Dark0ne Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 Are you not insulted someone hasn't offered you up as a sacrifice? :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darnoc Posted June 16, 2004 Author Share Posted June 16, 2004 Peregrine, Peregrine... Before throwing strikes around, please think first. I didn't reopen anything, I especially mentioned that this is a new thread, with connection towards the old one but with a slitly different discussion. The discussion should be more in general, like why to mention any word (it doesn't matter which word) is forbidden or should be forbidden. Secondly, I am bound by my principles to question everything. And this I can do, because questioning is not forbidden on this forum. Or at least I know no rule against it, correct me if I am wrong. And I am questioning now the reason for a certain rule in this forum, which is of course my right to do, since it is not forbidden. As you can see, I haven't done anything against the rules, so I kindly plead you to remove this quite unnecessary strike. Thanks for your attention, Peregrine.

Shakkara Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 So, cause Peregrine has closed the thread with the two unmentionable words, I will open a new one Darnoc, when a thread is closed by a moderator, you do not repost it. Especially without asking permission first. As long as you've been on this forum, you should know better. Strike one for ignoring moderator instructions. That's grade A bullshit and you would know it if you had bothered to look at the threads more closely. And honestly, I'm sick of the "I have a right to free speech" argument. You do not have an infinite right to free speech. If you come into my house and say things I find offensive, I have every right to remove you. It's no different on the internet. Dark0ne pays for the forums, Dark0ne decides what is allowed on them. The ban on discussing the unmentionables is no different from the ban on flaming or the ban on offensive language. And inquiring into the reasons behind his rules is wrong in what way? If you had bothered to look at the intitial post, it's not about free speech at all, as Darnoc said "His right to run this site as he sees fit trumps others’ rights to say what they will about what they will. Is it fair? I think so." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right, damn quote system doesn't display all post and I thought the one at the bottom would be the first one in the thread... :mellow: Anyway, the point still stands that Darnoc wants to know the reasons behind Dark0nes decisions, and does not seem to question his authority.

vandorssen Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 Shakkara, if I may also suggest, with deference to yourself and Peregrine, that the small picture and quote you have added to your signature seems, from my perspective, slightly inflammatory by nature, and perhaps even a little distasteful. I think your point would be better received sans your protestant signature. Again, I do not necessarily mean any disrespect, but I am attempting to give you the benefit of my dispassionate point of view on the issue.
