Here is info, rules, on the topic at hand.

Don't interfere with forum moderation
Don't post messages about site rules, enforcement, juries, hosts, administration, alerts, alerters, removed posts, appeals, locked threads, or anything else related to how this website is moderated (except in the Ask the Administrators forum).
Why we have this rule: The purpose of Democratic Underground is to discuss politics, issues, and current events. Open discussion of how the website is run tends to distract from our core purpose.

DU is a privately owned forum with rules. If you want a forum with no rules, there are other ones. If you want to question the rules, it's best to do that in ATA forum to minimize chances of being hidden for breaking the rules. This is not a threat, simply information.

I am curious how you say you have been here since DUs opening with a sign up date of 2005. And, fwiw, I do not appreciate insulting PMs.

Then you understand that a private forum having rules is not censorship. Have you tried uppityperson Jul 2017 #9

People really need to re-read that definition of censorship. This isn't censorship. Squinch Jul 2017 #5

I have a pretty good grasp of the English language. Quanta Jul 2017 #7

I agree with Squinch. cwydro Jul 2017 #11
