censorship, locking of threads and freedom of expression

Iain

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.

  • Thank you for doing this Iain.

    If I pick the option to add a trigger warning, is it given that I would be voting also to allow the moderators to continue to use their discretion? 

    I would like to vote for the first and last option.

    I think this is covered in the last option - the moderators will judge whether the label is valid / warranted and if it is then they add the text to the start of the post or the header.

    All requests will be seen by the moderators anyway but so long as they meet the rules of the site then it seems reasonable to leave them in place, just with a warning.
