Look here!!! Censorship!!!

[smokinstarfish]

This site earasing anything they don't like in a real unfair way!
They don't allow private messaging to silence their customers and deletes anyone speaking out! This thread is going to disapear real quick! Sorry Mods, but you know it's wrong.

admin has removed PMing due to bandwidth issues
and we only edit or delete things that are blatant insults or attacks
OR violate the rules, which all of us have agreed to comply with, upon registering. ALL OF US, INCLUCING YOU AND ME

I know enough about computers to know this ain't no bandwidth issue. Text... come on. I can post as many pictures as I want here but I can't say hi to a single person through PMing. The admin knows that they cannot enforce their tight censorship rules as well in PMs.
What happened to the thread yesterday about not going to any other message board? People spoke up and the whole thread got erased, even the people who spoke in favour of saltwaterfish.com, including the tread-starter.
Don't get me wrong, I still like this board and will continue to participate responsibly.

Some are in print and others are online. Some are available in both formats. This particular one is online. Sorry, but we are not allowed to post a link to it on this web site. Terry B

I"ve never PM but its possible it could be a realtime format such as Instant Messenger, in which case anything realtime is a drain on a site. I can also tell you that the size of pictures has been drastically cut since i started almost a year ago. It used to be about half a meg for pics i think maybe higher and now its 100k.... I've also seen the board crash due to an overload on people trying to post back when they gave away u build it packages to the 100th post in a thread.
I think its just a matter of them protecting their site......Sorry man...

FREE CORAL PACKS!!!!! Man, I'd be posting like a *%$ (self censored) trying to get to the 100th post of EVERY thread!

which was the problem. It crashed the server and you couldn't get back on for a while.

I think what we have to remember, and all due respect to smokinstarfish, but we are GUESTS on this website's forum. They are gracious enough to let us use it, yes they get their advantages, but at the end of the day we are guests. If anyone doesnt like it they can move to another popular one.
You wouldnt go into someone's house and complain that they wont let you curse or put your feet on the table, its bad manners. But if you really wanted to put your feet on the table, you would go to someone elses house who would let you.
Every now again we get this kinda post, pretty frustrating. Its happened to me but i think we have to remember we are guests.
