ian14 Freedom of speech only applies when done in conjunction of the forum rules we all agreed to this when we registered as members you could always resign your membership of the forum if you feel it is infringing on your right to free speech

so why haven't all the other people that 'post off topic' been banned?

Up for promotion are we? Only your tongue looks a little brown from here

The term "rules are rules" is such a miss leading statement. Rules are just guidelines that are there to make things run more efficiently however, it does not mean that they have to be followed to the letter as it isnt law. Law is the only thing that should be followed to the letter and even that can be bent. I agree that the whole off topic thing on a thread is wrong UNLESS the question in hand HASN'T been answered. If it has i don't see the problem with it after all social progression is human nature were not machines. As for freedom of speech I personally think ,after your statement, that you are a complete idiot!!! Thousands upon thousand of people died for your right to freedom of speech who the hell is anyone to take that away from someone!!!!

Because certain people can get away with it. This place has a clique you see if you dont fit in your an easy target. There was an example of a mods other half being insulting to a member on here and the person who replied back got the infraction. Fair isnt it.

Im sure what ive put will earn me an infraction but as this thread is an off topic thread any way, i havent broke any "rules" by having my say.

I am sorry, but things like this really annoy me. This is a privately-owned website, and "freedom of speech" does not apply - the owner can decide who they allow to post, for whatever reason they choose, just as you can decide who is allowed into your house. Just because it is publically viewable doesn't make the slightest bit of difference. Likening it to a human-rights-freedom-of-speech issue is just insulting to people who really DO suffer under such things.

That said, Wildlife Warrior is great, hope he will be back soon...

WLW should not be banned ok yea i have seen him have few desputes with people but nothing personall. its allways been about the welfare of the snake.

bring him back he has helped most people on this forum and made most of us laugh aswell.

we should do a protest bring back WLW

[royalpython]

He always seems very willing to help, and i think he would be a valuable member of any reptile forum. He's helped me tenfold that's for sure!!

Of course freedom of speech applies on here...... if it wasnt then you would not be allowed to have your view nor would I. Each topic would be covered by one set answer, there would be no room for debate or difference in opinions. I do understand your views, however, I still stand by what I have said.
