Bob,

These eDigital posters act like their board is the only one on iHub. I've seen the threats like:

1. If you don't get rid of the bashers, we will move en masse to Agora.

2. Leave us alone. Let our moderators censor the "bashers", else were going to leave.

This site has a great set of TOU's. That's all it needs. If the entire site were to bow to the "tyranny" of a set of posters on a single board, it will have a far-reaching and negative impact on the entire site, IMHO. I sent Matt a PM on this. Specific-stock boards should not be changed. I manage one of those boards and cringe to think what would happen if moderators were given free reign over the board to censor "bashers" outside the existing TOU's or competing stock-specific boards were allowed to be established. It would eliminate what sets iHub apart from the rest.

I ask that both you and Matt consider the huge impact setting such a precident would have on the site in general. Please focus on the forest, not the trees.

Thanks for listening.
