youre very right about that.

but:

asking the same question until youre told it wont/cant be answered and getting banned for continuing to repeat it, despite of being told not to, isnt being censored. its dealing with spam

same applies for rudness/caps abuse. you can ask nicely and according to the rules of the stream and i doubt youd get banned, unless of course you spam the same question over and over again. i was told that was what happened a couple of times

on the other hand i could be totally wrong and relic might well be as "draconian" as some people want us to believe
well, were fucked then, arent we?

dammit Voort! I had the link copied and everything! Just took me a while to find it on XKCD.

But seriously, yes, only the government can suppress your free speech/ do some kind of censorship. If you behave like an asshole while at my home, and I tell you to shut up or gtfo, that isn't censorship.
