There seems to be a lot of that in the General Shaving Talk sub-forum. Perhaps closing them down as soon as they turn into mere venting would curb the trend. We all know which other forums and retailers suck and why. There is no reason to repeat it 990 times. People can go outside and vent.
Anyways, to give a succinct answer to the OP... Should it matter? Yes, honesty and integrity always matter.

That's akin to censorship and I thought the whole point of this Forum was to allow free discourse...? Don't assume I support libelous statements, please.

we definitely allow a lot more discussion than most websites out there. at some point though, controversial threads start circling around and they start getting heated. wolfman threads are a perfect example of this..

There is a fine line that is often gray between wise moderation and outright censorship. Often people forget that our World does not function on civility and never will.
