Annie: my main problem with deleting threads is there were only two mentions of threads being deleted in the rules. If a thread is removed for either of those reasons, fine. However, deleting a thread because "it stirs the pot" wasn't in the rules, and therefore to me, isn't enough of a reason to delete something, as well it comes across as totalitarian and censorship, and when the reason for a thread being closed isn't viewable by the members, it could breed a bad vibe among the members that causes them to withhold participation in fear of posting something against the views of the admin.

The rules are there for both the members and the admin. There for us to post by, there for you to govern by. Please use the rules, and then we won't feel like we are being unjustly governed.
No matter how the rules were written, how threads are moderated, or how the site is run some will never be happy. Which is sad in many ways but is their right, to look for reasons to be unhappy.
