My post was to draw attention to the positive work Mike provides, if it helps draw more attention to your mix then so be it. No one is picking on you. People have been asked to edit posts when it comes to language before and they make changes without being offended.

It's simply Mike Senior's policy. It may seem strict but it isn't draconian and for a good reason. Feel free to take it up with him. It's his site and he'd like to keep it viable to everyone from adults to students and educators. This policy is that helps keep the site afloat. Mike was simply and politely reminding all of us of that. It really isn't difficult. You can disagree and that's fine but the site is not suffering because of any "puritanical gibberish".

If you come across any recent posts that are disrespectful or offensive please feel free to notify myself or Mike or any of the other mods.

Draconian? It is the epitome of Draconian. Do you even know what the perceived offense is? It is precisely puritanical gibberish. I feel like I've fallen into a slush pit, a cesspool of puritanical zealots who have let their own tiny taste of power completely overwhelm their sensibilities. It is precisely draconian and puritanical in the most extreme ways. Who do you people think you are? I guess free speech does not exist in this forum.

In case you were unaware:
Draconian: (of laws or their application) excessively harsh and severe.

"the Nazis destroyed the independence of the press by a series of draconian laws"

I wouldn't bother Mike S. with something this incredibly mundane and innocuous. He has better things to do than this. hence, he gives you the responsibility and look what you are doing with it. You are terrorizing me with your draconian rules. And for what? Compressing the pi$$ out a guitar?  Really? Oh my stars. The world will now not beat a path to your door.  Heaven forbid.

You need to stay in your lane and keep your nose out of innocuous posts and save it for truly heinous entries. That you would waste your time on something likes this says a whole lot about the character of the people left to run this place. You have lost ALL perspective.
