I used to dabble a bit on a travel forum for the Cayman Islands. One time I responded to another poster's query by recommending a certain restaurant. I was stunned to learn my post was deleted by the moderator.
Turns out the restaurant in question doesn't advertise with the company that owns this "independent" board.
I challenged the moderator, and the credibility of the board in view of such tactics, and was immediately banned from the forum.
