Given that, i should be surprised that DP.com would care so much how others control their content, but (un)suprisingly I am not.

But, since the wiki was added to include that inane category, i've added one as well. If the one added by DP.com is relevant to this wiki, then so is mine.

Once again, I will point out that DP.com will censor any comment that calls into question any aspect of the post - including comments that are made professionally, comments that tell the reader of a better deal, and comments that point out errors and misinformation in the post.

I would second all these comments

And just in case it wasn't clear previously, to reiterate the Delta Points blog censors comments that tell the reader of a better deal no matter how professionally made. In other words, the Delta Points blog censors comments directly to the benefit of it's own financial needs at the COST of it's readers.

But I would like to request that all references to back-links be removed from this wiki and this thread. It has nothing to do with the question in hand, which is which blogs censor comments (and the Delta Points blog is one of the most egregious examples of blogs that censor comments). If back-links is a discussion worthy topic, then can we please have a separate thread for it, so that it cannot be used as some tool to try and dilute the argument against egregious censoring, such as that seen on the Delta Points blog.
