatory terms deemed inappropriate for this site.
Censorship or just following the rules? .
One man's "censorship" is other man's "good moderation." We are guests here and there are rules. Follow them and enjoy yourself. Do otherwise and there may be consequences. It's not hard to understand.
What is there now about 1 maybe 2 posts a day? Use to be a lot more. In fact I can remember a time when most of the categories were going full tilt including the Off topic.
Now if we could just get that everywhere lolQuote:

That is another truth.
Third one is : if a restaurant has no guest coming in,to spend time and money in there......the restaurant may see grim future......
Well yes, fair point, the forum remains a good resource to learn things from other members, remain up to date on changing regulations and has plenty of good info.Quote:

The thread containing a parody of our PM had a few letters in his name switched which reflected the feelings of a healthy segment of the electorate. Is that such an issue ? Do you think Trudeau is reading these posts and finding it upsetting ? Part of getting into politics means putting yourself out there and his actions have opened him up to public ridicule. After what he has put Canada (and gun owners in particular) through - he deserves everything he gets.
Most of the current moderation team seems to be out of touch with the demographic of the forum membership.
