    Military Veteran

    I am a military veteran who knows of people being banned on the forums for freedom of speech. I am not at liberty to say who. Freedom of press (cough) I wanted to make everyone aware of which im sure they are, they will get banned for the smallest things. If someone argues a solid point they will become banned even faster. I apologize for taking up your time on reading this I am venting the NAZISM.

    What has our military careers got to do with anything?

    I'm also a military vet.

    I was banned from here but that was own fault. As some folk know, i'm not the most "on topic" kind of person and have been known to mock people on occasion.

    I highly doubt it has anything to do with the amount of time I spent in the British Army.

    Also, there is no freedom of speech on a forum. Forum owners set the rules and you either abide by them or get booted off them ....

    I find that if you are eloquent you have a less chance of ban or infraction as their capacity to simply understand what you wrote is limited.

    LOL

    Ikr? I'm thinking this is the exact same person that complained a little bit ago. The grammar skills are roughly the same and the repeated implied relationship to Nazis screams alt account. Nothing here folks, please move along to more constructive threads.

    P.S. Thank you all true military veterans and those currently in the military for your service, you guys and gals are awesome.

    Vet here also.



    Being banned hereabouts have nothing to do with free speech rights, think of the T.O.S. as a S.O.F.A.

    If you're really a veteran it's a bit sad and pathetic that you don't have the slightest clue about the actual freedoms you may have fought to protect. The First Amendment provides limited protection from government incursion against speech and expression. Private parties are free to control and restrict speech and expression in their own private venues such as a game forum. It's been that way since day one of the adoption of the United States Constitution and the Bill of Rights within it.

    Comparing it with Nazism is idiotic and a slap in the face to any veteran who fought against the Nazis in Word War II and a disgusting insult to those victimized by the Nazis.
