I prefer free speech it has to be said. Once the editing starts, how long before our posts are edited for spelling and grammar? A PM can be sent to ask the author if a mod thinks they can improve the post in any way, surely, before the itchy fingers need to press the edit button.

OK ALL, just so you all know, and so this frankly 'non-event' subject doesn't become a cause-celebre for those who might be better employed posting something about diving....
With the exceptions of the title (only) of Tom's post 'False Signatures' - which I edited to read 'False Flag' (albeit for only 10 minutes before Tom asked me to swap it back), which I changed to give it a more alliterative ring and 'eye-catching' title on what has been (for some) a 'niggle subject', and one by a member who was reviewing a dive holiday/dive cente/tour operator (where he was perhaps not as complimentary as he might have been - so I added the words "in my first-hand experience", so as to differentiate it form mere hearsay and opinion, and so as not to attract any adverse legal attention should that operator decide to read that post on YD (in effect reducing the risk to YD where this member had just simply spoken his mind - in an unabridged manner) - there has been no editing of posts, no censorship, no plots to kill the Pope, no cats run over, no setting of fires, no sex with animals....in short, no spilled milk here!
Now can we PLEASE stop this mince and crack on with business?!
