Gary, you speak a lot of sence when we can actually understand you

My daughter can't have a christmas nativity play at her school in case it upsets foreign students!
We now cant even have a discussion on good or bad products in case it upsets the manufacturers!!!
As said before, if its good feedback then okay, bad then dont do it!
We buy and use these products every day to make a living, from machines to chemicals and everything in between. Why shouldn't we be able to speak in favour or against a specific company or product?
I say keep the posts running, if each person with an opinion has their say then we will all get a fair opinion of that item good or bad! Not everyone gangs up on a specific supplier or product so let posts run their couse....
I know the moderators are only doing their jobs and very well they are too, but please cut us a little slack.
We dont want this forum to turn into the free for all rant sites that are out there. We want a clean and healthy discussion forum (which this has always been). Without over censorship and allowing freedom of speech about products or services we do or do not like.
The moderators have to be there in case the odd topic or post comes up which is not suitable. But lately I feel this has been over the top!
Most of the time censored and deleted posts are unnecessary and create more interest than if they'd been let run!
Please let us talk about the products and services we use, delete any really unsuitable posts by all means but let us share information. Its a hard enough business as it is without recent informative posts being deleted giving advice on bad products.
Just my opinion,
Jason.
