I'm just asking a simple question on censorship? In todays world an open mind should be the rule, letting us use our best judgement on what we personally think, read, and write with the understanding of common sence and being tackful and not tacky. Do we really need someone over out shoulder watching ever word we say or type just to make sure it does not offend anyone? Even in this lifestyle people still judge before they take time to get to know someone before making false statements about them.

I think the only place that doesn't need censorship is Utopia. Only in a perfect world can you truly speak your mind and have everything you say be completely accepted for what it is. It's sad but true.

Your assuming everyone is capable of doing just that. Sadly, they are not. Where do you draw the line? ... or do you not draw a line knowing ahead of time not everyone will express themselves in such a manner.

Not allowing you to violate the rules of the site is not censorship, no matter how many times you claim it is. This is a privately owned system and as such, you have no right to say whatever you wish. It is not the responsibility of the owners of this system to allow you a pulpit from which to pursue your personal agenda.

As you were already told in email; if you cannot follow the rules set forth by the owners of this website, I suggest you find another system on which to spend your free time.

Thank you.
