It started as a yellow warning icon (which I still feel is wrong),
but the moderators escalated this by making demands that I agree
to never post a link to another video again, even if it was a
video that I had made myself. Then Mbrio responds to my comparing
the of the warning icons to defamation of character (I was
referencing their stated rule 4.1), and demands that I mail
a hand written letter that I agree to allow the warning icons
within 24 hours or be banned.

That is what I would call extreme.

In the words of Rambo, "they drew first blood".

Please note that I didn't start this thread. The orignal complaint
is that the moderators are deleteing or closing threads, and
issuing more warnings than they used to. I was just pointing out
my specific case as an example of things getting carried away.
