Post Moderation vs Censorship

Just made my monthly visit to the Qantas London Base thread (once a month is enough) and was disappointed to see it had been closed by a Moderator.

Reading back over the thread in an effort to see what had been going on, there were some interesting and very passionate views, some rhetoric and contrast of opinions, whether informed or otherwise. Whether we agree with their views or not, there are perspectives from people in their respective frontlines wherever they may be.

In the interest of transparency, fairness, and objectivity, can Pprune please publish the code of moderation that one assumes exists and that Moderators administer threads according too.

There seems to be too much inconsistency between forums, for example, D & G Reporting Points where you can say whatever you like, as indeed it should be, vs Cabin Crew, where sometimes it seems you should only say what the Moderator thinks you should say.

Short of obscenity or threats, this forum should be free of political censorship.
