My post in Dowards g/b thread (i posted it there b/c thats where i saw the link):
whoa, what is up w/ the EDITING, there was a lot of post on here yesterday and a link to another thread concerning an issue caused by upgrading the front on a car w/ out ABS and now it has all been deleted, why is everyone on here afraid of criticism, i understand you made a product and feel offended by someone questioning it and problems that can be caused by it but by editing and deleting post it seems like your hiding something, if your product is SO GREAT, then let people read everyones comments/questions/concerns and let them decide for themselves,
* btw i have never seen people upgrade their brakes and not upgrade their bmc, do you have a solution for a bigger bmc, b/c if the brakes are bigger then the bmc should be bigger as well, right?'
*also online forums are a place for people to discuss/question/learn, not for those who think they know more to impose their ideas on others,

My response:
First of all nowhere did I say doward edited/deleted anything, maybe you should reread my post, I was merely asking what happedn to it b/c I wanted to finish reading a thread b/c I wanted to know the effects of upgrading the front brakes w/out upgrading anything else i.e. mbc, rears, etc,
In no way did I make any misleading or inappropriate comments, my comment was directed at the fact that people had questions or concerns about the product, the way I had read it greeksupra was asking what made dowards kit better than the mk4 kit, as would any buyer interested in purchasing something, he wanted a comparison, I give you the fact that maybe he went about asking it the wrong way, but shouldn’t that be resolved by pm’ing him and telling him to keep it to pm’s or as you stated start a comparison thread, which I’m sure would have been deleted as well,
Your right this is not a democracy, b/c of mods like you, from my understanding this is an online discussion forum, not a “do and believe what jdub tells you to” forums, if anyone’s comments are inappropriate they are yours, there’s no need to tell me to stfu b/c you know what we all share a freedom of speech, so I don’t see why you need to be rude, and threaten to delete my posts, if anything you need to take a chill pill, it’s the internet everyone has an opinion, not just you,
Fear an mod that fears your keyboard!

jdub;1353778 said:Doward didn't delete the posts, I did...do not imply Doward had anything to do with it. He did not...got it? The posts made by GreekSupra were not criticism, they were flames promoting another option using rational that simply was not true. That combined with the language and attitude caused the deletions...this was not censorship in any way, shape or form (as you are implying). Your comments are inappropriate and misleading...any more like it and the same thing will happen...I am dead serious about this.
In addition, this is a Group Buy / For Sale thread. Comments concerning other products and/or options have no place here...period. This is not a democracy...you've had your say, now STFU in this thread.
If you want to start one in the general section debating the attributes of this brake kit vs that brake kit and the positives/negatives of each...have at it. Keep the comments civil (GreekSupra did not) and keep the information accurate or steps will be taken to insure that's what happens. Based on what you are saying, I have a feeling you would not like the result if such a thread gets out-of-hand.
That's the way it is...suggest you heed what I have to say on this matter.
