Free speech

[Catzsy]

Well as far as I am concerned 'Free Speech' means that you should be able to voice your opinion without fear provided you don't insult or demean anybody else in the process. I can see why staff are perhaps restricted in this area as it does not do morale any good but quite honestly as far as members are concerned they should be able to make up their own minds about other's opinions as on the whole they are mature enough to see
what is just posted to wind people up and what is not.

The mods are power hungry. That is just it. They can abuse their right to ban anyone for no reason all they want, but I can tell you right now, this forum is going to crash and burn if mods ban people left right and center for speaking their mind. Negative or not, opinions are allowed everywhere. Dan got banned because he spoke his mind before, and people did not like what he said. But he said it in a polite manner, he did not cause trouble all the time, he only brought it up when somebody else tried to bring it up.

The truth is, we can't do anything. That does not mean I am letting their snide comments bring me down.

Moderators do not ban people for the sake of it - I can tell you that now.

How do you know? Did Danandthe3gifts not just get banned for appealing a ban?

Thats not the mods thats the GM from what I hear.
If thats the case then Dan was banned because theres a personal issue between him and the person banning him because it was not for a serious rule break.

Where is that written?

Yeah, another thing that bugs me is that people said he was causing mayhem.

Well if anybody here does not know what debating is, then they should know it is a discussion, between people of opposing viewpoints.

There is no such thing as free speech, anywhere in the world tbh.

You can say whatever you want, but you will ultimately get punished somehow if you say the wrong thing.

Get over it.

Is this like, the fourth thread related to Undertaker's ban now?

Yep, is this the fourth post you have made telling me to get over it? Why don't you get over the fact that dan and his supporters aren't going to let this die?

A forum is were viewpoints meet and debate, that is the whole idea of a forum. HabboxForum sadly at this time doesn't reflect it.

It's also my fourth account, ironic isn't it?
