[Redruth]

As far as censorship goes, can't we each individually do our own censorship, up to a point? If I see something I consider offensive on the board, I close that thread and open something else (unless I'm re-reading something I'm about to post, then I just edit it )

The webteam seem to do a good job of stepping in and censoring when things get out of hand and I'm glad they are there doing that job, for free! Frankly, I'm surprised to see Flanks has time to go out with this board to keep an eye on 24/7!

I don't agree that this should be a members' only board, either. As has been said, it brings in new blood who may, or may not, decide to get more involved with the club and pay the membership fee. And there's an awful lot of experts out there who post because of their interest in Ducati who may have no interest in the club itself. So what? We shouldn't limit things to just club members. Leave them be and let them have their say.

The only thing I'm slightly concerned about with this discussion is, if I want to sell a bike, I'd want the freedom to post it on here. Similarly, if someone I know and ride with or see at DSC meets had something to sell that I might want, I'd want ot hear about it through the board. It's a very effective grapevine, for those who use it.
