hey everyone

i am just venting my anger on being banned from chat channels. I think it is the worst thing in the world when you cant express yourself, or even defend yourself because you cant speak anymore

I remember the first time i was banned in a chat, and that was for saying JP was a bad caster (this was on SOTG obviously)

I really think people should be allowed to say things like this, as it is their own personal opinion and i did not use any offensive language, so i can see the reason

but just now i have been banned from the KT vs ACE match chat channel. And for what? This person said he felt bad for flash losing, and i kept on stating that 'its not a big drama' and things like 'why do you feel sorry for him? because he only has an 88% winrate?'

Flash is by far and away my favorite player from SC1 or 2 (he was in the power rank once...) and i was just trying to explain even though he has lost 2 matches in a row, he is still the best player in the league, and if he retired today he would still be remembered as one of the greats.

And then i get this #$%^&* response :

firehand101 was kicked from #nanashin by NaN[AceLine] [Hey man, don't bury the lead. How does it feel to support manslaughter and covering it up with moneys?]

WHAT THE %^&*

i have read this over and over and it doesnt even make sense! wtf does this have to do with manslaughter? and covering up with moneys? you dont add an s at the end of moneys wtf?!

I was so frustrated and wanted to just say "why did you ban me?" but i cant do it because i cant type anymore!

Basically, having freedom of speech taken away sucks, it is literally one of the worst feelings i have experienced, and in my case it sucks so hard that i was banned by a guy who cant even use correct english.



far out,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,imma just watch the rest without the chat comments i guess..... love TvT's,

You do not have freedom of speech on private chat channels. Those chat channels belong to whoever is in charge of them, and they have every right to ban you for acting in a way they don't like. Chatting and interacting is a privilege, not a right.
You should not have to pay to watch the GSL, Proleague, or OSL at a reasonable time. That is not "fine" and it's BS to say otherwise. My sig since 2011. http://www.youtube.com/user/dabom88

@daboom Yup, well said. Couldn't have said it better myself. No freedom of speech in private chat channels.

Sorry OP, maybe a reality check for you. You are being kind of absurd!

and maybe i should add, that banning should be taken with a bit more seriousness. If they are obviously trolling it is okay, but other than that give them a warning or something

Getting to defend yourself from a ban isn't a right either. Daphreak said, don't act like a dick, don't do anything that might be interpreted as being controversial or antagonistic, and you wont get banned.

Are you really complaining about getting banned off of a stream chat channel?

Why? Because you'll feel bad?

It's their channel, they are the op. There is no overarching regulatory body governing how ops manage their bans. Real life and, by extension, the internet, often times doesn't revolve around your personal needs, wants, and values. If you don't like it, you can leave; or get yourself banned.

it's not a right. Take the consequences of your actions. If you can't say anything nice don't say anything at all type of deal.

On the ban list now there's only 20 people and all 20 of them deserve it (people who just continue to spam hate messages about bw, streamer, other people). With that said, you're not even banned, just kicked. You're welcome to chat as long as you're not persistant in being a dick to others (I don't know if you were).

Uh, you didn't even get banned, you got kicked. You can just type "/j #nanashin" and rejoin the room at any time.

lol, you're literally getting worked up over nothing

im not too sure... Telling JP is a bad caster in his OWN show. You'll get the same treatment in all streams, you just weren't being smart about where you were saying your things...
Stick it up. take it up. step aside and see the world
