That’s a real drag, in my opinion.
The deletion of John’s post precludes the possibility of ever “evaluating it on its own merits,” to quote a wise man.
Also, consider the quote from your sig:
“The keyboard is mightier than the gun.”
Now, I’m not equating post-deletion with gun-pointing, but it’s definitely a use of “the keyboard” which runs directly counter to the sentiment your quote expresses.
I’m not blaming you. I’m just suggesting that we “kiddies” shouldn’t be so quick to “run to the authorities.”
And, in John’s defense, and in defense of honest discussion (even when it gets nasty), I hope you’ll join me in asking the moderator to please restore John’s deleted post.
