A few issues were raised on the boards a few days ago,which I don't want to drag up here, which resulted with some members threatening to boycot the forum.
The forum by it's nature is a medium by which posters can express their views in a democratic way expressing a wide variety of opinions, it can be informative,interesting and sometimes hilarious.
This is an adult forum and censorship should not be the route to take (within it's boundaries of course) a path that can be a danger to take. The problem of course is when it becomes personal rather than a personal viewpoint.
Looking at the news from around the world where people are still fighting for free speech and democracy(!) and indeed with a general election looming, a boycot is not the way to go,unless you have a balanced discussion from all sides, it allows the minority to shout loudest.
