censorship, locking of threads and freedom of expression

Following from a discussion on this discussion about the way threads are locked or removed when someone if offended by the content which remain within the rules (  Why Did Number Leave This Place? ) I thought it worth having a poll to see if there in an interest in requesting a change to the way these posts are moderated.

  • Look just blame me for it. I wanted my comments removing and I couldn’t do it as I didn’t have permission so I asked the mods to do it for me. I wasn’t expecting them to lock the thread I didn’t even ask for that. I’ll send proof of my emails in screenshots if I have to! Though I would crop my email address out! I wasn’t expecting all this to happen, it’s like a volcano has erupted and it’s my fault. I wish I never voiced my views now I thought that what the forum was about. I can’t help but feel responsible but must it be rubbed in my face? If people had just understood my views of why I was uncomfortable! 

  • This isn't about you, honest, so pleased don't beat yourself up.

    It is a point of principle and about how to manage things for the best.

    You just highlighted a process issue. If you worked in a corporate role this would be a good thing. It allows for continuous improvement.

  • Thank you for your kind words Stuart, sorry I just feel such awful guilt about all this. Wish I never opened the post now if I knew all this would happen. I know you say it’s not about me but I still feel responsible and if I never said anything then non of this would have happened that’s all 

  • Oh ok well thank you. If that’s what you say. Think I will have an extra biscuit now you mention. Sorry for overreacting. Say I got diagnosed with EUPD recently as well so I feel I’ve angered everyone

  • If you hadn't said something, someone else would have exposed this eventually.

    You have provided an opportunity for discussion and improvement. This is a good thing. You should be pleased. Highlighting problems pays well in many jobs.

    There is nothing to feel guilty about.

    Treat yourself to a cake or extra biscuit :-)
