I dont know exactly what ww posted after the virus post that was deleted and got himself banned, but so other posters know, Ill put this on the table for further discussion.
Rx has decided to hire a person, barman, to moderate its forums, that in essence, usually has been one-sided and very opinionated posting in the political forum.
Maybe its just me, but it seems a little strange that barman, one of the most active posters in the political forum, is not only antagonizing members like whalewager, who most likely disagrees with barman regarding every political subject, barman also has the edit/delete key at his disposal.
It just seems over-the-top that a moderator creates an inflamatory thread and then a veteran/regular poster is subsequently banned.
Furthermore, there were already two active threads about the topic on the first page. If Loren78 or another target of barman would have created the same thread, its likely barman would have merged the thread.
My 2 cents.
