So, to be clear, Max Barry is on the record with the position that rape survivors and the mentally ill should not speak about their experiences in public, because he knows better than they do what's best for them? He does not have any objection to this position being attributed to him? Because, as a consumer of books, that's the sort of thing I like to know about authors before I purchase their products, and I think if that's a position he stands behind, it's only reasonable that we help let his potential readers know about it.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, as there were apparently other off-topic posts we missed that should have been split off as well. One of my colleagues is currently giving the thread a more thorough check to correct this oversight.

Quick question. Is it going to be policy in the future to delete off-topic posts in their entirety in the general forum?

I THINK I got everything. If I missed something, please link and I'll either get to it this afternoon after tests are done or another Mod will wander by and do the honors.

And how were the posts in question off topic? As I literally pointed out, discussing the liability of the site is appropriate. Discussing what Max does or does not want on the site is entirely appropriate.
Reppy, this is too far. Moderation and Max got called, and it got shut down, just like every time before, except that some Moderator decided that instead of just locking the thread (like what happened with all of our complaint threads before), there were going to hide them altogether.
