Re: POL:Make Spearboard Great Again
I think there is a big difference between free speech and "internet forum free speech". In face to face interaction people often police themselves for a variety of different reasons ranging from just being a respectful person to not wanting to be percieved as a bad person by others and thus gain a bad reputation. The relative anonymity of internet forums allows certain individuals to behave poorly without fear of reprove. So internet forums, just like kindergarten classrooms, sometimes need a little moderation.
I am with Moose on this one. |

Re: POL:Make Spearboard Great Again
Ok, I will break my own rule for clarification. I left out the option for moderation on purpose. Moderation has other problems that are outside of the poll.
What "great mind" do you put in charge of the moderating? Bill Mac, 2fishin2 or El_Mero28. There will be endless arguing about the "great mind". So, Free Speech with moderation IS considered a vote FOR Censorship. Comments go over to the PR thread. |

Re: POL:Make Spearboard Great Again
What is the function of this thread? The moderators and owners don't care for your opinion and you have no say in their choices. Youre acting like you are the victim of some persucution here that does not exist. This is a spearfishing forum you're trying to use as a platform to whine on.
Get over yourselves. Bitch all you want in the PR section this shit has no place in the general discussion page, this is off topic at best and embarassing. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk |

Re: POL:Make Spearboard Great Again
The guy who (apparently) wants free reign to post anything, now wants to dictate what can and can not be posted in his little thread. Ironic if not ridiculous.
The forum has a pretty well defined terms of service which explicitly PROHIBIT free speech. You can't post porno, overtly racist stuff and engage in personal attacks. This type of prohibited material has been determined to be destructive and/or inconsistent with the management's priorities and would probably be inconsistent with the wishes of most, if not all sponsors (who actually pay for this forum). In my mind there is too much name calling and over the top attacks and more moderation, rather than less, is often warranted. Regardless of whether your personal opinion is that there should be more moderation, (or less), the option of having NO MODERATION is irrelevant and impractical. It took me a while to figure the intent out, but this poll seems to be directed toward people voting for moderation or a complete free for all. I don't see that value in this poll at all, maybe that is the point - I'm so confused?

Re: POL:Make Spearboard Great Again
Why I use social media for most of my spearfishing interactions. Also why I'm glad to have a block button.90% of the people I grew up with here are there, with a lot less drama.Sad cause this was where a lot of us first met .

Re: POL:Make Spearboard Great Again
My vote: shoot fish and post about it, or post about spearfishing related topics.

Oh wait that's everywhere you turn on the internet and tv. I on the other hand would like to whine about the wind that won't stop and when it does won't sync with my work and family schedule so that I can go spearfishing. But it will work eventually and then I'll be here checking and posting viz reports and a video or two because that stuff is fun! Bitching all the time just makes you pissed off and requires you to bitch some more. |
