If there's a good reason for removing it (abusive, racist, harassment or things of that nature) then do so. By the same token it must never be the prerogative of moderators to remove arguments and members they don't particularly like or agree with. If there isn't some light-touch policing here the community will fall victim to the wolves.
Agree with all of the above.Alex appointed moderators to help get rid of the spammers and abusive flame wars....if you abuse the "priviledge" they should lose the ability to mod.I think it would be good to remember that there are people on the spectrum who have poorer social skills and trying to learn them here,how will they do that if they are being banned and attacked by others?This should be based on the "rules of the foruem" and not personal vendettas or peple trying to play god.
I think some people also need to grow a thicker skin and this can be a good place to practice not letting other people control your emotions......they only have the power to effect you if you give them that power.Some times it is better to ignore the personal insults and just tell yourself....."they are ignorant,maybe they will out-grow it someday"instead of internalizing every
insult and whinning about it.
