I understand your frustration. I too have been reprimanded here, and had my posts edited by the Mods.

But I don't let it bother me since I have no expectation that unfiltered posts will be allowed on this, a private forum. Their forum, their rules. "Freedom of speech" does not apply here. I was the lead moderator on another aviation forum 4 years ago before I quit the organization... and learned a lot about why I'll never do that job again.

The owners of APC have a set of standards they want the Mods to adhere to. If I get to the point where I don't agree, my option is to go elsewhere.

I may disagree with the Mods over what they are willing to accept on APC... but it is their right to decide.

Like water off a duck...
