Is this board a dictatorship?

Sun May 27, 2012 9:35 pm

Its increasingly worrying regarding the extent of how much free speech is allowed. Really not on becuase the insecure mods cant handle it.

definitely a NO from me - I love this board.

A definite no from me, a anti.

The board does seem to be getting more PC every day

Maybe not a dictatorship per se, but certainly oligarchic with somewhat Orwellian/totalitarian qualitites to its mechanisms and management.

Yes perhaps I phrased it poorly.


Slightly totalitarian, very PC and harsh on differing opinions. But dictatorship is more eye catching :D

I've never had any posts edited and I've often been involved in discussions with members of all views on here. I disagree with everyone equally! It seems some people use the dictatorship argument as a cover for their own posting and communication flaws.

Hardly. I haven't had issues at all and neither have the ones I am making this for, they are the ones getting hit for their views and beliefs. This is my observation. Since I have come here it has gradually been getting more controlling and PC.

I don't think so, not from what I've ever removed anyway.

It's pretty obvious what is acceptable and not acceptable in general life and the same applies on here.

If your messages and constantly being deleted or edited then maybe you need to ask yourself why?

This is the thing though. The messages I have seen get modded have hardly toed the line at all generally, the racist ones obviously should go, but people have been modded for voicing an opinion or posting something barely controversial.

More PC? We'll have to do something about that then! Pass me a rhino, a naked 7 year old boy, some lubricant and a pineapple. Oh, and Jordan's soaking stinky minge.

Are you talking about your own messages or other peoples?

I noticed you said about dictatorship and deletion of a message earlier in a thread and I did look to see who deleted it but it was the person who posted it.

Because between them they decide what remains on the forum and what doesn't. That's known as Dictatorship. Freedom of Speech has never been present on this board which in truth is a new extension of the old Valley Rams board bu just sells books funny enough written by the same two dictators.
