Who is deleting the questions that raise question to this new site?

I recently asked the users to rate the new rating system.  The responses were generally negative.  Now it seems it has been deleted from the forum.

Who is doing this?  Mr. B?  The new programmer?  Either way, sorry you do not like the negative reaction from your users, but censorship is that way is the quickest way to loose followers.  

Then who will read your ads?

Brownstoner community, what say ye?

I agree, dibs.  I don’t see the need ofr such a system. I’ve seen other blogs with the same rating system- I don’t  see the need or the usefulness.

I don’t see the reason for the rating system.  Rate someone’s answer???  A lot of bad info and mis info given out here at times anyway.

It’s not a beauty pageant, it’s just an answer

BTW, I think it falls into the category of “matters of local concern”
