No bad news here then, all is rosy in the garden!

"adversely comment on a named local person or enterprise"

adverse : acting against or in a contrary direction

You gotta have balance, you gotta have ying and yang, if not then it's just a dictatorship and we all know that there are plenty of local enterprises both public and private that could do with a healthy dose of 'adverse comment' and public criticism.

In the past this board was one of the few places that you could air your views without being targeted for telling the truth.

Like I said 'cut off at the knees' - I'll still support ye and I know people don't appreciate the hard thanksless work that goes into moderation but it's a great resource for the diaspora and the people of Castlebar but it's just not what it once was and for that I'm saddened.
