    Default Who Here Supports Freedom Of Speech.

    Do you? It doesn't matter. Because most forums don't. Why? Because they only allow you to like things. Not dislike them. Because if you disliked them, you would have to say unpleasant things about them. That just isn't allowed. Which makes all the members at those other forums slaves. I will show you some memes dealing with freedom of speech that I posted at a few other forums. I got banned anyway. And apparently the members there didn't give a shit. I wonder if things will be any different here.

    So, can you cut to the chase and enlighten us as to what exactly got you bounced from other forums?

    And is this account a sock for here?

    Perhaps you should spend some time reading the forums before trying to gaslight everyone.
    If the freedom of speech is taken away
    then dumb and silent we may be led,

    Don't change the subject. Either you support freedom of speech or you don't. Which is it.

    Man, I'd probably be with you, more than you know, but you're starting off with a chip on your shoulder.
    lighten up man.

    If not well...
    I'm very sorry you were kicked off of other forums, I've been there, I feel your pain. (picture of Bill Clinton here)
    What can we do to help you work through your trauma dude?

    I agree with basically every quote you posted here. Here's a link to our Quotes Page LINK . Does that help?
    This is not really a therapy forum for people recently gone through a bad forum divorce, but hey some of us are very caring and sympathetic like NightTrain and Gunny and JimmmyNYC too. you should PM message them with all you're worries.

    -cough-
    please don't PM them. lol!

    I already explained that we support freedom of speech, but that we also have some rules. Yes, your account apparently originally got banned. Your Proxy server, for your safety or not, is listed on a few public ban lists. I err on the side of caution as we get completely inundated with accounts like that. You contacted me, I replied, you replied a 2nd time - and your account was then unbanned by myself. I explained then why the software triggers that and it is by design. The software doesn't just ban a new member thinking it's a spammer - the software checks multiple public databases and if on a listed database, it triggers the ban. But one wouldn't be listed on such a database unless that IP was truly used for abusive reasons. And no, that doesn't mean that was you. But when using an IP address that is on a shared server or service with other people, that's why the negative association.

    I have no problem with folks protecting themselves while surfing the internet. In fact, I recommend it. But when it's a shared service of some sort or where the same IP address is shared, then shit can happen.

    I know all about forum rules. But the devil is in the details. I have also found out what any forum are when it get right down to it. Follow the herd, or else! Also, as I said, these days I do have problems getting into forums. Apparently you all use the same "anti-spam" software. That aside, thanks for letting me join.

    STFU already. You don't care about free speech. You care about YOUR speech. After all, why should you read what others write? After all, it's just their free speech. Their speech of course is the stuff of sheep while yours is ... insults?

    You talk a damned big game and have yet to impress anyone with a word of it.

    You want to be "impressed?" I have been around the block enough to know that it wouldn't be allowed here. But I know of a couple of forums where you could read many impressive things. Truthful things. But one dealing with truth is such a ghost town that even the ghosts there would be lonely. And another is about as equally of a crappy forum. They allow me to say what I want there. But they will just move it down into their "shit" category. Where you have to be a member to even see it. Thing is, I almost certainly wouldn't be allowed to tell you what either of those forums are. One time at another forum I tried to tell somebody in a PM. The forum banned me for doing so. So much for the "private" part of a private message.

    If one desires to express one's views, unfiltered, without restraint, then such an internet-Worldy individual should start one's own board where said individual can post whatever one wants. One can then dictate what others post.

    But that isn't anywhere near as "fun" for twisted individuals to disrupt others and/or the work of others, is it? There's always "that" person looking to take advantage of the good-natured kindness of others and destroy it.
