I moderate several other boards, so I see the need for a policy to be in place.
However, it's no different than officiating. Are you going to call the game strictly by the rules, never deviating from the written code, or are you going to officiate the spirit of the rules, telling kids to get out of the lane or ignoring the occasional palming?
As has been said, this is a community. Why should we have to go somewhere else to discuss things among ourselves? I can understand deleting flaming topics about race, religion, or politics. But a little friendly banter about baseball, during the offseason for basketball. C'mon!
Sorry Bob but I think you were wrong. Hopefully, Brad will clarify this issue, for everyone.
I vote: CHUCK!
