This is in regards to the thread on qrz.com.

I have started sending this to members of the site. Are you going to
address this issue? If not the next step will be the sponsers. I wonder
what a capitalistic business will think of the sensorship on an opinion
page. I'm not going to stop this campaign untill you reign in your mods.
There is no reason that they just up and shut down some of the threads
that they shut down. And if a thread is shut down there should be more
of an explanation other than, "I don't like it. I can shut it down and I
deem it so". Address this issue openly on the board. If not. Let the
games begin.

Opinions and Editorials
New Hams



If this is what the MEMBERS of the board want to discuss on the, now
read this part twice if you must. "Opinions and Editorials" section of
the forum than we will do it regardless of what you say, do or think.
These are our OPINIONS on the issues of the day. Whatever that may be.
You and the other mods need to grow some rhino skin and just learn to
ignore posts that you don't care for and stop being a tin star sheriff
who thinks his ass weighs a ton. Build a bridge. Get over it and your
self. We all ignore posts that we don't care for. We are adults.
Evidently you are incapable of doing so. and don't give me this crap
about it being for the greater good of the masses. You sobs sound more
and more like our elected officials every day. We will, for the most
part self regulate ourselves. I see it as just a power trip for you and
the other mods. I do agree in some regulation on the board but on a
forum that has the word "OPINION' in it. Come on, lets be real. It will
run it's course all on it's own. I speak for more than a few on the
board. You think you are way more important than you really are. Open
the thread back up and watch what happens. It will get old eventually
and revisited occasionally but so what!? It is an OPINION page! Just
because you don't care for it is pretty much saying that we are only
allowed to post things that suite your opinions. And that sheriff is
utter BS. When you lay down in bed tonight think about a purple horse,
first that is something that you will never get out of your head and
second think about how utterly controlling you are being on a forum
titled "Opinion". Think man think! What your doing here is no way to run
a board. It is a power thing on your end regardless of how you want to
justify it.

It is strongly urged to reconsider the closing of the thread and others
that have been closed for reasoning that can only be understood by the
mods. I guess you are a little like the Government, You seem to think
that only you know what is good for us. What a bunch of crap.

Go to the site and see for your self. Hammer the point home. Just asking
for a little help fellow hams. www.qrz.com

Not sure exactly what thread you're referring to, but qrz.com is a not a
public forum, it is a privately owned website, so, the owners can do what
they want with it.

Now I get it... you're the owner of QRZ, and you don't like what some of
the moderators are doing?

Just think of it this way, in NGs, if you don't like to view
something/someones-text, you simply plonk them.

On a private site, if you don't like what someone else says, you can
stop everyone else from seeing what they say -- IF you are a moderator.
(Moderated NGs serve the same function(s) i.e., you can control what
other people say, and who views it.)

Your only error is giving others the right to censor what you see, and
then complaining about it! If you don't like it, don't empower them ...

JS
