so you guys say that none of the mods censor.
THIS ONE HAS NO FLAME. IT IS POORLY WRITTEN BUT IS THAT A REASON TO LOCK IT UP? http://www.totse.com/bbs/Forum7/HTML/001028.html THIS ONE HAS NO FLAME. I ASKED PEOPLE TO TELL ME WHAT THEY THINK OF CENSORSHIP. WHATS IS SO EVIL ABOUT THAT? WHY WOULD A MOD LOCK IT? BECAUSE HE GETS A HARDON WHEN HE EXHIBITS HIS "POWER"? http://www.totse.com/bbs/Forum7/HTML/001025.html
THIS ONE IS THE LEAST OFFENSIVE POST I HAVE EVER MADE, YET IT IS STILL LOCKED. NOT MOVED. LOCKED http://www.totse.com/bbs/Forum7/HTML/001027.html
Okay, can anyone answer this with out an insult? tell me how this is the right thing for a mod to do.

Re: examples
It�s obvious that your pursuit of happiness cannot be fulfilled here, via your threads, and it is also very obvious that your threads are not acceptable as well, so then why I ask do you insist on attempting to rally support in your favor when it�s just not going to happen.
Your agenda is fruitless and falls on deaf ears!
Get the hint numb-nuts?
Are you a glutton for punishment?

those locked posts might have something to do with the fact that you're just a demented byproduct of ignorance.

Guess what nerd? enigma had signatures disabled for a time because incidents that you have mentioned. They are indeed 'disriptive' More over, read over what sckbch said, I am far from being his high priest, but most of you that post this mindless shit are all 'by-products' of ignorance. Whether it's taught in the grand ecoles or not. I'll give you an example: Today, I met a by-product of ignorance I asked her one fucking question, "Is there a post office facility on campus?' She paused, thought about it, and coupled with the confused face I got a staggering, 'no' And I turned away and said 'thanks' Bongman is stuck in a malestom in my opinion. The simple fact that he chooses to dedicate himself to 'Bad Ideas' is worthy of a wool sweater. [This message has been edited by Lokil (edited 12-12-2001).]

Re: examples
Bongman has closed one of my threads, so has schbch and lokil. See me crying.
This site belives that no opinion should be censored. It also has to run on a server and your shit that is repeated with only a few words changed is a waste of time. They havn't censored your post they're still there to look at. Every single word, the same way you wrote it. Do you understand censorship?
Instead of writing this shit, go and post something interesting like how you got fucked up the shithole when in jail for stealing sweets.

Re: examples
cobra, censorship is the removal of content. Or access to content. Examples of this: - Deleting text / offensive material - deleting whole threads - Removing a user (hence denying access)
That is censorship, and that is what this board is against.
Moving a thread, or locking a post because it has gone out of control is the alternative to deleting posts/threads, and removing user accounts.
If you were being censored we wouldn't know about even a complaint. And since you are complaining i doubt you are being censored.

Re: examples
STOPPING PEOPLE FROM COMMUNICATING ABOUT A PARTICULAR SUBJECT BY LOCKING A THREAD IS CENSORSHIP.
IF SOMEONE POSTS A THREAD THAT INSULTS COBRA, AND THEN THAT THREAD IS LOCKED, AND OTHERS THAT ATTEMPT TO INSULT ME ARE LOCKED, THEN THAT WOULD BE CENSORSHIP RIGHT?

Re: examples
I don't believe anything should be censored. If someone is just being a complete idiot, you should lock the thread, and leave his/her writings up as a testament to that persons stupidity. Later, if they ever grow up, they might reveiw that thread and feel profound embarressment at having written such garbage. You just do the person a favor by deleting or editing their post. If they truly become a serious nuisance...just ban them for a year. There is no reason to play god. It's just too much like the government.

"STOPPING PEOPLE FROM COMMUNICATING ABOUT A PARTICULAR SUBJECT BY LOCKING A THREAD IS CENSORSHIP. IF SOMEONE POSTS A THREAD THAT INSULTS COBRA, AND THEN THAT THREAD IS LOCKED, AND OTHERS THAT ATTEMPT TO INSULT ME ARE LOCKED, THEN THAT WOULD BE CENSORSHIP RIGHT?"
cen-sor-ship n 1 a: the institution, system, or practice of censoring. b: the actions of censors.
cen-sor n 2 b: an official who reads communications and DELETES material considered harmful to the interests of his organization.
So actually it isn't censorship, censorship involves deleting material.
Locking posts down might be annoying to you. But who says you can't, oh say, open other threads and complain about the same thing. If you were really censored you wouldn't be able to open new threads to complain about it.

No one is stopping you from communicating with anyone about anything. There are numerous reasons for locking a thread. There are also numerous ways of continuing to discuss a topic if it is that important to you, take email or irc for instance.

Re: examples
but they are keeping us from comunicating here at totse. that is what i am talking about. i know how to use e-mail, and im not trying to make it out like there is some kind of attrocity going on here. i just think that a site like this is misleading about free speech and the some mods abuse there authority.
weed>>>> i thought you were going to " delve deeper into my personal life" you wanna be hacker.
