I guess I'm jaded when it comes to civility (probably from spending too much time on Fark), but my sense is that civility is being over-enforced here. I'm not talking about posts that are abusive or threatening or obviously insensitive to someone. Rather, civility seems to sometimes be interpreted to prohibit posts that are pretty innocuous simply because someone else may not like them. That's sounds a little like the heckler's veto to me.
