Anonomous , secret Moderation is wrong.
Well overly agressive Moderation/ Censorship on FT has gone off the deep end.
Censorship is killing flyertalk. This is like Stalin Russia. We have MULTIPLE Moderators on the American Airlines board. Both Kelloggs threads were closed in Summary fashion.
If a moderator is going to cloise a thread , On a board with multiple Moderators, Then the moderator should at least have the courtesy to post his FT handle , so that we know who is closing the thread. I'm not saying that the moderator needs to explaining his reasoning or rationale ( although it would be nice).
A mere "Im locking this thread" posted as the final post would suffice as the mimimum disclosure requirment. But now we have the secret police acting ANONOMOUSLY???
ANONOMOUSLY! ANONOMOUSLY! ANONOMUSLY!
This is close to the final straw for me. I liked FT a whole lot better a few years ago.
To act ANONOMOUSLY is WRONG.

If you plan on using the word Anonymous that much perhaps at least try to spell it correctly... FWIW, the thread in question seems to be reopened, WITH comments from the moderator.
