Well I was talking about these posts in general, most of which don't include 
the actual posts that they are about. I didn't just mean your case 
specifically. You just kinda sparked my annoyance about this. :o)

Ok at least now I know what it was about. So why was it blocked (according to 
the moderators)?

I don't know which Cubase forum you mean (but somehow I doubt it has anything 
to do with Steinberg any more than LUG has to do with Apple), but LUG 
moderation has nothing to do with Apple listening to their customers. LUG is 
not Apple. Even if some bugreports posted to the LUG make it to them every 
now and then. LUG is not Apple, it is not Emagic, it is an amator Yahoo group 
for users to share information. Allowing or blocking posts has got nothing to 
do with Apple listening to customers.

It might help if you would just state actual facts, instead of hiding them 
between the lines and only writing emotional reactions to your being 
moderated.

> but manipulate my post to help you prove your point.

For my points I don't need to manipulate your post. They simply are:

1. Critisisms are not blocked just because they're critisisms
2. Whether LUG blocks posts or not has got nothing to do with Apple being 
willing to listen to their customers or not
3. If you want to make claims about the way LUG is moderated, your claim only 
makes sense if you show what was moderated, and show the moderator's comment. 
I'm not saying they're always right. I'm just saying it takes more to prove 
them wrong than just saying "they're wrong".

Neither do they read the LUG. And support for old Logic versions isn't really 
an issue when you plan to buy a new one. However, I agree a post like that 
could be important, but after 3 mails from you I still don't know what you 
wrote and why the moderators (claimed they) blocked it. So this discussion 
still didn't get much above the "LUG is bad because they moderated me"-level. 
I am still curious, but if you really just do this because you enjoy 
complaining, don't let me spoil your fun.

Maurits.
