>Yes...*exactly*! In any type of social 'institution', and yes PB is one, there are rules and norms of behaviour that are often in a state of flux, but that have to be established. Dr. Bob plays the rules across the board, and they have done well to keep this site intact for a long time.
And yes, I know what it is like to wish to post any comment I wish...and have at times 'lashed' out, but latter realized it was unhealthy for my mindset, and for the board's.
Just IMHO....
