Except of course you know that VASC didn't do that. A poster on their website made a comment including URLs against the posting rules and the post was removed. He contacted VASC, was told that was the problem and made the same post without the URLs and it has not been touched. I've posted that info in here in a reply to you, the poster on the VASC site posted the same info and yet you are still trying to perpetuate the myth of VASC somehow censoring posts.

Next you will be advocating for Chinese State Controlled Media.
Sorry, your last sentence is something of a hysterical over-reaction. You don't know that the statements put out were misleading for reasons also previously spelled out to you, and you know, because you've already been told, that VASC did not silence or remove challenge posts, simply required the poster to stick by the posting rules on their site.

Simples.
