You are fully entitled to your opinion; however, perhaps I should have explained it better: "As I have stated multiple times, both in response to requests to lock threads and delete posts and over the course of my posting history, freedom of speech remains a pillar upon which this community was built." Again, you're fully entitled to your opinion, but I do not infringe on the rights of others to speak freely here - indeed any member is free to say what they wish as long as it does not threaten the security of vendors nor buyers, and as long as they do not reveal personal information about any member. Locking a thread that has run its course and devolved into personal attacks furthering one member's personal agenda - and leaving its discussion there for all to see - is not in any way comparable to limiting freedom of speech. That is all that I am going to be saying on the matter; the issue of the locked thread has been fully explained, along with the reasoning behind that explanation. Libertas
