so yes i understand that you don't want your precious website to be denigrated by advertisements for energy drinks and porn. You deserve to control the content. It's your forum, however, i have some critiques of how you select content for deletion:

"a. there is a higher ratio of shit-talking to content"

and so what is the different between "shit-talking" and "content"? That's completely subjective, and yes you are the mod, you have the absolute freedom to choose what goes up on this forum and what gets deleted. You have said that you delete personal attacks, this is not something i'm offended by, because people kill themselves over personal attacks and doxxing, and yes you want to control the quality of your website. However, you don't seem to be very good at telling the difference between personal attacks and more generalized attacks. Most of my attacks on here, historically, have been about either certain types of people, or people who don't seem to participate in these conversations on here. However, you delete both kinds.

"b. empty comments of support or denigration"

if it's a comment it's by this fact alone that it is not empty. Newsflash: everything is superficial, everything is about as deep as it goes. This is why as an artist i hate it when people say i'm "deep", because i've realized, i ain't much deeper than anyone else in this crazy fucking universe. Now do people have alterior motives and trojan horses? Fuck yes. Don't trust anybody.

"c. personal back and forths that mean nothing to anyone other than the two people involved (see a.)"

i don't see that you even care about any of the people on this forum, so who cares? Arguments, especially when they are most rude and vulgar, are important to any bystander!

You sound like my fucking mom: so when i say something that is troubling to you, it's immediately "an argument that should stop"? Please, enough with the patronage and censorship.
