Grex staff are hard working volunteers with good hearts and I'd suspect
they all tend to agree that using root power to censor is not a good
practice. But I'd also suspect there is some room for interpretation when
push comes to shove. Any action of this type deserves to be shared in the
"What I Did" item, in the staff conference, so that there can be some
oversight and peer review of such actions. I guess we are still waiting
to hear what this specific instance is about. We may be waiting for some
time. ;-)

I can quite confidently speak on behalf of my colleagues in saying that
we, as 'root', are not interested (either out of personal satisfaction or
ethical responsibilities) in censoring of any kind in bbs - and even if we
were, we just don't have the time for it to be practical!

The incident I was refering to: Item 38, response 87 was scribbled by
hhsrat, apparantly after saying something inappropriate. I interpreted
Steve Gibbard's response 94 as saying that he had editted the censored
log. Maybe that's not what happened.

No, response 94 there was in response to response 92, which referred to an
incident on M-Net where somebody was supposedly protected by the unreadable
censored file. I did not edit hhsrat's response out of the censored file.
If nobody else has, I assume it's still there.
