Talk about a censored web forum.

All I did was ask about the GS SUT and how it would compare to the
Revo, and they deleted the post.

Ridiculous.  They're living in a dream world by thinking that kind of
behavior can trick people into thinking that Traxxas is the only RC
manufacturer.

Any good FAIR PLAY web forums devoted to RC cars and trucks?

They do state the rules up front.  If you don't like the rules, then
don't play there.

I don't post on the Traxxas forums for various reasons.

They say "no Traxxas bashing."
But they delete any posts that even mention another company's
products.  In fact, made the same request there regarding alternative
forums, and they deleted THAT post.  :)

But you're right, they own the site and can do whatever they want.  I
just didn't realize they were such Nazis about it.

I don't see why everyone expects a corporate owned site to be objective
about their products.  The motiviation behind any business is money, and any
discussion of other products or forums is free advertising for their
competition.  If you want a free discussion, you can have one on a third
party or public domaign forum.  That doesn't make Traxxas bad, it just makes
them a business that refuses to advertise for the competition.

That is demonstratably untrue.  Go to
http://monster.traxxas.com/search.php?s=
and do a few searches.

3000+ hits on proline.

1700+ hits on savage.

1500+ hits on ofna.

If I had more than one thread that got killed in a short timeframe I'd
think it'd be time for me to look in the mirror.

Are you familiar with Godwin's law?

Well the Revo isnt out yet so your not going to get any worthwhile
information from that question.
Below link they bitch back and forth all the time about which is better
than what.
Revo vs LST, LST vs Genesis, Genesis vs Revo, LST vs Revo vs Genesis.
Yet none of these are out yet.  POINTLESS for now.
