"The comparison to Hitler, Hitler youth, and anything else Nazi related is overused by society but I have to say this is one example of it being a just comparison."

What is the probability Paul Phillips agrees with that statement?

What is the probability that the original comment was a Godwin's Law joke that neither of you got?

While Paul could have shown some restraint in his reply to the email, I think his original post and sentiments have some validity. The moderation here has gone completely overboard in recent weeks, with each moderator having his or her own standards. Instead of a place of discussion, this site is devolving into a place to cozy up to the moderators to avoid getting banned.

A sad day.

It was just one moderator: me. What happened here is not about multiple moderators. This forum has one: Dynasty. I am the only other person who might take action here. So people can direct their anger and disappointment at me.

My explanation

Mat made a slight error and owned up to it fully. People should respect that and not look as it being more sinister than it is. And while I am a fan of Paul's - and linked to his blog - and I believe that poker pro's should be more welcomed here than they are by many board members - I don't think it's right for him to insult 2+2 or call Mason names.

Are cricitisms of 2+2 or the way you or Dynasty moderate the forums acceptable?

I rarely post; nobody here will miss me. I won't even pretend that your advertisers will notice that I've stopped clicking through from your web site.

And I'm out of here.

Default just chop the pot, already

I wonder what the probability is of a table full of poker pros dropping their egos.

Paul,

Sometimes the person telling you not to post, is not who you'd expect.

Maybe Paul was lonely or had too much to drink, I love humor amongst heated arguments, life is short....smile.
