It was purely a chess matter and is relevant to this thread. I dont see any reason to take it down or censor it.... Fortunately chesschat left it on diplay - because they respect accountable free speech. I used to think that this forum did too... Unfortunately both forums also respect unaccountable free speech... Maybe moderators should get rid of all the comments on these forums by people who choose not to identify themselves and leave relevant accountable comments there for people to read instead of censoring them in the name of privacy...
Id like to officially ask all the Ozchess admins and moderators to have a look at my post that Jayden took down and vote on whether it should go back up again because I truly believe that it is relevant to this thread... If Ozchess is an institution which respects accountable free speech, then there should be a right of appeal for people whose posts have been censored or taken down. Consider this post an official letter of appeal...

Now...... This is not a matter of freedom of speech it's simply a matter of respecting privacy. This also has nothing to do with people who choose not to identify themselves and I'm not entirely sure why you're going down that line of thought. If a conversation is held in a private domain then it shouldn't be reproduced on a public forum unless the sender is consenting. If something has been said in private it should be considered that there is probably a reason for that. As for the people asking if the post was suggested for moderation I think a simple glance at post-deletion reactions should do the trick

Its a totally different scenario. In my opinion, an email between a CV official and an MCC official about a CV/MCC matter should be open for ANY MEMBER of ANY CV AFFILIATED CHESS CLUB to read. This is what transparancy and accountability is.
