Posts/threads can be taken down for many reasons. More recently it is because the thread/subject turned political. This takes away from the subject at hand and causes the thread to deteriorate at a fast pace.

- Threads are kept on-topic and relevant to our members.
- Threads are closed if they are repetitive or hold little long-term interest.
- Threads are closed if the standards of discussion are deteriorating.

We discourage rude or condescending behavior, but at the same time, we encourage active cooperation and passionate disagreement about audio-related issues, which can sometimes be a fine line.
If your Forum Post or Discussion was removed, it is because a user flagged it for breaking our community rules and a Support Agent reviewed the report and agreed. We also will send an email alerting you with a list of reasons why it was removed.
