Why can't I post and others can?

Hello,
I am new to this forum but am not to watches nor people. I have tried to post a reply 3 times now with a moderator not allowing it to post. And when I contacted a moderator (nice fella named Paul Dean) he thought it might be because I was being too critical. How can I be critical of members when I am using no names and am only curious to why a fellow member is being bashed every chance someone gets but I am not allowed to respond to thier accusations.

Unless in my 50 years of life I have missed something changing I thought forums were for people to discuss subjects and have the freedom to express themselfs in a proper manner. I never thought of discrimination through a forum but it appears to be that way.
Some forum members are slamming an honest person who does not deserve it and his friends should be allowed to respond in his defense.

Key word here seems to be "Discrimination" and no matter where one lives I am pretty sure it is not allowed.
Thanks, Jim

Jim, I don't know all the facts, but it may have been that some of your posts were unapproved by the automoderator, which can be triggered when new members include some inappropriate or potentially inappropriate words in their post.

Anyway, I hope this can be cleared up
