Funny thing.

It seems that the most revolting personal insults are OK here?
But for a simple innocent thing like re-viving an interesting topic - which is only good for a forum - and well meant - one might get banned in the end.

Paradoxical.

You are free to leave the forum if you have issues with how it's moderated.

Do people leave a broken country or attempt to fix what's broken about the country?

Do you have any problems with the accurately applied and colorful use of the words "fucking", "shit", "assholes", "fuck", "motherfucking"?

Do these words scare you, or something, ya baby?

Is this equivalent to leaving a forum?

I don't mind if anyone leaves or stays, just grow some skin. This dude included.

Why not?

Well, the import of leaving an internet forum and becoming an ex-patriot would seem to be on slightly different levels of importance. My "Forums" tab is filled with the dead links to forums I didn't seem to fit into.
