XenaGuy, first of all, I don't have anything against you personally. You seem a fairly decent guy, and you actually responded and explained the last time I questioned an edit, which was refreshing.
But, while I don't actually know what was in the text you removed, I assume it was something about the old. Given your age, I would just say that, as a moderator, you should not make edits based on personal feelings.
Either disallow generalizations about groups, or allow them, but don't edit them only if they apply to yourself.
Twerker making a statement directed at DBL and saying that he's waiting for him to die is kinda low, don'tcha think?

It had nothing to do with with Xena Guy's age bracket that prompted him to remove Twerker's comments,Twerker stepped over the line by inciting his presumption that only the older generation like DBL are conservative and assumed the younger generation to be be entirely liberal which Xena rightly pointed out was simply not true. Moreover Twerker's desire for DBL's generation to die out was out of line.

Anyways...
How do you think I actually think And what mindset is it you "sense" pray tell

I don't know Twerker, seems to be an extremely callous position you have taken here;

That's a far cry from wishing death upon the very person you're debating. Got another hair you want to split? A goal post you want to move?

I didn't say it wasn't something to incite, I said it was one of many and regular statements in these sections which do, but yet one of the very few which are moderated.
One of the very few censored, and which just happening to be a statement about the old, removed by a mature moderator.
And I should also note that the two people who responded to my comment are also both 'mature.'

Uhm. No, Tex.
If you perhaps thought that I was making some subtle point by including in my quote from dbl him talking to Twerker, like some kind of pot calling the kettle black thing.....I wasn't. I wrote the above several days ago.
But If that was actually what I meant, assuming I have you correctly there, It's not hair splitting to say that the accuser is guilty of the crime.
It wasn't, though. The reason for my posting is contained both in the quote above and in the thread itself. Pages 3-5, whereabouts.
