Are we no longer moderated?
Some dodgy posts have been getting through lately.

JJ:
Yes, we are moderated, but this does not mean that only squeaky clean posts get through. We allow both positive and negative comments through including some "radical honest" ones. We draw the line when members start complaining or the post is obviously over the top or way off subject.

Your offense is noted and taken into consideration.

Concerning the subject of the friction I might note that most of us are offensive to someone. I know my writings offend some, but I have an advantage here. If a member doesn't like what I write they will usually leave. Thus the Keys members mostly consist of those who either like or tolerate me. Others of you are not so lucky. If someone doesn't like what you post or the way you write they will often stay anyway to take in the basic teachings.

I'm sure many like John's writings and a few do not. Same for Bryan and others. On the other hand, it is usually good for a writer to hear negative feedback, even if it is a little painful as it may lead to improvement. I know that some stark criticism has helped me several times in the past. Then there has been other times that the criticism just did not make sense.

I hope that all here feel free to post your thoughts and will work on making them interesting and considerate.
