If the Shambles did ignore all these posts ... then this thread wouldn't exist ... and we would be deprived of reading and posting to this thread which continues to exist because it is prove that we are free to post and exercise our freedom of expression (regardless of others opinions).

I would agree that this one thread does just about still demonstrates this.

The fact that it littered with various attempts to prevent discussion of its subject - and is only limited to this one thread demonstrates how close our forum is becoming to having this right of freedom of expression taken away from us all by a very few short-sighted posters.

And how much effort must be put in to ensuring that those few posters - who are seen to be prepared to use just about every means and attempt any justification to take this right away from posters and for the very slightest of reasons - never succeed on our forum.
