Censorship
 

yes here in this forum, bad idea

Re: Censorship
 

Where? Please prove your accusations. I am against censorship.

Morgwen

it's the third time i mention a thread being deleted, no not closed or moved. I guess this happens more often when it happens a few times.

Yeah I hate censorship too

Yea, and that's why it's getting so booooooring here and why people don't come back much anymore.
By the way, I started a thread about how booring it's getting here and it got deleted, so you people in charge better start taking away "powers" from those who can't control themselves.
Deleting a thread should take more than one person. The way it is now no one knows about it if the deleting maniac hits the key fast enough.
Power corrupts.

Sad you find them boring. :(

Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't. I believe in the autonomy of each mod, all of them are trustable.

Now that's a strong accusation. It's just your opinion.

one single person censoring a thread *IS* dangerous in my eyes. Mods can still comment, close or move threads. doesnt matter if someone could be trusted or not, censorhsip is censorship. And it's is bad.

Give me more infos.

If you are talking about a Xolox thread... this was an accident by one of our mods.

Yes, I agree.

Morgwen

I know I checked the IPs...


As a mod I can post even in closed threads, there is no need to open it...

No, its not the first time I heard it, but I WANT PROVES... your are whining about a thread where you and Peerless started to make trouble and we edited it. Next time I will delete your comments and don´t dicuss two weeks about it. We have simple rules here, NOBODY IS ALLOWED TO ATTACK OTHER USERS. If you think you are something special you should search for an other board where the mods think your insults are the best what could happen...

Btw I moved the thread to the trashcan, yes I know you will call it now censorship... so start your whining about it, for me the discussion is OVER.

Do not cross the line...

Morgwen

all? and what happened to the deleted threads?

DO NOT CROSS THE LINE!!!!!!!

ok, why don't you define a line in detail so we can know what not to cross.

seems to me anything against this board or a mod who has a quick delete finger is "crossing".

you think you can define something in detail? you think the mods here can follow that rule? how can we check up on mods who delete/edit all the time? how do we know a thread got deleted if it's gone? how can YOU know? are you sure?

do you have a plan to add some excitement here if you stop all our fun with your silly rules?

boorrrring!

ITS VERY SIMPLE DO NOT INSULT OTHERS AND DO NOT SPAM!!!

These are the basic rules, I think its not very hard to understand...

Yes of course I am the mod who is known as MR. CENSORSHIP!!! :rolleyes:

You don´t need to check anything here, we have enough mods who watch for this...

Normally we MOVE the threads to the trashcan and delete them later...

I don´t know which silly rules you mean??? If you think its OK to insult other users its better for you to search for an other board.

FLAMING IS NO FUN!!!

If you think this is boring here go to bearshare.net the people fight there every day (I think I suggested this to you some time ago...), we are a boring BUT FRIENDLY forum...

Morgwen

compared to bearshare.net everything is friendly :)
and Morgwen you are not a bad mod!

Not all the mods agree with your rules and delete for many reasons, mostly emotional.
See this
http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...threadid=15419

Then tell me someone applied your rules before closing and now removing a thread?

And how does a thread about how boring its become here get deleted when your rules were not violated?

Very few things should get deleted or closed and things should be allowed to run their course. Plus it's fun to watch how it turns out.

Mr. Unregistered before you claim such things do some investigation...

bpmax is whining for several days now that we move and delete his "very helpfull" threads - the truth is that he and his friend Peerless made trouble - ALL mods agreed to the actions against him.

There is also a good reason for this, I explained this to the thread starter.

Every forum has his rules and delete threads, the easiest way to avoid it is to follow the rules!!!

No, its no fun to watch mature people acting like three year old kids and flame at each other, if you have fun in such stuff VISIT BEARSHARE.NET!

Over and out.

Morgwen

:confused:

I can leave off you... but look here the people are referring to your and bpmax´s accusations against us... what do you expect now? Should I say he is right and you are a polite guy? Perhaps you can tell him to drop this discussion?

Its funny you are mature enough to flame other people but you aren´t mature enough that you can live with critic...

MY LAST REPLY TO THIS DISCUSSION!!!

Morgwen

Hehehe, Morg never knew you could disrupt American college funds !

And for you bpmax, with posts like this you make a fool of yourself, stop whining about money, and if you can afford to pay several grand to education, that means, you pulled a lot more out of the society you live in, I see it as your duty to give some back, witout whining on how to spend it.

I am new to this forum and I will not be back. I happen to know of Peerless and bpmax from other forums. And I happen to think very highly of both of them.

BTW... Moderators please ban me.

Hey bpmax, you have the "gift" to draw strange conclusions from my words .

As for the whole college issue.. Since im a college student myself typing this in my dorm room right now i agree that if i was to donate money i would want to go to education because thats what i donated the money for.

But this is a ligitimate issue and which does affect all p2p programs especially gnutella users who were regular loyal and good gnutella users before all of a suddent are cut off. That is not good for a decentralized network like gnutella.. So i dont think that the should have been deleted, maybe clsoed or even split out the insulting into a seperate thread and close that, but this isnt the only P2P forum on the internet and this isnt the only gnutella forum on the internet either.

Anyways what im shocked is the lack of options that students have.. For alot of things. I and i think many other students would be happy just to have a different choice for internet, I think students would be able pay extra for unblocked service to add on to the current costs which is included in rent. Or why dont universities coorporate with or take bids from cable/phone companies to offer students dsl or cable internet connection for the smester?

It wouldnt be that hard to do and really it benifits everyone.. The univerisity could use the extra fees for more bandwidth to support it or even get commission from the phone/cable companies for people who use that on campus which wouldnt use any lan bandwidth. Students would get what they want and they get a alternative when now they really dont have any.

Bpmax I said what I think in the last PM, I have nothing to add in public.

Morgwen

i have been to many college campus's and have never used a system that was bogged down enough to disrupt learning. sure there are some that were slower than others, but not due 100% to filesharing. In fact I know of one college in particular that set up a section of its network just to let student share files over its LAN.

bpmax, I do think it is funny (but perhaps the word silly would have been a better choise) that if a German posts on a P2P forum, a American then reconciders his donations to AMERICAN education.

Sure, like i say what i am most shocked about is the lack of options that students really have.. Hopefully it will be successful and take off elsewheres like the university of florida. If students want to use file sharing programs, and use up more bandwidth and etc. then they can pay to do so. You could also do what dsl providers do and put download/upload caps and have different price plans. The more flexible it is the better it would be that way the more bandwidth a person wants the more they can pay for it.

Iamnacho bandwidth over lan isnt used nearly as much as internet bandwidth.. Plus i think that those people would rather be able to use file sharing programs on the internet and not the lan too..

In terms of how much is used as a percentage of the total available. Also, a university generally pays nothing for LAN bandwidth used but the Internet connection is the expensive part.

Doesn't take much to keep you going........:D

Weren't you and Peerless those who attached all those little gifs to your posts? :rolleyes:

Be cool :)

please moderators don't delete my new post immediately again. let Kayaman a chance to respond. Thanks for your patience!

p2pchat down? http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...threadid=15770

this became a famous thread. :-) Unregistered aren't thaaaaaat bad. :-)

bpmax,

are the smilies free to copy? I mean is Cylocide allowed to upload them on his server? Perhaps I can persuade him. :)

Morgwen

Yes but I don´t think that this is a big problem, this are so small and sweet smilies I think its worth. :)

Morgwen

I PMed him but he have to talk with the admi of the other side first, he ask for a link to his side:

Copyright Notice:
1.) I own the copyright to all the smileys in the cwm's smilies section of this page.
2.) If you wish to use those smileys on your website you must ask permission (i will ask you to put a link to my site somewhere we can agree on so as to give credit where it is due) You don't need to ask permission to just post the smileys on your favorite board

Morgwen

I know,

I can "see" your links. ;)

Morgwen

Hmm...

I see them... :confused:

Sometimes its fun to have some off topic discussions, as long they are only "some", the last topic was different there were more off topic posts than on topic, I think we can leave it... :)

Morgwen

:confused:

That is really strange...

I currently use also 98se and IE6. Is your system up to date?

Morgwen

You should update your system, I have done it a few days ago.

Did you change your security level? Try to lower it, right click on the IE icon/options/security. If this doesn´t help I have no idea...

Morgwen

I haven't been censored with my last thread, thanks !

Hey, nobody will censor you just because it's you ;)
