It's clearly stated in the FAQ's.

Wha??? We don't have free speech at the ledge? My internet home away from home? Where we all can say what we feel?

The fat lady is singing now...

What do you mean? I've been relatively passive-agressive-ish lately. I'm genuinely pissed off about things. I didn't think it would be wise of me to start several threads about it. If things get bad, I'll leave again like I did earlier in the summer. I do enough whining as it is, why are you practically beseeching me to do more?

Every situation is different. Asking is fine, demanding is another thing all together. Do you see where I'm going with this?

I'm not. I was genuinely asking you what your concerns are.

Nothin' like a good 80s flashback. Anyway, Steve did say that. We've been referred to the FAQs often enough and they do restrict our speech. But I'm not against all of that because in some cases it means not defaming people on the basis of race, sexual orientation, etc. I would probably disapprove if we had free speech all the way, honestly.

Well, I do appreciate that, but at this point, I wouldn't know where to begin. Before I get huffy and too drama queenish and say "Well, I'm leaving," I'm going to wait and see; maybe things will get better. I love this place very much.

Too late. This place has been nothing but sheer drama the past few days.

Yea, that is true...I didn't think about that.

Sometimes we all need a break from the things we love.

You should have been here in July if you think this is like reverting back to high school. But I won't go any further with that.
