"As for the possibility of making all deleted posts available somewhere on the site, I'd say that I definitely wouldn't want that for invasions of privacy, but think a case could possibly be made for it otherwise. I'm opposed to it, but won't swear I'm "right", so I'd listen to both sides"
Well, it's tough as heck to follow some of these arguments and try to form an opinion on who's right and who's wrong when every other post is getting deleted.
If all the evidence isn't going to be on display, I'm inclined to say the heck with this site and not try to follow the discussion.
