I'd like to wait for jh7phone to defend their statements, I think trying to guess what was meant is not going to be useful.
Who owns bitcointalk.org? If someone would create a thread attacking them, saying they had unsavory business dealings, accusing them of running a ponzi, talking about how they're trying to ddos and hack it, how long would those threads last? The core problem that people have with gaw is the ponzi thing. If it isn't one, then would you still have a problem with how hashtalk is moderated? If not, then the complaints about censorship are begging the question.
If the argument is that censorship would be a problem even if the complaints about ponzi weren't true, then defend that. It's no longer obvious.
Maybe you misunderstood me?
The current level of censorship on bitcointalk is fine
Are they really that sensitive at HT that they can't handle a little heated debate? Moderating opposite opinions is a crime to the forum users and the forum creators.
Most of the people on this thread have been very polite and have not insulted or personally attacked anyone. They are just seeking the truth.
There have been many wonderful lively, entertaining, and educational threads on this forum. Ones in which moderation is not needed because the people who particpated respected one another even if they disagree.
You can have your own thoughts, opinions, beliefs and you can argue them that's what a forum is about, let's help educate others about your views and the problem of moderation and censorship will be resolved ... as it won't be needed.
I have an issue with your censorship at HT, I'm not trolling because i disagree with you.
