That may be, but it's not an excuse to start a thread with accusations 
and emotive language, rather than at least trying to give the 
constructive feedback on its own merits. I realise that I am making a 
judgement about Lester's tone, but it's hard to see words like 
"censorship" and "clique" as an invitation to calm discussion.

My own biggest flaw is that I tend to be over-verbose, so my posts 
probably end up reading like rants when I am actually trying to 
contribute to the conversation. I apologise if that was the case here, 
and I will try to refine my points more succinctly in future.

Regards,
