Well at least we've finally found out who to blame....

It's TJ isn't it?

I have a laugh today because someone left a rant in my profile:

"Why are you pulling my posts? I put some of those in to get the Devs to look at it. You have no right to do that. I realize that you are British and only do what's proper but here in the US we have right that allow us to have free speech even when we are angry. You guys should try it. Instead of aggravating people."

First I was like "What the ..." then it turned to laughter during the reading! I am very flattered that he thought I was a moderator!

People, as an American, I apologize for this kind of behavior when it happens on this forum! I know all you English chaps and Australian blokes etc will completely agree that you're ALWAYS proper!

I'm sure the this person won't mind that I posted his comments anonymously because he's so into (his definition of) free speech!

Somethimes it's Better to Remain Silent and Be Thought a Fool...

LOL!

(angry user) has not made any friends yet. Colour me surprised!

I love yanks I really do and theres a really cool thing between them in the US and we here in Northern Ireland...the atlantic ocean. Sometimes they come here as tourists to ¨explore their Irish heritage¨ and see where their great great grandpappy came from...while we work out new and novel ways to seperate them from their wallets.

Me and me daughter had this one family once we met when on holiday in Florida few years back...we had them convinced their surname belonged to an ancient Irish royal bloodline and me daughter sold them a ¨genuine irish antique¨ fer 300 notes...it was actually something she picked up in the duty free before we left Belfast fer a couple quid.

She made me very proud that day.

Tell ye what op, if anyone ever accused me of being a mod, Im fairly sure Id laugh till it hurt...some pee might even leak out ^
 
The problem is American TV.

All American Actors are taught to speak English in the ‘home counties’ accent, either that or ‘cockney’, the end result of which is that the majority of Americans think everyone over here speaks like the Queen. The truth is far different especially as accents in the U.K. don’t just vary north to south, east to west but also by county and in most places they vary by town too. As a result I’ve found on my trips to the colonies I’m more often mistaken for being a criminal (Aussie) than being from the founding Nation.

Serious note.

The anonymous user who sent OP a PM doesn't realise that the American Constitution doesn't apply to the Internet, especially on privately owned forums, of companies that are not based in the USA?

No. Probably because they stopped teaching Civics in high school decades ago.

Oh the rant I could go on. But I won't.
 
That's okay. Even in the US of A Freedom of Speech doesn't prevent a private company from removing posts from a site that they own/administer. It only prevents the government from abridging the people's right to heard.

Yep. It just means the government can't throw you in jail for disagreeing with it. Nothing at all to do with non governmental entities.
 
Great Britain's not the only place that can have a Brexit vote :D

a friend said to me something which is totally inappropriate but bang on the money......
America just had to go one better...... the UK dropped her knickers and decided to pee all over the carpet with brexit....... The US followed by dropping his pants and taking a dump on the floor voting for trump.

I currently work for the European Bioinformatics institute in England, and am half funded by American money... so one way or another i will be screwed from both ways when it comes to getting more funding :/

Great Britain stunned the world with Brexit. The United States looked over to the left, then looked over to the right, nodded and said "I got this...hold my beer"

Not sure how true that line is, without you reporting the PM. Regardless, freedom of speech exists up to our Terms of Services and Forum Rules & Guidelines on our associated websites, including these forums.


I always like to refer to the xkcd comic when it comes to internet communities and free speech, it's number 1357, titled 'Free Speech'. :)
 
make moderators great again!

well, eee .... sorry to spoil it to you brits and muricans (there's other people in the universe in case you didn't know), but your circus elections are nothing really special. the whole world is going nuts and falling apart, haven't you heard?

now you know!
