One quick evident example as to why the "Free Speech" area is moderated is the existence of closed threads to which no more posts can be made. I also see there appears to be editing of posts also by navigators and directors (and advisors still too?).
I found the incidence of prometheus to be very intriguing and a very valuable learning lesson and yet, that thread was closed down within the last month with no one getting around to some gentle summary of what happened. There is a lesson, a valuable one, to learn from that incident but you guys are suppressing it. I mean, even I am not into using his real name any more as long as he stays away and/or otherwise remains congenial and that was a real stickler between me and this forum for a while there. My using his real name here was part of the reason why I was banned the first time, I think. I tried to show you the guy was bad medicine but you let him continue and gain more power and it hurt Imminst.
Honesty is the best policy though I know it is also risky sometimes as many do not appreciate it but calling "Free Speech" unmoderated does not give this forum, which is basically Imminst, credibility. I'm not saying open it up to free speech, just take the words describing it as unmoderated out of there and off into nowheresville. People might then be less inclined to post garbage in there which your necessary continued moderating would continue to demonstrate hypocrisy on your part.
