Calling another user a loser is a flaming violation. This is a minor violation so your post will remain, however further violations may result in your posts getting deleted.


The fuck is this shit?!

This is what Orwell was talking about

Orwell was greatly concerned with how a free-to-use private message board service was going to be run?

Seriously, you guys need to stop acting like this was ever a democracy.

This is what Orwell was talking about

Orwell was talking about masses brainwashed by media into ignoring the state of the world and worshipping celebrities, people ratting each other out usually resulting in death or torture, global war against an enemy that's never clearly defined for the purpose of maintaining the military-industrial complex, and idiots not learning from fucking history

but you do you

Be careful, referring to a situation as "heck" is offensive to the feelings of the citizens of heck and is now considered flaming under the new rules.

I HAVE A RIGHT TO FREE SPEECH! WHAT RIGHT DO YOU HAVE TO DELETE MY MESSAGES?
Yes, you may have a right to free speech, but not here. When you signed up for the GameFAQs message boards, you voluntarily gave up the right to certain kinds of speech in return for the ability to use the boards. If you do not feel that you can follow the rules here, you have the right to create your own message boards and make your own rules there. GameFAQs is a private business, and if you'd actually read the Bill of Rights, you'll see that "Freedom of Speech" applies to the government, not here.

Although I hate how censored gamefaqs is, without the discussion here would devolve so quickly.

There are plenty of places on the net to spew crap. I'm ok with gamefaqs being strict, as long as they don't start banning ideas.

For instance, people who are very socially conservative.

That has more to do with who you are. There is a clear and apparent bias in how the moderations are dispensed. That just looks more like an excuse to hit you than an actual violation.

They specifically loosened the rules a few years ago. Did that have disastrous consequences I'm not seeing which warranted this new rule?

I mean I'm fine with modding flaming, but it's gone beyond that in some cases.

This is true with alucard deleting "offensive" messages on CE that no one has marked when they hurt his feelings, but in this particular case, the moderation was fair under the new rules. I'm just surprised someone actually marked it in the first place.
