Forum moderation and wild conspiracies.

The irony here is that one of the most frequent complaints that I have heard about HLA is that they try to monitor and control what is said about them. Anyone who tries to control the communication should not be trusted.
Is that still true?
Are there now times where it is appropriate to put limits on conversation?

Personally? I don't think so. But some folks who I respect dissagree. Just look over the Seed forum. Why not? You have old buddies there, don't you? You might know one of my brothers or sisters.
But Greg runs it w/ a critical mind and a sincere interest in all viewpoints and an old fashioned sense of what is and is not civil, proper behavior for mixed company. I can't argue. Let's see what she does.
Is Deb biased? Sure. But you just go and find me someone who knows anything meaningful about this industry and who hasn't got an opinion.
I'd still like to know what, if any, connection exists between the Farell of Quirk and Quirk and the sole advocate for Randal Hinton w/ Litchfield money throughout the whole Kemper deal.
Hey, ya'll know who your critics are and where we are. We certainly don't have any carefully disguised, well funded cabal of operatives, or even carelessly so. Why are you folks so circumspect about that normally casually public info? What have you got to hide? Why are you so skeered to put your balls on the table like the rest of us?
Just something to think about
Under the benign influence of our republican institutions, and the maintenance of peace with all nations whilst so many of them were engaged in bloody and wasteful wars, the fruits of a just policy were enjoyed in an unrivaled growth of our faculties and resources.

Not scared. Just pointing out a double standard.
You make some good points though.

You've apparently misunderstood. I have no desire to monitor/control what you say to or about others. I would prefer that you own it.
There is a clear distinction between moderating and censorship.
Kids at HLA are monitored and censored, followed by swift punishment.
The HLA forum is monitored and censored. All 'opinions' are not allowed.
No one will control or punish you here unless you consider pulling in the reins on someone running amok, punishment.
I have no desire to censor or 'control' any of your opinions. I actually appreciate the participation of HLA staff (you too Suzanne), provided you post under a user name and identify as such. If you are opposed to identifying as staff/teacher/administrator (name optional), you certainly have the option not to participate.
I?m not sure moderator 'is' the appropriate term for this position. It's what the owner/software chose and what stands. It does imply an impartial, objective (impossible), mediator of sorts. I?m not impartial and have stated as much. Nor do I care to mediate personal disputes. I stated what my 'moderating' goals would be in the first post so I won?t reiterate them here.
You have a user name. Why aren?t you using it? You obviously have some resentment toward DJ. Why hash it out on a public forum? Private message him. My guess is that he?d appreciate the opportunity to talk to you.
What I have noticed thus far in the discussion of moderation is that all those opposed have user names, but posted their dissent anonymously, and have some affiliation with HLA.
We?ll see how survivors and other participants weigh in on the issue. Tomorrow is a new day.
