A Discussion Regarding Censorship I have always noticed it in the past, but it hasn't bothered me up until now. You all have probably seen it before in the site talk section. Someone asks a question regarding the site/moderating, a moderator will answer, and promptly lock the thread. This is the usual question-and-response routine. But what I am here to discuss is a slightly more serious version of this situation. Whenever a user questions/criticizes a moderator or rule, it begins to happen. People will express their views, whether positive or negative, passively or strongly, etc. Then, as soon as negative comments are made towards the moderation team, comments get deleted, and the thread gets locked. You may ask why, but the answer is simp
Im Disappointed I apologize, but this will be my last thread regarding this topic. I just have to say this: I'm disappointed. I spoke out passionately and respectfully, and I didn't receive the same. I was shut out as if my feelings were invalid. And my only option was to send a ticket, which in a year, I may or may not receive a response. You may move on now, for I am nothing.
Basilmarket Signatures Question How "signature-y" does someone's signature have to be until you get suspended? Shall I talk in a riddle-manner, suspend-able would it quite be? Por3 gramma? Talk Like This All The Time? If SparkShooter talks in third person? Basilmarket (players and moderators), please enlighten me :p.
Another Basilmarket Censorship Issue Yes, it's a discussion about the legalization of same sex marriage...again. Sorry. These two threads were locked, due to its inappropriate and flame bait topic. I disagree completely with the moderator who closed it. This is completely unjust, and I have to speak out. I don't care whether this thread changes anything, because voicing what you believe is right always makes a difference. For something that was legalized nationwide today, locking a thread on a related subject is a complete slap in the face to the decision of US Supreme Court. This discussion is well within the rules of Basilmarket. Locking something so that you don't have to deal with flamers is cowardly, and lazy. Just because something is
BasilVersary Question Help I know I didn't get it first, but I have a quick question. If you ARE the first one to get it right, how will you know if you are the first person indeed?
Can You Change Your Basil ID Just wondering. It'snot that I hate my current ID, but I have a better one I want to use :p.
The Power To Remove Comments Dear Mr. Basil, Users should be able to remove comments from their listing. It is their listing and it's a business. One useful purpose may be that the comments have already served their purpose, thy are past customers and their posts are just clutter now. But a second reason that I find useful is for non-customers. I'm perfectly fine with people negotiating prices or confused about processes. But I really do not want people to start discussing my morals or things related to their own possible businesses. Two people already posted in my listing that they will steal my idea, which is not only annoying, but it may ward off my own possible customers. I couldn't care less if they make their own listing, but they do
Freaky Google Search Ok...just go to Google Images, and type in your BasilID + Maplestory You'll find tons of avatars of each and every single person you ever quoted on this site... You can even click the picture, and read the thread it leads you to, and find your post. I'm not sure if this is freaky or not, but this scared me...
That Funny Moment When ...someone makes a thread, thinks their argument is so clever, gets attacked, and then their thread is removed. Post your Basilmarket moment below.
