1. Certainly you can criticize and challenge. I'm alway somewhat suspicious of the term 'right' people seem to get carried away with it. You have no satutory 'right' but it is allowed on this forum as long as the language is reasonably civil.
2. Probably, unless doing it just makes you feel better.
3. Probably not. From what I've seen, so far you haven't said anything that will influence either the moderators or the 'powers that be' on this site. Not to be unkind, but it mostly sounds like whining.
4. Difficult question since you are talking about things that are to a certain extent subjective. A number of posters, some no friends of the moderators, have made the point that technically speaking most of the deletions are justified. I don't know whether it's a matter of being capricious or a matter of passing someone's tolerance level. It could be something as mundane as available time. I'm sure others have been just as indignant about many of the things that have been posted. Is your indignation of more merit than theirs?
