That's just ridiculous and I think management as well as new hires would respond positively to an improvement in the mood and quality of discussions on forums.
So, if the "mood and quality" of these forums were improved, but the realities of working for these carriers does not, does this REALLY help the future hapless new-hire pilot or does it serve the interests of those other then new-hire pilots ?

I'd argue the latter. All that occurs is another generation of clueless pilots wanders into the path of a well known rogue mack truck because well-known "dirty laundry" was swept under the rug. That's NOT going to solve the regional industry problem just like censorship isn't solving any issues in China. This industry is in the situation it is in exactly BECAUSE of such a dysfunctional philosophy and new efforts at making it more covert won't solve anything.
