Yeah. It has worked out super-well for Reddit.  ::)

Do I think the moderation here is always perfect? No. I've never, personally, edited someone else's post content (at least, not without a clear note and to add content to it, not to change what they said). I will remove posts that are needlessly repetitive or inciting, though I don't think I actually have done so. Sometimes Jim edits things. He usually adds a note, and I believe he tries very hard not to change the point of the original post, but to adjust the tone or remove topics that he doesn't want discussed further.

If it was my forum, and it isn't, I don't know that I'd do that, and would probably take an either (a) delete it, or (b) stop, block, ban it tack, but I don't begrudge him that right. I think, when he does that, he is trying to be more inclusive, in leaving at least some part of the central core of the comment or request up.

But, no, it isn't perfect. I'm not perfect. None of us are. But, we do try to allow people to, reasonably, say what they want to say. It mostly works and is mostly a pretty nice place with not many flame wars or never-ending trolling contests that plague all-too-many other boards, sites, and comment sections out there. So, some things are going right.

LOL isn't this fun

I'm on vacation now, so cut it out.

Audiophiles are generally nice people. Some people on both sides of the arguments can be obnoxious.

Darkpenguin has a "dry" sense of humor.  I thought his comment was very funny: "Love audiophiles.  They so crazy."  In this context, "crazy" can mean "cute".  You have to be a native English speaker, probably an American, to get it.
