    No, that is a blatant rule violation. Just like the Rubes posting Oden dick picks. There is no room for that here, especially when we are the "Official Blazer forum"

    I'm not a fan of rules. If we can have a photograph called "Piss Christ", we certainly can have one called "Shit Pinwheel".

    Again, all the poster does is diminish themself with such a post.

    A photograph is speech.

    Yeah I guess it doesn't matter if the Blazers say "Sorry guys but you can't be official now because you allow Oden Dick Picts on threads"

    If you are talking freedom of speech then you should have been more specific. And even freedom of speech has limitations. Per the forum rules one of those limitations is posting images that can get people in trouble at work.

    Being "official" doesn't mean much to me.

    Next time, I'll bring in our General Counsel before I post. Also, if you're surfing at work and could get into trouble in the first place, why do you have photos on? You can turn them off. I suggest you do so.

    Dude my point is that you were bitching at Nate for banning and your argument was that he shouldn't have. Sounds like you want your argument to be that the rules are too strict. Seriously get your head out of the sand so you can understand what you mean the clearer you are the easier you can achieve your goal.

    No need to get condescending

    Thanks for the link, pumpkin. That was sweet. However, I know damn well the difference between constitutional free speech and my rights on a private board. But you keep it up. It's working for you!

    One of those limitations is that it only prohibits the GOVERNMENT from banning certain types of speech.

    A private entity, such as an internet message board that is not governmental or quasi-governmental, may restrict communication as much as they please. Those in charge of a board may want to do so when certain posters post nothing but lewd or disgusting photos and do not add to the discourse in any meaningful way.

    Absolutely, the moderators here have every right to ban anything or anyone they wish. My point is that they shouldn't.

    I agree with Maxiep. Freedom is whatever the fringes are allowed to do, not what the conformists are allowed to do.

    No, your point is that the rules should be less strict. Per the rules they should ban.

    Guys guys guys, don't jump on Maxiep if he wants to be "captain save-a-hoe" it's his God given right. Who knows, maybe they will let him in the spurs forum?

    Per the law, I should be issued a ticket when I jaywalk.

    What's your point?

    That you are being despicably ignorant and that before going off on a tangent you should probably know what it is that you are arguing...
