There are rules here that you clearly think that you don't have to follow.

Re: What the ....... (It's a free speech forum here, not a jail, is it not?)

and why was my link removed in this post:

http://forum.dvdtalk.com/11819370-post73.html

... without the link it doesn't make any sense ... the link was there to go along with my comment, which is suggested to do according to Posting Guidelines ...

There was absolutely NO reason to remove the link to the Source in that post of mine......

None of the rules were broken in that post / thread ...

Or are you guys creating them or imagining them as you speak ...

This was there originally to accompany my comment in a post mentioned above:

The Mesquite Rodeo is Bringing in an Obama Clown

WTF .. I see no reason for the Mod to remove that link and entirely f*ck up that post of mine.

Because you were asked specifically to stop posting links in the forum.

Re: What the ....... (It's a free speech forum here, not a jail, is it not?)

Where .. and why?

I wanted to comment .. but without that link .. my comment wouldn't even make sense?

Why abuse Moderator's power, me say ... Aren't moderators supposed to be neutral instead of trying and bully a newbie or anyone?

I did jack basically .. to you or to anyone else here ..

"Ooooh .. he posted a link" .. Whoopie .......

Re: What the ....... (It's a free speech forum here, not a jail, is it not?)

Yes, that I saw ...

But that would or should apply ONLY to the comment-less / link-only posts ... etc ..

but my comment where you removed that link (mentioned above) was VALID, and in those cases:
- The use of links is strongly encouraged. When quoting outside resources please provide a link to the material if at all possible. This is especially important if you are quoting just a section of the original text so that quote can be put back into the context that it was originally in.
Without that link you make ME look like a clown in that thread, nevermind Obama Clown .....

Re: What the ....... (It's a free speech forum here, not a jail, is it not?)

Let me make this perfectly clear:

- You, Darkman00, have been barred from posting links into the Politics forum until further notice.
- You, Darkman00, have also been asked to recuse yourself from posting in the Politics forum for one week

Oh!

That's new!

-- "recuse myself from posting in the Politics forum for one week" -- What can we expect in a week?? .. that I won't be such a newbie by then and the bullying might mellow down somewhat, or because "one week vacation from posting in the Politics forum" gonna make me feel better about my entire situation here, ... or because after a week you (or anyone else, for that matter) might magically start feeling all warm and fuzzy towards me .. or?

-- "barred from posting links into the politics forum until further notice" -- Well, don't hold back .. What's next should I expect .....

http://forum.dvdtalk.com/religion-po...-ptii-150.html

and all is peachy with everyone ... no bullying, no b*tching, no whining ... everything is cool ...

Exception from the rules for some .. I guess .....

My post was a paraphrase from a classic (archived) thread: The Idiot Moderators Keep Moving My Posts.

It was another occasion when somebody barged into the forum, then expected the forum to accommodate his own posting preferences, rather than conforming his posts to the forum's norms and rules.

Ah ... OK ... I see

"It is what it is" then ... (to paraphrase from one guy that I watch on YouTube from time to time).

Oh man.


This post is for all you jackass moderators. I am doing you a favor by posting on your site. My username deserved to stay in the way we originally name them. It is quite disrespectful to change my name for no apparent reason. So....IF IT ISN'T OFFENSIVE, DON'T TOUCH IT! If you do this one more time, I will never post anything else in your forum again!

What's next is a suspension or two, and then a banning. I'm guessing this will all occur before the month is out. Certainly it'll all be over by Halloween.

Supermallet should change his user title to moderator/prophet.

Predicting past events. I haven't tried that one yet.

I smell drunk posting by SM.

Yes...unless you question that one power hungry, insane administrator who somehow still has a job here.

Hey look, my 3 month suspension is over.
