New policy for the Cellar

[Whit]

      First off, thank you Warch. Your openness was appreciated.
      Now, with that said... No mention of privacy was made in UT's initial post on this thread. What he said was,

If I feel a thread has an overall negative effect, I will delete it.

      So all of you sounding off about privacy must have skipped the beginning of this thread. That is a huge difference. Plus, the situation mentioned here wasn't being discussed in Syc's thread. So, using this as a reason for deleting that makes no sense. I say that because I think that everyone that's coming down on Syc for his response is really not paying attention. He made a moral decision for a solid reason. If you can't understand that, well maybe you don't understand his morals in regard to censorship. That actually scares me.
      Christ, I understand some of UT's hurt now, but I don't jump band wagons just to maintain the status quo. That's exactly what I think many of you are doing. The attitude is, "Shhh, keep your mouth shut so we can keep the cellar." No, I'm not a major player here, I lurk more often than not and few would miss me if UT lined me up for deletion next, but that's no reason for me to shut up. If you think it is... I guess I didn't think the people around here were like that. If UT wants to delete what I have to say, or even my account here, he has the might. So be it.
      Damn it all though, I started posting here because of UT's philosophy on not throwing his weight around. I need to know if that's changed. That's exactly what his initial post said he'd be doing. Again, privacy wasn't mentioned originally, which I can understand, but that doesn't explain deleting Syc's thread.
      So how 'bout it UT? I've advocated giving you some space from the beginning of this thread. Still, I'd like to know, have the principles you once based your way of doing things changed or not? I can't demand an answer of course, nor would I try. I just want to know, as some guy you'll never meet in front of a monitor somewhere, what's next?
