Thread Name: Belonging to the 'folk' family
Subject: RE: Belonging to the 'folk' family
Been watching this and other threads for a while now. Why are posts from Lizzie persistently removed? Always found the folk world to be a friendly place but their messageboards are something else. Poison seems to drip from the mouths of people on here and elsewhere, who may be decent enough when you meet them, but they sure do enjoy laying in to artists and particular posters. There are many worse posts on this thread that should be removed but one person is continually singled out. It is not complimentary to the folk world or to Mudcat and the idea of a folk family has taken a severe battering on this thread, not because of Lizzie, but because of those who seek to silence and exclude her. Our world should be inclusive with everyone coming under that umbrella 'warts and all' as another poster mentioned earlier on.
