Censorship on this site, v2
@Sparkshooter has a great thread over [url=http://www.basilmarket.com/forum/2854926/0/A_Discussion_Regarding_Censorship.html]here[/url]. It's too bad it was locked before anyone could get a word in edgewise.
The people want the freedom to be able to discuss this without the threads being locked.
In my opinion, it's only right that we should be able to discuss this amongst each other.
Transparency, as well as being open and honest with the users of this site is a necessity, otherwise users will quickly flock to another site that has popped up that is similar to basil. Yet the owner of this site (not basil) is kind, open, and honest and doesn't hide behind a veil of unresponsive, uncaring, silence.

I left this thread open for three pages and this happened:
[*]Mods are called Nazis (Rule 1)
[*]Advertisement of other sites (Rule 5)
[*]Spamming other threads (Rule 2)
Please submit a ticket in the future.

Funny how a few of such sites are censored on this one, though.
[quote=AbsymalTorment]As a human right, we have the right to protest. Our right is being taken away, therefore its illegal for someone to do that. No matter if they own the site or not, Site abides by American law? Abide by the human rights in America.

Oh please share these other sites with us. Its like the President saying, "if you don't like the laws here, you can move to a different country." Doesn't work like that.

I've been a member on this site since 2008 and have never made a thread to directly complain about how it's being run.
That in and of itself should say something about how poorly the state of this site is being handled.

This. As I stated earlier there are other forums out there. One specifically made with a layout directly like basil's but with a lot more reasonable rules.
they need to know we are the money and income for this site owner. if we are pissed and stop using this site, we can show them who is the real boss.
Well, if everyone is on the same boat including trolls choosing not to troll in this specific thread and be civilized people, I don't see the problem. This is an issue that needs to be addressed. The people have spoken.
[quote=SANbounty]They can keep locking or deleting threads. People will continue to post them because they feel they are being treated wrongfully.[/quote]

Southperry is one. Eos is very approachable, for the most part.
I was more so talking about a site that is censored on basil, and if I say it I'll probably get banned (and it's not regarding the FM site).
