This is not the first time and I am certain it will not be the last that this topic comes up. I responded with a long reply to this question almost four years ago to the day MasterRussian.NET: before and after

As I had a different objective when I joined than most others, to understand the culture and history and some words or phrases and not to actually learn Russian, I cannot fully understand what has started this current round. I do ask everyone to consider why they are on MR? Is it to learn or improve a language? Is it to understand a different culture? Is it to meet people who are different from you and maybe form a sort of online penpal or even an find an amazing friend? Or is it to troll or throw insults at someone because you are anonymous behind some computer?

There have been wonderful lively and educational threads on this forum. Ones in which moderation is not needed because the people who particpated respected one another. You can have your own thoughts, opinions, beliefs and you can argue them through peaceful and respectful dialog and help educate others about your views and the problem of moderation and censorship will be resolved ... as it won't be needed.
