Technically, a forum like ours is a house. It's owned by someone. And the owner makes the rules for his house! If you don't like it, you don't need to visit his house! Based on that we also ban people. Because the owner of the house doesn't need to let everyone in.
Our house is a house made out of glass. Everyone can look in without entering the house.
As you know, glass is very fragile, so you need help, being the owner, protecting all the glass. That's what mods do. They enforce the rules the owner has given and every visitor has to follow, and they protect the house from being distroyed.
One thing I find very interesting.
The poster was informed and he understands the issue.
And now you join the party just to cause trouble?
V, if you have problems with what we do, here is what you can do:
a) complain via PM or Email to the Admins/Mods
b) leave
But don't start trash talk like that my friend.
Thank you.

But since you decided to take it so seriously, I must conclude that there was some truth to my joke - however unexpected that may be to me. So, allow me to retort: I don't understand why you would want to first encroach on the freedom of speech and then go and specifically attack the one person who had balls to stand up to your totalitarian measures (me). So prove your point to the mute, pal. You should know me better by now.

Oh, and we ALL chip in for this "house" (Contributors, remember?!), wanna take a poll and see who'd vote against the freedom of speech on this forum? If majority votes against the freedom of speech, I'll leave.
Moral of this story? Don't f*ck with me when I'm righteous, Andre!

My dear V,
nowhere in your post you make clear you are joking. In fact, I think you were not.
I did not attack you, I explained why the deletion happened and does not violate freedom of speech!
Truth is, you have even been reported, so it is pretty obvious I am not the only one that saw the truth here, that this was no joke!
You like to talk about respect, truth, moral... and I am very often missing it in your comments!!!

LOL, Mag I like the look of your car (although yes, I prefer shadowline too). Still love those 125's, kind of miss them, but there has been a pleasant change in mine to compensate.

Anyway, if you are saying that someone reported the original comment that you deleted - I understand why. If you're saying someone reported me for saying you encroached on freedom of speech...

I haven't done ANYTHING to have to prove to you whether I was joking or being serious, so I don't appreciate your attitude with me. You and I - PERSONALLY - have dealt with issues of images being NSFW before and my compliance in the past should speak for itself.
I've said all there is to say about this, I think this topic should be "Finito la Commedia" about two replies back.
Here's to another one of our exchanges, bud

PS My apologies to the OP for Kanye West'ing this thread.

Here is what I currently have. Any suggestions on a change?
Should I go all black kidney? Black with crome trim?

I guess that makes that person against the freedom of speech then?
I don't know... and frankly, I don't care. And neither should you IMHO.
