I've noticed that open community forums remove posts only when they are too inflammatory or when derrogatory personal comments are severe enough to become disruptive. Sometimes I've seen a mod who had too much ego and couldn't accept criticism, but rarely have I seen anything more significant than that.
I've notice that many 'professional' forums are quick to remove any posts that do not promote them in the very best light. To me, this qualifies as propaganda milling, not a good demonstration of professionalism.
The above statements are not true 100% of the time, but are in fact the general trend. I hope PP will at least maintain an open forum/community.
