This site is "moderation-lite". I have deleted perhaps two threads, that were filled with racist comments. A post or two that graphically attributed homosexual acts to me and otherwise commented on my sexual practices/genitalia (Robin posted these). I have suspended one poster, who admitted to trying to destroy the community. For some, this is too heavy-handed I suppose. I can't please everyone. And I won't even pretend to try to.
If I were only acting on a personal level, Robin would have been banned long ago.

You make a very compelling defense and you're probably right.
I really don't know the issue well enought to make a judgment, just throwing out my perspective on the feeling I had about someone getting banned and posts getting deleted recently.
