+Gary7 Subscriber² Posted February 13, 2009 Subscriber² Share Posted February 13, 2009 If any of you people know how, can you please terminate my subscription. I would not want anyone to know that I am supporting in any way a Forum that uses censorship against a certain group or discrimination! Please do this ASAP.

I would not want anyone to know that I am supporting in any way a Forum that uses censorship against a certain group or discrimination! Please do this ASAP. Thank you, Gary7 I'm interested in hearing the specifics, if you don't mind. This is an interesting case, seeing you've got about 13,000 posts, so you've seen plenty around here. I've experienced a bit of this "censorship" myself lately. Note that even if you do nothing wrong, but generate a lot of reports (even if they are uncalled for), you'll get a warning because you create more work for the mods. LOL. It's true.

+Gary7 Subscriber² Posted February 13, 2009 Author Subscriber² Share Posted February 13, 2009 No posting a pointless pic in this pointless thread. It is not pointless. I want my subscription terminated. Is that hard for you people to follow? I am tired of supporting a Forum that uses censorship. I just want to become a regular type member. If you cannot do that then do not respond to this thread. I do not want my money back I just want the orange gone and the badge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lezard Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Gary is probably mad, about the Barack Brobama pics thread on the Joke/Funny Section. I'm also ****ed at the way this kid censored what he had no right to censor. Political Satire is not offensive, and if it is to anyone, I suggest you get a proper education. Political Correctness is why this country is now full of whimps and wussies... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LTD Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 No posting a pointless pic in this pointless thread. Something is obviously on his mind and it has to do with this site. It most certainly isn't pointless. His complaint(s) could one day be YOUR complaints, if not already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infusion- Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 They won't. They won't even delete a standard account. Your only option is to stop visiting. Have to keep their membership numbers inflated somehow. Hell, my warning level went from 20% to 60% in one evening, for insulting someone I perceived was defending a man who beats a woman, and another for trying to tell me the proper Islamic way of beating a woman. Much like I've heard around the web elsewhere, the mods on this site are simply out of control. When not trolling themselves, they hand out warnings for behavior that most of them engage in as well.

Infusion- Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?show...#entry590570412 You know what's funny? I sent a PM to Fred asking about that specific thread, it gets locked, then all of a sudden I get a warning from John S. in my inbox when I wake up. Coincidence?

I do not want my money back I just want the orange gone and the badge. I don't know what happened, and don't really care... if you are that upset over something that happened, and don't want to support Neowin, then just leave. Subscriber or not, by continuing to be a member here you continue to support the site. This thread is stupid and should have been dealt with in a PM to an admin.

Shaun N. Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 (edited) I also thought some of them were funny. I however don't see how this is true. The election is over and these images are only funny if you hate Obama. I found them funny and don't hate Obama.

DDStriker Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 i don't get it, it says the image has been moved or deleted then it has photobucket written underneath it wouldn't it be photobucket censoring you? (not sure how exactly it works i havn't uploaded an image here yet :laugh:) http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b243/TK-1913/Nobama.jpg the link hasn't been altered its just been taken off photobucket and last i checked neowin doesn't own photobucket?
