The thorn tree is your space - we don't want to moderate, mediate or meddle too much.

Most of the time we prune posts because they're advertisements, they're old and stale, or because the file size is causing users' computers to crash.

Sometimes it's because we've got morality police armbands on - personal attacks and outrageously vexatious, racist or sexist posts are going to get the chop.

And lastly, it might be because your post sets off our sue-radar - if we think you're going to have a bunch of lawyers knocking on our door, we'll delete your offering.

Otherwise, talk about what you want, how you want, when you want and with whom you want. And remember folks - play nice...
