Topic: Review censorship Posted: August 11 2006 at 11:55 |
The review guidelines clearly state -
4 - Write in an intelligent and considerate manner. Rude or insulting language (including blatant vulgarity) will not be tolerated!
Saying that Pink Floyd "suck" and the keyboards are "w**kery" is a clear infringement of the guidlines. Yes, I know they're not rules, but this review clearly deserved to be edited.

Fripp needs to get a tan on his face. He looks pale.

Did everyone know Fripp was a huge DT fan?

Ops, I was off (almost all the time) the last 2 days, sorry!
Just reminding that I erased the text (making sure it was saved), kept the rating and sent a message to the reviewer asking to edit his review.
OK, maybe he didn't receive the message (via e-mail) but even so he could come here and talk to us, just like dozens of reviewers did previously - we could have mistaken, we could have deleted erroneously, several other matters could have happened.
But since he's the "greatest", the "boss", the "quintessence of Creation" he thought he had the right to come here and tell how inferior and mediaeval people we are, etc, etc.
Well, considering the issue I prefer to be an old peasant than a modern arrogant dude.

The guy can't take a clue.
Let me put it in easy to understand language for you:
1) Your review was deleted because it was of no use. You went into no depth at all.
2) You were suspened because you can't control your misplaced anger and resort to childish name-calling and you degraded a site which you don't understand in any form or fashion and the respectable reviewers who contribute to it.
I'm glad you're gone, though I wish you were banned.
Go harass some other site with your reviews and attitude.

In my experience, it usually involves at least 3 spotty students, a whole load of multi-sided dice and a huge sheet of rules that no-one can work out, or if anyone does, no-one else ever agrees - although if it's my house, then I'm right.
It was just the once, and I didn't enjoy it, OK...

The important thing is not to stop questioning.

Just out of curiosity, Tony, have you ever played Dugeons & Dragons? I don't think I've even been in the same building as a game of D & D myself. |
Not unless it involves leather bondage and a bottle of tabasco sauce...

I like the little Joe's Garage reference, there, Mike.
