Formal COMPLAINT about a "Moderator" BOTH, (1) "Deleting" a 'Comment"; and, (2) "Closing" a 'Post'

"Community.FamilySearch" Forum
Attention: @Mark McLemore
Subject: Formal COMPLAINT about a "Moderator" BOTH, (1) "Deleting" a 'Comment"; and, (2) "Closing" a 'Post'
I hereby, submit a "Formal" COMPAINT, about a "Moderator" [ie. 'FamilySearch' "Support" ( Personnel )] BOTH, (1) "Deleting" a 'Comment'; and, (2) "Closing" a 'Post'.
As I have advise on a number of previous occasions, this "Community.FamilySearch" Forum, is NOT the "Sole" PURVIEW, of 'FamilySearch' "Support" ( Personnel).
This "Community.FamilySearch" Forum, was established, a number of Years ago, on the basis of:
User/Patrons, HELPING /ASSSITING, Users/Patrons ...
And, the "Community.FamilySearch" Forum, has been operating, quite successfully, for those many Years.
Well BEFORE, "Early" LAST Year, with the 'demise' of the 'FamilySearch' "Support" Case (Management) System; and, 'FamilySearch' "Support" (Personnel), basically being "Moved", 'ALL of a SUDDEN' 'holus-bolus' (ie. Included) into the MIX of, this "Community.FamilySearch" Forum; where, the Forum was NOT originally designed/established, for that purpose.
There has been some cohesion, of late, with the inclusion of 'FamilySearch' "Support" (Personnel), into this "Community.FamilySearch" Forum; but, there is still a ways to go.
"Moderators" [ie. 'FamilySearch' "Support" ( Personnel )] CONTINUE to OVERSTEP the 'Bounds' of their purview by, (1) "Editing" some 'Comments'; and, (1) "Deleting" some 'Comments'; and, (2) "Closing" some 'Posts', that DO NOT, "Breach", the "Code of Conduct".
As such ...
Could you please "Reopen" the following post; and, also "Restore" ANY "Deleted" 'Comments' in that 'Post'.
To ALLOW Users/Patron, to continue to express themselves, if they so desire.

STOP 🛑 allowing Gedcoms to be uploaded to the main tree
The "Summary" CENSORSHIP, in this "Community.FamilySearch" Forum, by some of the "Moderators" [ie. 'FamilySearch' "Support" ( Personnel )], is becoming intolerable.
As I have previously requested ...
Please STOP the "Moderators" [ie. 'FamilySearch' "Support" ( Personnel )], in this "Community.FamilySearch" Forum, applying their OWN values, to BOTH, 'Posts'; and, 'Comments', that DO NOT, "Breach", the "Code of Conduct".
Please FURTHER curb, the power and authority, some of the "Moderators" [ie. 'FamilySearch' "Support" ( Personnel )], in this "Community.FamilySearch" Forum.
Otherwise, the purpose and usefulness of this "Community.FamilySearch" Forum, will be lost FOREVER.
And, also allow Users/Patrons to respond in BOTH, 'Posts'; and, 'Comments', WITHOUT concern of their 'Posts'; and, 'Comments', being WRONGFULLY summarily, "Edited"; "Deleted"; and/or, "Closed", according to their OWN values, by some "Moderators" [ie. 'FamilySearch' "Support" ( Personnel )].
This "Community.FamilySearch" Forum; and, the previous 'iterations' of the 'FamilySearch' "Feedback" Forums, have ALWAYS been the place, for Users/Patrons, to express themselves and their concerns - of course, provided that they are NOT, among other things, Abusive; Nasty; Rude; (Intentionally) Offensive.
Please allow, this "Community.FamilySearch" Forum, to continue to be, a place for Users/Patrons, to express themselves and their concerns.
Humbly submitted for your IMMEDIATE, information; attention; and, consideration.
'Thank You' in advance.
Your cooperation, would be greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards
MAY THE LORD BLESS YOU IN THIS IMPORTANT WORK
Yours Faithfully,
Brett

Hello @Brett .,
The comments which were removed from this post were removed because they violated the code of conduct.
As noted in the code of conduct, moderation is subjective and requires judgment. While the decisions we make may not always be completely understood/explained or agreed with, they are decisions made in line with the code of conduct.
Best,
