Well, apparently my post, as replied by Chris (chetzler, one of our resident
ragers) has been cancelled? Been out-of-town, but I did receive a wonderfully
confusing email from the TLG implemented "V for vendetta 'Fate' department"
containing the very overt threat of forum banning Nothing says free speech
and debate, more than the threat of complete censorship

Though, I did not get a chance to read chetzler's reply to my post, that
apparently nuked both of our posts... So I've idea why we were both nuked?
As to our post: it was entirely innocuous and in continuation of Jane Goodall's
memory

I’m not the cool customer that you are 😎.

You told me the other day—in your typical turgid fashion—that you find it is
“undeniably boring participating in the BL forum of today.” So why on Earth are
you still coming around here, Cory? Seriously, why? It is so baffling ! And
why is it you never seem to talk about anything that is even LEGO-adjacent in
this LEGO forum?

Now here you are for the umpteenth time: you say something you know will get
cancelled, the inevitable happens, then you storm back a few days later to play
the victim. It's pretty amusing that you attach the word "vendetta"
to TLG when you're the one who keeps showing up here with the same, tired
grievance. Go grind your ax some place else. As I am sure you are well aware,
private companies are not obligated to give you a platform for expression, no
matter how special you think your ideas are.

I'm sorry your reply was nuked in the process.

I feel confident if you would follow the spirit of our rules here, that you would
not find yourself in this situation. There are lots of LEGO and BrickLink things
to talk about so maybe you could dial it down a notch? However I didn't see
this particular post, I do think that our moderators are experienced, fair, and
competent.

Hows about we find some Catalog things to argue about and leave any politics
outside.

Take care,
~Jen

You're right of course, Jennifer...

That said, I will never conform to the EU enforced doctrine via their
EU rulings over private enterprise

And another post which will bite the dust; political - and stupid, but this isn't
forbidden (unfortunately).

As it'll be deleted, let me tell you I'm SUPER happy we've Laws that
protect customers from entrepreneurs.

And BTW, too bad we don't have a word for "entrepreneur" in French
