This thread is meant to be respectful and I hope that any else who feels compelled to comment will act likewise. I am sure that the moderators have a time consuming and tough job, so I do not want them to take this as a personal slight, but I do not understand the "trimming" that occurred on the "PCR @ MCFG" thread.

I read it as it developed, and unless I missed something, it was entirely civil. Plenty of politics, but nothing mature adults can't stomach. Short of inappropriate or hostile comments, I have trouble understanding a need for censorship. At the end of the day, an individual person is held responsible for what they say. Plenty of us have had disagreements on the board and they generally end amicably. This board is not GT or any of the others and seems to be respectable, so why clear out threads? I apologize if there was something inappropriate that I missed (and would explain these questions). It seems that the PCR thread in particular should be of interest to readers because it was talking about how gun owners are restricting gun owners, and thats a big deal to some folks.
Again I do not have what it takes to be a moderator, and so I feel a bit sheepish giving constructive criticism, but it seems their job would be less tough and less time consuming with a laissez-faire attitude. As a parting shot, I have in the past always been impressed how Fenway would stay in the wings and let people banter, as long as it didn't get hostile.
I am aware you could block my IP for this but I felt compelled to write.
