Whilst only a lowly engineer newbie, I highly value the work that moderators and administrators do. I run a forum for a charity and whilst this is not a well known one, there are still problems with spammers etc trying to put totally inappropriate posts on the site. As it is effectively a source of information, the accuracy of post has to be good. I don't have the problem of advertisers but I do supply links to other sites etc and if these prove to be a bit dodgy then they are deleted. As other people have said 'its Danny's house and his rules. If you don't like them don't post.' The same rules apply to I think all forum sites.
