While I love our Constitution, the Magna Carta and any document that protects rights, I feel compelled to point out to everyone that none of these sites are about free speech. They're owned and operated by others who call the shots, and when we join these sites, like this one, we agree to a set of rules. If the rules constrict, or if you, like me, experienced what can happen when a supermod decides they want to target you, then you, like me, move on to another site. Drama is part and parcel of the internet, period, it's not unique to cannabis fora, IME.
Good reply, see you there :p
I am still curious why we have this area of the forum tho !
Because after Gypsy Nirvana's bust there was a huge amount of fallout and a subsequent mass exodus from ICM, as KEG mentions above.
This is why our own site admin doesn't allow moderators keys to all the rooms, so to speak. We cannot, for example, see your IP addresses. We cannot get into your account to see your PMs, or even who you're PMing with. We can't change your signature, your avatar, none of that shit. It makes moderating problem children more difficult, but it also brings the site up another notch IMO, specifically because no one's gonna have to worry about what a moderator may see while screwing around in your account, or changing your stuff around, again like what happened to me.
