What else could it have been? He's never had a post rejected until recently, nor has he had any controversial approved posts to URCM AFAIK. It looks for all the world like someone actually went to the trouble of taking Rob off the passlist purely because he dared to criticise the regime on UNNC/UNNM. The fact that they didn't also do the same with you doesn't change that...maybe they thought you were too important, maybe Jackson was in a particularly bad mood when he read one of Rob's posts, maybe Rob said something particularly near the bone...at any rate the URCM "moderation" is hardly renowned for its logic, consistency or evenhandedness.

It's just another thing which shows what we're dealing with here.
