I used the word "goddamn" and someone deleted it. I mean, seriously, that's considered offensive? Really?

i actually do take offense to that one, sorry man. i'm in the army tho, everyone has a potty mouth, and no matter how many times i ask, no one makes any real effort to stop using foul language. i actually got in trouble for putting up a sign asking people not to curse while i was working the tool room. it's nice to be somewhere that people have some class.

Yep, even though I DO have very different views than most here, I don't try to force them on others at all. You are right, that is offensive and ignorant. But isn't the mod almost forcing his on me?

But, again, let me repeat, I CHOOSE to be a member of this forum.

In my opinion, to answer your question, no, the mod is not "almost forcing" his beliefs on you. He is reminding everyone of the terms and conditions for using this private site. That viewpoint is usually what causes grief for some users. We all had to click "agree" before we were allowed to post up. oh, and the mod's beliefs may be different than the site rules. I doubt it, but it's possible.

This forum is for adults... and as such we should be treated in that way... Censorship is a slippery slope... It often ends in burning books and imprisoning those with whom we do not agree... let freedom reign and if people do not like the language they are free to leave....

Or in the case of the Org, the language will be edited.

Man, you must be hating Canada at the moment, then. - The CPC has a huge majority!

You might have to move to America! (I hear Californiastan is outrageously liberal.)

If you don't like the rules, you are also free to leave. This has been and always will be a family friendly site. If you are looking for a Hayabusa forum geared only to adults, there are a few of them out there.

You are free to voice your opinion. Your assumtion that this is a site only for adults is not correct. The language rules are basically the same as those for non premium TV channels. There are a few words/phrases in addition to what TV prohibits that we believe are offensive and prohibit here as well.

It's not considered censorship when you have been told up front that it is not allowed.
