Yes, it is. Allowing one group of people to speak their mind but prohibiting others to do so IS censorship and unfair (pretty odd, since you demanded fairness in your original post). It also makes me wonder whether this is still a "discussion" board.
I've seen the post(s) that got deleted from the Austin thread and there was nothing "nasty" about them.
One (!!!) person dared to express an opinion different from that of other members (yet in accordance with the - now obviously no longer valid
- forum rules) and look what happened.
Were those posts something to be afraid of or why have you decided to suppress such comments?

Please remember that the footage on youtube is shot on camera phones, and camera phones are not often used by the professionals who create DVD's.

If this is true, how can you judge the quality of a performance
at all by such a video? Not only can't you say it was bad, you can't say it was good either. So in fact you'd have to ban
any comment regarding amateur videos, regardless of whether they are favorable or unfavorable.
I guess most people are able to recognize the difference between bad footage and a bad performance. Someone might even dislike a professionally shot HQ video just because the performance is not to their liking for whatever reasons. So that rule regarding YouTube videos appears like a pretext to me.
I suggest we do not talk about anything related to Meat Loaf anymore. That way we're not in danger of saying something "wrong".
Or maybe any thread on this subforum should consist of only one post (which has to be 100% flattering, of course) and you can do nothing but click the "like"
button.
