In it, it specifically states: "Askville is not a chat room. If a post isn’t a question, an answer or a discussion that relates to the question then it doesn’t belong on Askville. If you are looking for a place to chat with others there are lots of options on the Internet."
In those three sentences, the social interactions aspect of Askville has been COMPLETELY taken from us!
In addition, I have received a number of messages from friends that they've had totally INNOCUOUS posts of their's "suppressed", and ergo do not believe the Blog's contention that any actual intervention on the part of any Team member is involved.
You might also check out the first Answer to my "Team has 'lost it'" Question to see a pretty good summation of the current situation.
I see a mass exodus from Askville coming! Do you?<< less

So seriously, post some links and suggestions. Where can we all get together to haggle, gossip, exchange banter and jibes?<< less

I just had three posts suppressed, and have sent the following PM to the Team:
"Dear Askville Staff,
"None of my three comments you just "suppressed" were worthy of such suppression! Two of them were explaining why *another* person said what they did to the asker, and the third was merely my private opinion (which I was not attempting to force upon anyone else).
"It is obvious that the REAL purpose of your "Good Neighbor Policy" is to rid Askville of any form of personal expression (in essence, turning all of us into "robots")--in hopes of eliminating the majority of its current membership so that you may return Askville to its original purpose of "shilling" for Amazon.com, instead of letting it remain the "chat room" that it has essentially turned into (mostly through your own egregious lack of oversight over it).
"It's more than obvious that you care for none of us as individuals.
"Sincerely,
"MARSHALL"

There is more going on here than just access to healthcare -- the STD rates for black teens is so far beyond logical reasoning that there must be more explanation. Access to healthcare is not 20times worse for blacks than whites. Can someone explain why our community allows STD rates at this levels?<< less

What I mean is, we are like perfect twins. We have the same sense of humor, we love books and movies, we love playing on the computer. We are NOT materialistic at all, and are both very emotional and honest with others and each other
We both love being affectionate and loving, same foods, same attitude toward life and people in general.
The problem is, neither one of us has one ounce of ambition, or drive. We don't feel we need a lot to be happy, and we both have a tendency to enjoy partying a bit too much.
This concerns me. We are not kids. All our kids are grown and gone. We have both been through enough hard times, and crap in our lives that we really don't care too much about anything anymore.
Can this relationship work?Do you think we can make it? Can we do it? Nobody wants to be the grown up!<< less

It seems that several companies make the STK392-110 IC, but the "Toshiba" is one of the most expensive. Looking to keep cost down, but obviously don't want to buy an incompatible chip.<< less

Not every talk show host lasts as long and becomes quite the household word as Oprah has in her 25 years on television. Like her or not, she obviously has something that has made her such a success--what is it? What has made her so successful that after 25 years, she is leaving from her place at the TOP, not on her way down, whatsoever? Are there other women out there that could replace her, if a replacement was needed?<< less
