I am now expressing my opinion that such action amounts to censorship and favoritism. This is not the first time that a moderator has deleted my post after I corrected a spelling or grammar error of a certain poster. Since numerous posters have done this hundreds of times on this forum, I cannot come up with any other explanation. What this moderator is doing is showing favoritism to someone that he knows, and I have lost a great deal of respect for this person because of that. I just wanted everyone else to know.
Nevada, come on. You know that the sole intent of your post was to yank Jeff's chain, not to teach any damn grammar or spelling lesson. Don't whine when the mods are just doing their job.

Note that this is coming from probably the all-time leader of deleted posts on this forum too. The guys that moderate here have a tough job with all of the A-type personalities involved, but they still do their job very well imo.
