Censorship on NS

Whats going on with TGR? I usually only lurk the BST and Gear talk forums.

I was following Chups kids bike scam thing for a while. That was entertaining.

Bunch of drama in the padded room about a couple of posters, and everyone is bitching amongst themselves like a bunch of bitches. Mtngirl got banned after she created a thread asking for all of the maggots to post up pictures of their cocks. Some dude named deepsouthmafia is creating a bunch of useless threads and since there is no moderation nothing has been done to stop him.

I think the lack of snowfall is making everyone go crazy

I was running a pretty funny alias for a while but got banned after just a few posts. Started up another and got banned after a couple posts.

It wasn’t offensive or insulting or anything and was all in good fun. I thought that was pretty lame.

I mostly just post on TGR now. They have a way more active community that is way more involved with big mountain skiing. Plus absolutely no moderation over there. Unfortunately TGR is going through a bunch of drama right now too.

NS is dying

Making aliases has been against the rules for a long time. If you're truly a good alias, no one knows you're an alias, sounds like you were a bad alias.

If an alias is funny, we let it go, there are plenty. You're just not funny, sorry.

You have no idea whether or not the alias in question was funny or what it even was.

What is truly unfunny is the unnecessary moderation of this forum, that results with the place feeling like a nanny state. No wonder TGR gets 5x the traffic

You have been misinformed.
 
Well, i have a friend who recently made a number of threads and accounts concerning muslims and how they are all bad, they were removed within a minute and the account was banned each time, thoughts on this? Not saying I agree with him at all, but should he have the right to say it?

You don't have rights on the internet.

He can say whatever he wants, just not on somebody else's website.

Made shitty thread, threads were removed, kept making shitty threads, finally got a temp ban. Seems pretty sensible.
 
Its simple, dont be racist or hateful to anyone and you should be fine. I have made my fair share of pointless threads and in the 13ish years I have been on this site, I have not once been temp banned or repremanded in any way. I have had a couple replies modified because I shared too much personal information about somebody (which I agreed with the change) or back in the day I said the holy name Steep and Cheap in its entirety.

What do you want social to be like?

We should probably make a thread on that topic.. there were a few posts in PWOYM about the social media.. I'll try to find em.

People were saying how you're tagging other people just for followers, stories are linked to old threads, threads that aren't that great, etc. I know a few people were also mad about you saying "New Wave" on social because then it kinda makes it the name when someone big says it. IDK

I like raw footage the best. But then again more thug is good too

My fear is that NS social media is gonna turn into what redbulls and gopros social media turned into. It was pretty cool in the beginning, a lot of people doing gnarly things. But nowadays there's still plenty of gnarly stuff (especially on redbulls account) but there's also a lot of becky cruising around on her paddleboard. It feels like they lost a lot of their soul, which I'm sure works out better for them financially.

fair, I wanted people's take on it, he's rattled about it

Wait, you mean to tell me your racist, bigoted friend is a giant fucking pussy that gets "rattled" when his shitty threads get deleted?

For a while I thought scumbag racists and bigots were rational, upstanding folk with zero insecurities... hmm

Really though, your friend can go fuck himself with a cactus. Why are you friends with him? People like him do not deserve any friends unless he wants to join the KKK or Hitler's Fan Club.

No its not. You're just as insecure so you're trying to play down the fact that your buddies with a horrible person that doesn't deserve a place in society.

Lolz eheath making a case against net neutrality? Nice

I'm not sure how my statement has anything to do with net neutrality, you 100% do not have rights online, there are no rules (hopefully it stays that way). Make a blog and you can post whatever you want, you can be racist, sexist, homophobic, hateful in anyway you want. We have rules on NS and if you don't follow them, we'll ban you, delete your posts, we can do whatever we want. Members accept a user agreement when they join, maybe you should go back and read it.

I was just kidding, I've never had anything deleted except for dumb threads that got deleted just because a mod didn't see it as being thread worthy. That's the only thing I don't like

I've only had something deleted twice, when me and skierman got into a roasting match and when I fuckin exposed Dennis Reynolds. Fun times
