Default The paranoia on this board is comical

Seems the mere mention of certain funding practices being employed by some poker sites gets your post deleted/removed from the forums.

I get that some people count on online poker as a means for a part, or in some cases, all of their income. I also get that 2+2 gets alot of traffic and readers to the forums. I also get that people get nervous when they feel that sensitive information might be put out there that they may not want certain people to see.

What I don't get is how self-righteous the moderators of this board can be at times concerning things like this. The last I heard this was a public forum where people can express their thoughts and opinions. I didn't realize that we could express our thoughts and opinions as long as they don't express something that could be read by somebody who might work for some bank who might inform their employer that they might be dealing with a gambling site when they see a certain charge come across from their customers.

It isn't as if a post like this contains Imus-like language or racial hatred. It's a post about an experience that I had and a truthful representation about what the poker site that I deposited at is most likely engaging in when you make a deposit. Sorry, but deleting that post was just ridiculous and paranoid in my eyes. If you think that the forums of 2+2 have that kind of impact on society that someone might read that post and it will put an end to whatever options might currently be available to poker players out there for funding their accounts then maybe 2+2 should set itself up as a lobbying group and back a candidate for the next presidential election.

This post will probably get deleted/removed as well since I'm voicing a negative opinion on the moderating practices of this forum. However, I decided to write what was on my mind. In this country I'm alledgedly allowed to do that.
