    After being banned from after hours and personal issues, its time to think that certain opinions are not welcome on boards. Whether the individual and their style of thinking is not accepted into a community causes so many problems in the justice of our society, yet the stereotype is reinforced by the "numb skull" moderators of this website! Any similar experiences are welcome on this thread if not don't post! Its about time someone post on this thread who thinks on my wavelenght and not a moderator who thinks on a specific sprectrum and doesn't appreciate the thoughts no matter how manifested of others!
    Boards.ie
    One question, does free speech mean you get banned for saying something that is in a rule that denies the right to free speech?
    If so, have in your charter: "free speech on this site is limited". Get honest and real with yourself and your users! It's like you want the perfect small, dark haired, computer nerd race on your site!

    The admins have never advertised boards as a bastion of free speech. ever.

    upthere, do a search about this. There have a been a few similar threads over the years.

    Certain things are not allowed on Boards and therefore locked/censored. Repeat offenders get a ban.

    I don't know why you were banned, but did you ask the mod of each forum?

    Have a nice day. Enjoy the lovely posts that follow.

    So why are you still here? Free speech is not and never will be part of what boards is about. Do you think you're the first muppet to get up in arms about being banned? Please...

    You are not very smart as you are denying free speech yet you are a personal issues moderator?! What a joke! Get real! I'm right in what I say no matter how much it offends someone! Numb skull!

    Clear you are not smart enough to be allowed to have a boards.ie account and for your sake and the sake of everyone else I am hoping you will be site banned.

    Have a nice life.

  • Registered Users Posts: 19,396 ✭✭✭✭Karoma


    hullaballoo dunnit.
    Grow some manners. How would you like it if I called you a muppet? Muppet. See you in two months. Or rather, when you sign up your account to complain about the injustice of this ban.


  • Registered Users Posts: 22,231 ✭✭✭✭Sparky

    I was thinking we need a boards award for feedback threads.

    So you are saying that you have only one thing on your mind and the mods have a whole spectrum of thoughts? Yeah, I think you're right.

    Last night, I warned this person in two different PI threads, and when they seemed to be quiet, I headed off to bed. But lo and behold, I miss all the craic.

    Thanks to whoever gave the siteban. Much appreciated.
