***Previous response moved to jail***
I'm sorry, I didn't realize that I would be censored for having a contrary opinion. Please inform the Thought Police that I will deactivate my cerebellum immediately.

There were plenty of contrary opinions expressed in the thread without direct personal insult to other forum members. Since you seem to have a problem with my decision to move your post the Jail, I've moved your complaint to the Resolution Center, where it will be handled by the administration.
Admins, this (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=496357) is the post in question.

Fenryr,
I have read the post in question and the thread it came from. While many people were sharing opinions that were very different from one another, yours stood out because of how you expressed the opinion. Comparing someone (unfavorably) to your third grade English teacher, then calling them "a stuck up prig with delusions of adequacy" is far enough over the line that you could be banned for it. Instead, you were given a fairly trivial one point infraction.
You responded to that infraction with a rude PM to a moderator and this silly "Thought Police" comment above. You will find that you received a new infraction from me for this PM.

I stand by my original assessment...The OP did post with the SPECIFIC intention of insulting other posters, this is obvious from the very TITLE of the thread. I simply responded in kind.
I've seen far WORSE on these formus in my short time here, I honestly didn't think your people would blow this all out of proportion in this manner...IMO, if you're going to be FAIR about this, you should delete the entire THREAD, as it's an obvious attempt to 'troll' the readership for just the sort of response you're giving ME so much grief over...

Actually, upon further consideration, nevermind...I think I can find support and technical info elsewhere, and I don't see the sense in posting where my opinions aren neither respected nor wanted...Thank you, please delete ALL posts/threads by me, and have a good day.

We don't delete posts or accounts, but I can disable the account for you. I wish you the best elsewhere, if that is your desire. Bon chance.
