Ppl have already tried that,. They got bored and wandered off when they didnt get a reaction or if it was spam they got moved to the spam bord.

Heh. Yeah and the mods seem to like the worst culprits.

Freedom of speech does not have to imply freedom from just consequences. Acknowledging this is not the same as rejecting freedom of speech in principle, as people like Falah imply. I think he once tried to tell me that stoning someone to death for apostasy is just a 'different take' on freedom.

Is there anything you can say there that you can't say anywhere else? It appears to me that this is merely a place 'designated' for soap boxing. Being put in a place makes you less free, not more.

Why should a forum be treated any different to any other private space? You can kick someone out of your home for any reason you want. Why not your website?

Don't be so precious Borg. He was just giving an example. It doesn't have to be all about you.

You can still get done for slander on the internet. It's just a bit harder to enforce (but not much).

comon. It was my thread. It was my topic. It was my points he was addressing. I can respond to it.

You are absolutely right. If its your forum you can ban whoever you want. However if you arent applying your rules consistently you need to fess up. You also need to be clear about what opinions are not allowed. You opened up the forum to the public - you obviously want it to keep going. You need conflicting opinions to make it work.

I have obeyed your no swearing rules. I read them on the rules page when I joined. However there was also a rule about abusing other members and I copped heaps of abuse (you saw it you know) yet I saw 1 member banned because he got angry when they did it to him and no action was taken against the perpetrators. I would have gotten banned too if I wasnt laughing so much @ soren thinking i was a woman. In fact i am pretty sure that if i did what they do I would be banned anyway.

Is this true? Is this how it is?

Yeah well that is true too I guess but @ this point we are still safe to discuss politics without getting done for sedition.

Quote:


To tell the truth falah isnt a good example. You use him as an example a lot i see but actually I usually skip his posts (and yaddas) unless I am in a discussion with them because of all the copy/pastes and the holybook verses. My mind just skips over them unless I actually asked for 1.

No Borg. It is mine. You are just borrowing it.

I didn't say not to respond. I just said it was not all about you. If you did intend to make the thread about you, you should have said so in the opening post, rather than making people think it was about a free speech.

Quote:


Are you suggesting the internet is responsible for this, or is this another topic changer?

Quote:


There are not many people who oppose freedom on principle to use as examples. I could use puppet, but no-one has any idea what he is on about. I use him as an example with you because you defend a lot of the evil stuff he posts in the name of religion, as if it is OK to promote stoning people to death so long as you are a minority.
