Default RE: question, should members be allowed to self moderate their threads?

ORIGINAL: GW
The way you can help keep a thread on topic is to report to moderator if you see a thread going off topic and lets the mods remove the offending post. Thats easy enough, and somewhat self moderating for the thread starter and members. .

GW, Just because a thread goes off its original topic should not be an automatic reason to remove any post. If a discussion regarding aerobatics some how gets lost into carburetors, information is still being exchanged even if it is at the dismay of the originator. I’ve acquired a lot of good information in threads that started out as totally unrelated subjects. So deleting unrelated post (that are still R/C) does a major disservice to ALL the members, it could be one time information gone forever.


To Whom It May Concern: I don’t agree with moving this thread to an obscure corner of RCU. I’ve also noticed other threads that serve a better purpose to a wider audience than those looking for answers and questions to RCU related problems, that were moved as well.

I’m starting to understand the complaints about over moderation.
