W-what? The fact that this thread is here and there are opinions from both sides IS proof that this is an issue. A "mod" who comes and says "it's not a problem because I said so" doesn't make it any less of an issue. You then proceed to defend said mod and tell me to flesh out my argument (lol), while I've already made several posts explaining why I think obligatory profanity filtering is a bad idea.
And don't even get me started on that "free speech" thing. If you're not insterested in an argument regarding profanity filters, why do you even bother replying to my posts? Just to call me an asshole for having a different opinion? What does that make YOU?
Also, your little cute counting is irrelevant. This is not a place where we vote and fight as to who was right. On a side note, voice of the majority doesn't really matter - it's no secret that the majority is retarded. Only a sociologist would think otherwise.
Oh, and I don't think you know what an "insult" is.
I would like to see a better argument from you. So far, I haven't really seen anything convincing on your side. It might be more polite to say that the people who would be flaming are assholes than that you are being the asshole. I probably should've done that. I WILL, however, not retract my statement that calling someone's post a shitpost is pretty insulting.
Am I blindly defending a mod? Maybe. Are you blindly defending what you (IMO incorrectly) believe to be an infringement on free speech? Maybe. You know, they don't actually remove messages, and it does not actually change any of the meaning. It just makes it funnier and a little less toxic.
