Manloaf,
I'm sorry you feel that way! But this is a Steven Seagal web site!
We are here to discuss Steven Seagal!! "Off Topic" is open for you or anyone to discuss just about anything, other stars, other movies, other music, if that is your wish!
Every member is entitled to his/her opinion but it should be voiced as an opinion and not to belittle or berate Steven Seagal or another member! That is not what this board was created for!
The only thing that we demand is that this board be kept as clean as possible! We will not tolerate another SSMB!
Discussions are fine and encouraged but arguments are not!
We try very hard to only delete a post when it is absolutely necessary. We only lock-out a thread when it becomes evident that a situation is getting worse and not better!
God bless,
Mama san

I am aware of where I am and I understand the rules and your position on this board. I'm not defending argumentative posting nor am I challenging you to defend your actions on this board. I was merely stating some things that I noticed on this board. I thought that this was as good-a-place as any to state my opinions (seeing as how the topic was free speech and all).
Like all 'Free Speech', however, it's only accepted when in accordance to the majority.

Free speech isn't determined by how many people agree with you. That's what makes it good. The whole world can be againsn't you, but you can still say whatever you choose too. Why let the majority control your thoughts? That's what this board wants to do, and that's not acceptable.

I decided to join this site because of my appreciation for Steven Seagal.I dont think of myself as a rabid Seagal fan, just someone who was looking for people who I could associate with and share my feelings. I believe that this is what this site is about. I never thought the music section was about anything but Steven because this is a Steven Seagal site. At the moment this is all good fun and thats why I love it here. There are plenty of music sites and movie sites, more than there are SS sites. So just chill out and enjoy this site for what it is. And stop whingeing as we say here in Oz.
Peace and Love
Mandy

I think you missed the point of my statement. The emphasis was on 'accepted'.
Your previous post, for example, was deleted because it was seen (by the majority or the authority which in this case is the majority) as too negative. In my opinion though, it was just in retaliation to a negative comment expressed toward you. However, your freedom to reply to the comment was denied.
Mama San, I took no offence to your post, I was simply stating my opinions.

"Tommy",
Free speech is for everyone! But one would not yell "fire!" in a crowded room, if there were no fire. Nor does one make derogatory remarks and/or threats aginst their fellow members of this board! It has been done here but it will not be tolerated!
If the moderators find it necessary to delete a post then it will be deleted! If the moderators find it necessary to edit a post then it will be edited! If a thread is causing too many "problems' then it will either be locked-out or deleted!
Those who abide by the rules are most welcome here! Those who do not wish to abide by those rules can expect to be edited or deleted, as the case may be.
Conflicts and abuse are what we are trying very hard to avoid!
God bless,
Mama san

Tommy,
You are correct! You can post when you want! But, again, if you do not abide by the rules of this board, then you will be edited or deleted! How ever many times you may wish to return is entirely up to you. At any time, under any name, you are welcome to post
here but only if your posts are not abusive or derogatory against Steven Seagal or other members of this board!
I cannot state it any plainer than that! It's up to you!
God bless,
Mama san

I can post "what" I want as well... Get that through your head. I can't state it any plainer than that... It's up to you to realize that much like before, you can't win this battle. Let people post what they want, and I'd never have a bad thing to say. If you think about it, you should see the logic there. If not, then oh well.
