    As long as users conduct themselves within Answerbag's Terms of Service, they are free to say whatever they please, even though the reception can be disquietingly cool when ABers do not like what has been said. I find that the overwhelming majority of AB's users have reasonable expectations.

    It can be a VERY fine line between freedom of speech and maintaining a family-friendly environment. There will be those things that fall through the cracks. Even democracy has those issues. The 'Bag reflects the country.

    There are often times when a question gets canned that didn't deserve it. When that happens, Ryan, simply go to the bottom of the page, hit feedback, and request another look be taken. Many times, the question will be released back into the community. Mistakes happen. +5
