I don't think I ever insulted anyone. I enjoy TL and mostly come here for SC strats, discussion of games, and those random, enjoyable general posts. I've helped some people on strats and I have helped add to several discussions. Furthermore, a lot of my posts are in Liquidbet. | ||

Considering the concept of private property, if you go to somebody's house and behave in a way that is not according to their requirements, they have every right to boot you off their property. Yes, they have the right. That's not the point. If they righteously kick you out due to what you say, that remains an action against your freedom of speech. If they have the right to do that or not doesn't matter a second. You might be given the right to kill me, that remains a threat to my right to live. Ridiculous? I don't think so. Neither do I think using such words will make you look intelligent. | ||

" Freedom of speech is being able to speak freely without censorship " http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freedom_of_speech Yes I do. Now if you have anything intelligent and useful to contribute the discussion with, I'd be glad to hear it. | ||

Now if you have anything intelligent and useful to contribute the discussion with, I'd be glad to hear it. I asked the question because your running around in circles [and as far as I see there is no intelligent discussion here], not contributing anything but preaching your freedom of speech mantra. There never was and never will be freedom of speech on TL. People have brought up the topic countless times, argued it to no end, and failed. Live with it. | ||

How does this differ in real life? If you write in a newspaper and write trash/something that isn't acceptable, they will edit it out. Freedom of speech is a right, but with that right comes responsibility. Absolutely, but you don't seem to have read the initial debate. It was about banning people for what they say. Not how they say it, rather what, the content. I know there are special cases, but people getting banned for questionning the mods' decisions is an abuse of that right to ban, in my opinion. I can't remember that guy's aka, but there was one who got banned for questionning bans. That is going too far. | ||

 EDIT: We're not stopping you from spewing your bullshit elsewhere, just not here. It's just like you can't just walk into the Senate and start shouting your worthless opinion in the middle of a meeting. They can make you shut up there without infringing on your freedom of speech, because frankly, you can go outside and bitch all you want, just not there. | ||

Now did you just call my opinions "bullshit" and "worthless opinions"? | ||

I have seen numerous debates between mods and members in which the members questioned a ban, banning policy, or other things and I have never seen someone banned for simply questioning as long as WHAT they said was reasonable, not derogatory or insulting. I really think you should find who this guy is because I think your exaggerating the facts. | ||

The "you" in my statements was to address all readers of my post, not directly you. But because it is addressing everyone, yes, yes it was talking to you. But not just you. Don't feel too special. You can still print my words out and frame it and tell your grandkids I referenced you though. | ||
