Looks like pretty insipid stuff at present. Where have all the old protagonists gone to?

I felt a definite improvement after your last banning.

Starting a Thread called The demise of the 'Debates' thread? with a post like the one above makes you seem like a complete tosser.

Anyone want to discuss that?

Hard to discuss a topic when everyone's in agreement.

Answer: despite the 'liberal' assertions of RedHot Pawn and despite their apparent encouraging of 'debate', the assinine modulators actually DISCOURGAGE debate. They do this by CENSHORSHIP. They censor what they do not like. They exert power over what debate should be. They ban people from their opinions!!! Thus, the moderators of rerdhot pawn are, in actual fact, deniers of freedom of speech.

I love it when people are completely ignorant of what their rights really are. You don't have freedom of speech, you have the freedom to speak without fear of state reprisal (although, even that has been taken away in many cases). You do NOT have the freedom to speak freely within the confines of a private organization. Redhotpawn moderators can censor you and it doesn't violate your rights.

Private institutions can censor your speech and it does not violate the law just like I can kick you out of my house if I don't like the things that you say.

With that being said, I hate it when the moderators censor the debates thread. It is usually for the most asinine and ridiculous reasons too.

I also hate the lame trolls that we see on here. I guess I just don't like anything, do I?

I think it should be renamed Moaning Right Winger's Copy & Paste Forum
That would seem to be far more appropriate!
A collective "aah" for all those suffering middle-aged, middle-class white boys & their tax burdens.

What was he banned for? And how do you know? Is there a list of "the banned" somewhere that the moderators keep posted?

There was, but it seems the Wall of Shame has been removed. 😞

TOSsers are the bible belt of RHP dogma.
Check out the forum moderation thread in General.

However, I still think there are some pretty good matters discussed here.

I mean, I get to hear opinions you haven't heard in Europe since the dark ages.

I always considered DSR to be indisputible evidence of my right to free speech. Who's getting censored if he's not?
