You can't win, Q. Some hothead wants his precious words to be on the screen to revisit and feel powerful at having posted them. If they disappear, a new thread complaining about the jackboot moderator tactics appears.

Lizzie, you're welcome, but giving with one hand and taking with the other is one reason why there are so many critics. Try leaving out all of the pre-analysis of how you think people will respond when they're at their worst. Just name your topic, state your opinion, and leave the preemptive strikes out. Then moderators can remove the overt attacks by others. If you attack first, those responses are less likely to be removed.
