So, now the ones that had good discussion with them, can not do so any more because of someone’s subjectivity.
It's not just about subjectivity. Sometimes its a matter of violating the terms of service.

Well, to be fair, they never really understood the objections to the system's claims. And they have a vested interest in defending the claims - they're an important part of the system's value, maybe even what makes it work for them.

But then again....isn’t the formation of any TOS based on the subjectivity of the person writing the TOS?
Critical thinking can be your path to enlightenment.....
The topic was the subjectivity of what is considered a good discussion on a forum. Points and counterpoints were made.
You know when someone runs out of valid counterpoints when ilrelvent topics are brought into the discussion.
The regulars in question were actually people like Low500, Spidey and English, who bludgeoned opponents into submission with 1000-word contentless posts and repeated unhinged personal attacks.I’ve seen this happen else where.....a small sore of regulars wants to control the forum to their liking and their liking alone.

How can I say this diplomatically?
June 25 is the date when it appears that a mass exodus has occurred. I thought that was supposed to happen after a book was published, but I guess there's no time like the present. Time will tell. Will the aiming forum become an interesting place for good discussion or will it become irrelevant and deleted? Again, time will tell.
Personally, I think it is worth giving it a shot and I think recent posts like Pat's are a good start.
The owners of the site don't have an obligation to host a free speech forum, and the tone of things here reflects, maybe unfairly but unavoidably, on them and their business.bans should be reserved for people who actually threaten or menace others
...Posts and especially threads should be deleted only rarely and extremely selectiveley
Nice to be able to make a simple comment like that without setting off a storm of loud objections, insults and general mayhem. Kinda like a “forum” where “conversation” happens.I’ll still be open minded about cte but Mr. Shuffet had better figure out a way to explain it better because so far he hasn’t.
Once again, what is uninviting is totally subjective. Why there just might be some that think the great PJ makes this forum univiting, and I am sure there are those that think the same of me.
Then again, it is totally subjective.
What is and is not uninviting on the forum is all based on personal opinions, bias’s and prejudices.
