They probably said something that was deemed inappropriate by the mods and was removed, and now they are throwing a hissy fit.

Censorship IS acceptable, you're just annoyed someone didn't agree with you.

Government censorship, except in time of war to insure military security is totally unacceptable. On the other hand private censorship is o.k. People who own radio stations and auditoriums as private property can determine how their own property is used.

Too much of anything can be a bad thing without moderation.

Agreed. And that is the situation here, of course.

I moderate several boards and I will absolutely censor inappropriate material.

The only things I've seen "censored" around here have been things like death threats, obvious bigotry, personal attacks...

And trolling/griefing. Yanno, the ones who show up and immediately start complaining, so that it's impossible to believe that they came to WP for any reason other than to cause trouble and disrupt the community? Those are censored. How would we ever manage to discuss anything otherwise?

I think there is a difference between censorship and removing inappropriate material. If you don't know what is inappropriate... wait ... isn't that a common AS trait? :wink:
