The problem is mods assume that everyone reads every subgroup. I thought the the idea of subgroups was to present certain types of threads together and not force the reader to go to every thread. Even Chas found it appropriate to open 2 threads on open carry this week. Threads that are opened in the legislative are not read by as many people, but takes on a different character than messages than threads in the General forums or political forums. We never used to be so heavy handed, and I believe the general groups were much friendly and less restrictive appearing than it is now. This heavy handedness seems to be only a month or two old .

A gentlemen post some exciting news about us being allowed to carry in national parks. It really did take away a little bit from the joy to have that thread censored. Don't some topics deserve a couple of threads?

One of the mods suggest that its too much work for them to have more than one thread. Maybe more mods is the answer. Maybe the real question Are the Mods more important or the readers/ posters". Now understand that the mods work hard and may be under appreciated for what is huge effort. But I remember when we didn't have much moderators, the board was much more readable and the tone was friendlier. We have grown since, but I don't believe we have to be quite as heavy handed as we are.
