So................

Why can't we in an attempt to be sure we don't make a similar terrible call, mention someone in the professional ranks by name, without fear of censorship?

Just what is being protected here. Is it the integrity of the forum, or a perceived reputation of a man paid to take a large amount of scrutiny. Doug Eddings poor mechanics were all but crucified here two years ago. It's my opinion that we all benefited from those discussions. I now have to wonder that had Eddings been acquainted with the moderators of this forum whether or not that discussion would have been heavy handed and quashed in the name of forum preservation. This whole thing was handled in the poorest of form!
