If you go back to your original post where you renamed the
thread "Neosoft censors its users" and check, you'll see Mr. Simonetta
was replying to a post by Andrew Smith of Insync (aos@insync.net).  
The first mention of NeoSoft in the thread came in your article title,
and as near as I can remember, and check with DejaNews, no NeoSoft 
employee had made ANY comment that could be taken as for or against
censorship previously.
