When I had "MutIny" at the end of my post, I was obnoxiously correcting your spelling, not advocating mutiny.
Anyway, some people seem to feel that any criticism of the board's administration is treasonous, and that people who disagree with any aspect of the running of the board should either shut up or leave?
Or do I mean Administration and country? Does this mean I am blond and suddenly can carry a tune, at least a country tune?
No, I'm not asserting a First Amendment right to free speech, yes, I know that the board is not a governmental actor, and that it can ban or whatever anyone it wants because it is a private entity. It's more of an attitude thing.
I don't really care that much, I just thought the tone of taking the moral high ground that admins are above sharing inside info was a nice juxtaposition to the taunting Not Me with same.

Hey, it wouldn't be Friday without a good bitching-fest, would it?
Anyway, this is the last thing I'll say on the issue.
First, as I indicated, I was not taunting anyone with inside information. I was merely restating what has been stated publicly by many, many people - that lots of people claim to be ignoring not_me.
Second, just like you want an environment free of censorship, so do the admins. We're not going to constrain our speech because someone thinks it's obnoxious. You can't have it both ways. The only thing that constrains anyone's speech on this board is the TOS and the privacy policy.
Which leads to... Third, if you think any mod or admin is violating the TOS or the Privacy Policy, then please, please bring it to the attention of another admin. There are links to the privacy policy and TOS on the left hand side of each page. Feel free to make yourself familiar with what each says.
