Riiiight - free to express any thought.



Have I ever removed one of your copy and paste "jokes"?

No.

You are free to express whatever "joke" you want to even if it is a copy and paste piece of shit you stole from somebody else.

That said, you also open yourself up to criticism for not being original in your attempts to be "funny." That's not censorship. That is being held accountable for the material you post via another person's opinion.

If somebody thinks a commentary by another person on something they've posted is censorship, then they really need to crack open a dictionary and look up the word.

. . . and we can dispute this because we have access to the deleted threads so that we can prove our point, right?

You certainly don't have to take my word on it. Other members of the moderation staff certainly have access. Maybe you can find one that is sympathetic to your cause. Have them check our recycle bin for any instances of your posts that have been trashed to see exactly what kind of censorship you might have suffered.

If you think you've been censored on this web site unjustly, you are more than welcome to escalate the situation with the owners.

However, your claim is simple shit stirring and not founded in fact.

I have made no claim that I have been censored. But I know that some have.
I know, or have at least met almost all of the moderators personally, I have yet to meet DSE, but I think I have most of the present and past mods covered as well, even HH.

Well except for Remmi, but he doesn't really count anyway.:ph34r:

On more than one occasion, by more than one mod, I was told, (Paraphrasing) Well, I just didn't like what was said, it had been a bad day and I didn't want to have to deal with it. So I took it away.

People are people so . . . Censor happens.

So when does censorship become a bad thing?

--Pretty much always.

You don't hesitate to censor content here on this web site.

--Excuse me?

--The moderation staff here is VERY hesitant to censor content. What we won't hesitate to do is stop an on-line fight between users, but you are free to post any just about any idea or image you want to. The only real hard and fast exceptions are personal attacks and anything having to do with pedophilia.




Exactly, and since I agree with your rules of unacceptable material, we can agree that your censorship is a GOOD thing. But if I didn't agree, I could crown myself an authority on what is right and wrong, as some like to do, and declare your censorship rules narrow minded and provincial. Cause after all shouldn't I be given the right to make my own decisions on what I should or should not see.

I know how you feel. I wasn't on dz.com for a year or more. I came back, and there's a lot more shit slinging (as opposed to shit stirring and shit talking), a lot more name calling (aimed at groups to include other posters without directly naming them), and even greenies are shorter tempered and more likely to be provoked (and respond in kind). But then when you have entire threads bashing mods, I guess it'll happen.

Yet you will start a fight and insult people. That is funny.

"You should probably have an understanding of something before spouting off about it"

And what about not playing the player?

"Oh gee, Larry the Cable Guy chimes in."

Meh - this is a political forum - politics is a tough business. You have to have a thick skin.

Complaining about a overyemotional response in SC is like complaining to your packer that you got line twists.

Quite right.

If we want to have SC be a place where it is more of a civil atmosphere, then the mods should set an example. If we don't want it to be civil, then the mods should set an example. When the mods are so often rude, it isn't so far to go to where it is a personal attack.
People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am
