Not everything that happens on a site happens in full public viewing. I base my belief that this isn't going to happen on the fact that it's been suggested before and hasn't been done yet, and on my own experience as a forum administrator myself. I know I wouldn't put one of these kinds of things in place for that very reason. The concept of it is stupid and would be wasteful of database space to keep crap like that around. So I think it's reasonable enough to assume I'm not the only one who thinks that.

Dissent may not be disrespect, but the way you're conducting it here has been very disrespectful. You've all but accused the staff of being fascist and nazis. You make outright demands in an effort to get your way. I think they've been more than patient with you but even in the field of customer service there comes a time when someone crosses the line and are asked to knock it off. Maybe you can't see it, but it seems clear to me that you've been asked to knock it off. The only recourse left if you refuse is to punish you in some way.

In a retail setting, security would physically escort you out of the building. I know. I worked retail for 8 years. I've seen it done on occasion. The person will protest loudly, scream abuse, brutality, and even racism, but when all is said and done, there's a mountain of evidence to support the action taken.

On a forum, unruly posters will be banned from participation. I know. I run a forum and I've had to ban someone once already for exactly that. The person will protest loudly, scream abuse, censorship, bias, make demands, and even act like a raving lunatic, but when all is said and done, there's a mountain of evidence to support the action taken.

So are you trying to help them build this mountain on purpose?


On a side note, I always get a chuckle out of seeing automated profanity filtering blot out a word. Leaves so much to the imagination even when the original word is relatively harmless
