I didn't twist your words. I quoted you directly. You said it was practical to censor spam threads, therefore you agree that some forms of censorship are permissible. Otherwise you should be arguing to allow the spam threads. BTW, I was here a year ago, and there wasn't nearly the problem of spammer-scammers let alone trolls and people spreading FUD. Times change and the honeymoon is over. You can't compare a year ago to today. During the November down time, there was an organized disinformation campaign, most likely by members of BMR, claiming the site was hacked, people were going to get doxxed, etc. The forum has been getting increasingly shitty over time and proper moderation is the only way to combat it.
