True but this forum has rules and guidelines that we all agree to upon joining. Break the rules be subjected to moderation. It is not a free for all forum. So calling out censorship is not really applicable here. There is a right to censor by those who own and run the forum
True! Itâs like throwing a party and then having a bunch of unruly guest repetitively going on and on about how the Earth is round. Iâm all for free speech, but I just wanted to have a pleasant party without that nonsense
Probably so they donât get caught assuming his gender.
yeah censorship is hardcore on this forum
I just donât like being called a troll. Sure I can get heated and bend/break the rules here from time to time, but I donât mean any harm. Just trying to influence the path the company takes. Iâm very pleased they fixed the reversed polarity on the DTâs main outputs for example, and a few members here flamed me on that because âwho hears reversed polarity anywayâ - so maybe my yawing had nothing to do with it. Maybe it did. I thought Electronâs unveiling of the Digitone was a bit ahem tone-deaf from a marketing perspective so was vocal on that thread. But so was putting DT in a plastic case at NAMM a year back. When the emperor has no clothes, somebody needs to say it.
Hereâs the thing about âcensorshipâ on this particular forum. The vast majority of the so called censorship is coming from the actual community, which is how this board is set up. Not the mods, not elektron.
So maybe if you feel censored, this is not the community for you. Itâs kinda like hanging with the Amish and getting mad every time an Amish person tells you âno cellphonesâ. The rules and guidelines of the forum were laid out and needed to be agreed upon to join. If one does not find participation in this forum to their liking no one is making anyone stay.
nah, in many cases it is indeed coming from the mods. the moderation on here is indeed very biased and actively steering things instead of just enforcing forum guidelines, and that is something that âmoderationâ by definition shouldnât do.
So the mods are going around flagging everyoneâs post till they get hidden? Do you really believe that?
This thread is a magnet for trolls; didnât you know?
did i say that? i donât think so.
This is like a twilight zone Valentineâs Day Elektronauts specialâŚ
Thereâs a censorship thread and people are flagging and getting other posts hidden within it, and flagging is happening all over the boardâŚ
I donât know what the funk is goin on, shits cra cra up in hereâŚ
I should probably go do something in the real worldâŚ
Lol are we gonna split hairs. You said the censorship is coming from the mods. In response to me saying it came from the community. How does the community mod? Flagging post so they get hidden.
yes, very generally with their activity on here, not talking about âflaggingâ in particular, which I am not really sure if mods can do at all. i am not splitting hairs, you are putting words in my mouth.
You quoted me out of context to try to make a point. So donât misuse my words. Because I was referring to flagging
yes, i understood you and i was saying i donât share the perception that the âvast majorityâ of modding or âcensorshipâ on here happens through user flags. i think you are splitting hairs now.
Careful yâall, just because weâre not getting Overbridge doesnât mean we should start burning OURverBRIDGEs(of our hearts)
Be mad at Elektron
Flag you all.
incoming THREAD LOCKED
I love that this one Announcement has led to three cancerous threads and an Elektronauts civil war.
As much as I love togetherness , I also have a heart of mischief
Rubbing hands together.
Tehehe (evil impish laugh)
