I stand corrected--'your signature picture'. My sincere apology.

However, at no time have I questioned the rules of the board, like I've said, I am not attempting to rewrite any rules. So posting the rules at this time is completely irrelevant.

My post mentioned inconsistencies and or double standards--and your point relating to a "judgement call" is clearly understood.
But in my opinion, it was a 'bad call--not impartial.

If there is a forum, where free advertising is offered, then the moderator 'Cougar mag'--should have politely redirected his post providing a link to the advertising forum--and just not shut the door in the member's face.
I am sure he spent some time on that thread, and even if it was meant to be an advertising pitch, he still provided information for a broadhead that we may one day have our own questions on.

I seriously feel that we all need to 'bond together' in the interest of a sport we all love. Closing doors without offering an alternative isn't going to get us anywhere--on the other hand, providing assistance to the correct location for threads with an 'advertising pitch' is much better in my view, as compared to deleting the thread completely.
The thread had absolutely no profanity--it spoke about four hunts and the broadhead used there in.

Regardless, I thank you and all the other board members for your/their response to this thread, hopefully we have all learnt a little more of what this board has to offer.
