[QUOTE="audioholic, post: 7216462, member: 549629"] I'll be glad to spell out my point more directly, then. A few people here are crying censorship, yet those opinions are not being censored. One word is. One word. One word that is almost universally considered offensive. Ive asked, more than once, for a reason why some people here feel the need to use this word to express themselves, yet Ive received not one single answer beyond 'because I want to'. We all face rules we dont necessarily agree with, every day. Part of being mature is realizing life is a set of compromises for the good of everyone. Again, Ive given ample opportunity for people to express why their need to use this word outweighs the negativity it portrays to other members. The only response is that their need to use the word outweighs the views of other people here. Dan wants everyone to believe 'trolling' is now a bannable offense. He wants everyone to believe the mod staff expects everyone to play nice. The truth is trolling is not bannable, as proven by Dan trolling by creating this thread. I bet if we knew the truth, Dan doesn't even really care, he simply has to be on the cusp of a hot topic here. He can continue trolling, he just wont be doing it while using the word Goob has made this rule about. Everything else is just crying, and trolling. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
