Drayner wasn't in charge in Oct 2011. I'll go ahead and assume your account from that Era is banned? Fuckboy

No I really haven't. I was talking about Rape Dungeons and Aliens, which even Mocha liked. Then mods started becoming moral warriors of justice and set TI to shit.

Seems odd that you're using a different account. Why would anyone have multiple accounts.

Oh my, this thread took off like a rocket from where I left it last!
To all the nay-sayers. I dare you to go on to MMO Champion and post the exact post that the OP posted. See what happens on that site. Try it on Blizzard's forums or Raid Call's forums. Any large forum for that matter, gaming or otherwise. You will indeed get a ban. You are expected to act with decorum. This forum is VERY lenient in that regard. I am sure it is due to the maturity level of most of it's members. And maturity does not have an age boundary.
Call it "censorship" if you like. Those forums have rules, as does this one. The problem, as I observe, with this site is some of the moderators are "friends" with some of the posters on this site and that clouds their judgment to which posts get "censored".

Political Correctness
If I may let me rant for a moment!
It makes me sick how the "PC police" have infiltrated todays society am I surprised by this, NO! People today have become fat, lazy, unskilled, and too ultra sensitive. They lack the common sense and life skills that if shit ever hit the fan they would all be fish food. This kind of mentality permeates our society, because it is agenda driven. If you turn on the tv and watch the "MSM" they push these agendas down the throats of the masses untill its all they know how to consume any kind of free thinking or free speach cause's an instant mental vomit. Communist, marxist, socialist, liberals and the globalist NWO puppets want you to know nothing other than what they deem right! Let me give you an example of this kind of thinking.
Lets say there is a homeless bum of the "protected class" of society that lives in a dumpster next to my home. So heres what we are going to do Mr. Buckshot first off you cant call him homeless he is only domicile challenged lets get that straight. To make things fair we are going to take half of the money you make and give it to this productive member of society then we are going to burn your house down, because its not right you make money and have a home when he dosent. Then we are going to give him a job where you work at the same rate you are getting paid even though he dose not have the same skills but because its fair. Now that you are both equal it makes it fair, but now im homeless and stuck on the govt. welfare program? Dose not matter we have to break a few eggs to make an omelet. This is the way these people think and its all over the place. Being so "PC" only drags us down the rabbit hole but they dont care these "activist" cant get their crusty lips off the govt. teet long enough to understand there is a better way. You could give them every thing they wanted and it still would not be enough for these people.
Do we need laws and rules? Of course we do a society with out rule of law is anarchy but go too far in the other direction you have totalitarianism. A balance must be struck in order for things to have a natural flow. One of my favorite qoutes is from Thomas Jefferson "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants." Sad but this mentality is gone I fear. When the "PC police" or the govt. dont fear the population there is no end to what they will do! My point is if you let others tell you what is the right way to think and what the right things to say are then you are nothing more than lamb waiting for the slaughter. I fear that most of our young people have been fed the propaganda line for so long they know nothing else. WAKE UP before everyone is mindless jellyfish floating in a sea of political correctness! Thank you and good day.

I see what your saying and I agree 100% except the bit about young people, and that is evident threw this conversation, most TI users are teenagers and young adults, all of whom raised by the internet, the anti-pc mentality is the very thing millennials embody. The veil of pc/controling information shoved down our throats should have been removed the second we touched a web browser, unless your a sheeple.

I value freedom of speech and information very highly, but I really don't know where this idea that respect and decency is some modern liberal "politically correct" concept comes from. Back in the "good old days" of medieval England you'd be ostracized from your community if you weren't considered "neighborly" enough, and old germanic tribes used to fine people heavily for insulting another man's honor and in many circumstances it was legal to kill someone if they disrespected you. I think the moral degradation of society should be just as concerning to a conservative minded person as any NWO "political correctness" agenda.
The only moderation that I've personally done was to try to clean up the site to apply for adsense, which I've since given up on, to remove midget porn from someone's avatar, and banning someone for 3 days for bumping about a dozen threads that were years old without adding anything constructive. I do agree that some of the moderation has been heavy-handed recently, but I also think some people are abusing the lax policies and that certain areas of the site have gotten out of control. A lot of the time people report people that they're arguing with, there's hostility and insults on both sides so the whole argument gets deleted, then people complain about censorship or biased mods. It seems more like some of you are unhappy that the mods aren't biased.
I have a lot of respect for you [MENTION=9433]Solipsist[/MENTION] but it's almost comical how you're trying to paint yourself as some type of persecuted political dissident because your burn book got deleted. You're not Edward Snowden, you were acting like a gossipy highschool bitch. I agree that competition, banter, rivalries, and even a degree of hostility is healthy, but the purpose of this forum shouldn't be to reenact the movie Mean Girls. And Sketchbag please explain how Mocha's "vendetta" against you had anything to do with you getting an infraction for telling someone to cut themselves.
I think the best way to change behavior isn't through force but incentives, integration, and recognition of an individual's skills and value to the community. I'm sorry that some of the plans for the site are moving slowly, but there have been some pretty major setbacks that are going to make some of my initial goals difficult. If you're lashing out because you're frustrated just know that I'm also frustrated and I'm doing my best to ensure that we all get our place in the sun.
In the future I'm going to ask that moderators don't take action unless there has been a report or a serious violation, ie pornography, personal information, scams, private servers, etc. Profanity itself should not be a reason for deletions or infractions unless it is very excessive.
