Hey all,
Interesting to read the discussions here. Thought I'd clear a couple of things up
Q: Does this mean Frontier is now censoring all negative feedback?
A: Nope! You can still share constructive negative feedback just as everyone has always been able to.
Q: My brother's roommate's pen-pal's cousin got banned for sharing perfectly reasonable comments!
A: If action is taken against a post there will have been reasonable grounds for that. As always though anyone who thinks incorrect actions were taken can appeal via the 'Appealing a Moderation Action' section of the rules.
Q: I disagreed with a Moderator decision and my post was removed! CENSORSHIP!!
A: It's against the rules to contest moderator decisions on the forums because it disrupts the discussion and doesn't help in dealing with the issue. If you don't agree with a Mod decision either use the 'Appealing a Moderation Action' process in the forum rules or you can report their post if you believe it to be against the rules.
This new statement doesn't actually change what you can and cannot post on the forums. You can still be critical, you can still say you aren't happy, but if someone believes the only way they can do that is to make personal attacks then they simply aren't welcome on the forums.
