FG, this whole censorship issue is a problem and I think it inhibits the overall success of this board. You stated that the policy is as follows:

"As a result, Personal Attacks, Slander against Posters or the Company, Spam, etc... are removed... Fair and untainted criticism of SEVU and Management have always remained.."

That seems fair but the real concern is the determination of what one poster feels is "fair criticism" might be judged by another as a personal attack or slander. The censorship issue in a nutshell.

I still like the suggestion I made back when this board was first started. We need a trashcan area where deleted posts could be stored and read if desired, perhaps even a way for other posters to comment on them. This allows the primary board to remain "clean" as interpreted by the chairman/directors, but eliminates the criticism that iHub is a one-sided board.

As I remember Matt liked the idea, but no action was ever taken. Perhaps it should be reconsidered, and might even make iHub the board of choice by potential investors.
