[quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]Jeff thanks for the warm welcome! I'm sure I'll like it here.

is it true that this site tends to moderate and ban conservative voices? I read that on UB once and I'm a bit concerned since DH and I are center-right in our views. on UB this was totally allowed and I enjoyed seeing different perspectives![/quote]

Nobody gets banned due to their political views. We ask that political posts be confined to the Political forums and that discussions stay on topic. Because we are a DC-centric site and DC is very liberal, most of our users are liberal. Many conservatives feel that they don't get a fair shake. Other conservatives have posted here for years and are pretty happy with how the site is moderated.

I ask that users participate in site moderation by using the "report" button to alert me to inappropriate posts since there is no way that I can read every post. It has been my experience that conservatives are reluctant to report posts. On the other hand, their posts get reported frequently. As a result, it is more likely that conservative posts will get my attention and, potentially, be removed more often than posts by liberals. If you browse the "Website Feedback" forum, you will find that it is a popular place for the conservatives here to complain. For a group that seems to live in fear of being banned, they are certainly not shy about insulting me at every opportunity.
