I have to disagree: there is no less "control" in CTF now than there has been in the past (though different CTF moderation boards have held subtlely different views on what is, and what is not, acceptable). >in my opinion i think it is actually harmful to ICD to be associated with the >CTF as it exists now >if i were an owner or shareholder in ICD i would insist on real moderation on >the board or its elimination altogether >i wouldn't want my business to be associated with a board brimming with racial We have been removing racist posts as quickly as they have been reported to us. IMO, racism has not been a major problem during the current moderation period. >slurs,hate mongering,anti-semetism,etc,etc Anti-semitism is a subset of racism. So long as anti-semitism is not confused with criticism of the policies of the Israeli government, then there really isn't very much of it. >we have very excellent moderation on this board so why not on the CTF? >if we as members can manage to stay on target here, why must we allow racial >slurs and USA hate mongering remain on the CTF any of which in the off-line I cannot identify with your claim that CTF contains a high proportion of, "USA hate mongering".
