    Quoted from TheLaw:

    I always enjoy your posts Jon but the whole "internet censorship" issue is just so old and overplayed.
    This isn't a website run by out tax dollars, this is a private website run by people, and you follow what they say, or you leave, It isn't a hard thing to comprehend.
    This also isn't a court of law with ex post facto law. If the owners/mods say stop doing something, and the only defense is "Buuuut Mooooommmm...you never said we can't do that..." is just childish.

    This is exactly correct of course so I couldn't agree more.

    I've been on so many different internet discussion forums it isn't funny, and on every one of them you always have a number of members that will raise "censorship" or even the 1st Amendment, neither of which apply to a moderated privately run forum.

    Bottom line, we do *not* have any "rights" here.

    Didn't FlipperFingers get banned for creating an alternate identity to start that thread on Race and Pinball?

    Quoted from starfighter:

    Each Mod uses his own judgement when making decisions and that can lead to different interpretations on what action should be taken in any given thread.

    They use their own judgment?! Oh the humanity!

    You think maybe that's why it take THREE votes from three different moderators to get a temporary ban?

    Quoted from bigehrl:

    I’ve personally witnessed, and participated in many unlawful, harassing, defamatory, abusive, threatening, harmful, sexually-oriented, racially offensive, and profane posts on a daily basis from countless members of this site.

    If this is what you are seeing and participating in on a "daily basis from countless members of this site" then maybe it's time to find a new site?

    Quoted from PinballHelp:

    Personally, I think the only thing that should be sanctioned is personal attacks.

    lol

    I don't think that sentence means what you think it means.
