"Racist, sexist, homophobic or other similar disparaging remarks used for nothing other that inflammatory comments do not have any place on the Second Age forums, including the Trash Talk forum."

Did you know in England and much of Europe, people are jailed for the same things? First it starts online and people get used to it, next thing you know legislation is being passed. Meanwhile the F word and "cracker" are permitted both on here, and in England. This rationale is illogical.

It's your right to censor on a privately owned forum, and I realize you don't want profanities indexed in the search engines although I find that excuse to be dishonest since so many other obscenities are permitted. If you're going to go down this road, at least be consistent and censor all profanity for the families and children. Also there are many reasonable alternatives such as filters and blocking features.

I have never supported a community that goes against the U.S. Constitution and never will. If I did, what right would I have to oppose someone who wanted to repeal the First Amendment?

Who are you to proclaim calling someone a F**king D***ass is ok, but G**boy is not?

For this reason, please stop threatening me with a ban (you know who you are) - I request for my forum account to be removed.

P.S. It isn't my intention to attack the administration, I sincerely appreciate all of the voluntary work you guys put in every day to provide us with an exceptional free shard and trust that it will remain era accurate and uncensored for years to come!

So do you want full 1st amendment rights to free speech no matter who it offends or are you gonna pick and choose which words are ok? As you stated we have enough of that already in this country.

We have none of that in this country if you referring to censorship and the U.S.A. If it was up to me I would want full freedom of speech with filter and block options, but this isn't my house or forum. Regardless, I despise censorship and especially when it is biased.

England's justice system has many differences from America's and the only reason America's judicial system is laughed at is because many laws are unconstitutional. The U.S. Constitution is nothing to laugh at.
