I completely agree with your view of the moderators. Roughly 50% of my appends are censored by the moderators. I think the sole reason is that they simply disagree with the views that I express, even if the append does nothing more than politely complain about the selective censorship of the moderators.
In order to make this board more worthwhile, let me suggest that you repost each append that anyone posts to the ibmpension board and then not censor responses you don't agree with. Obviously, appends that use foul language or that direct personal attacks towards other participants should be dealt with, perhaps initially with a warning and then through some other means of your choosing (which I think you should make known in advance to all participants). My hope is that contributors to the ibmpension board will eventually all migrate to this board and put Kathi et. al. out of business. My personal opinion is that many of the moderators of ibmpension simply like having the power of censorship (i.e. having control over what they allow/disallow on their board) for personal reasons. Just a thought.....
