I thought we lived in a democracy?........surely, we as posters can decide what's a good debate or not..........if there was anything derogatory, then sure, delete it, but we were having debate.

YOU personally decide what you find acceptable on the posts we make, and if the posts that we make doesn't conform to your Ideology, then they get deleted I would just like to get this clarified, as you are a moderator and therefore have the ability to delete our posts, can you confirm what posts are acceptable as I'm struggling to find any faults with the highly debated AHERNE posts.
