i disagree. it was a bad move down a slippery slope. censorship is censorship.

you have had a justice boner for aged for months. last time you did this shit, putt said it was allowed even if he didn't like it. then you had a nervous breakdown. now it seems that it just takes is putt agreeing that he doesn't like content to get a user banned from a system sub. i think that's a huge step backwards. definitely not in line with the spirit of the site. not unless we are no longer about free speech.

honestly, this whole thing was badly handled.

It's not censorship to maintain a community based around a specific topic. You're only calling it censorship because of the nature of the content in question. If someone was posting cooking videos to this sub it wouldn't be a conversation about censorship but simply one about "why the fuck are you not posting this shit in v/cooking or something?"

You wouldn't go to a civil war reenactment event dressed as a storm trooper and talk about star wars the whole time. It's just ridiculous.

Free speech doesn't mean we have to humour every autistic retard in every context no matter what.

You're free to post whatever you want. But why deliberately post it in a community that is obviously not about that thing, when there are communities out there already, on other sites as well as here on voat, that are specifically for that content? When you do deliberately post content that is off-topic to a specific community, it appears less like a statement about free speech than simply an autistic troll campaign.

but that's not what the rules say. the posts are technically gaming related. if you want to change the rules, that's certainly a discussion i would be interested in. make a fan art rule. banning a user is way to heavy handed.

They're not gaming related you fucking idiot.

frenemy ago

it is, in fact, art of gaming characters.

Porn is not art you fucking Jew.

frenemy ago

oh noes! i've been called a jew on voat! what ever will i do!?!?

gaming related porn is not against the rules. it just needs a nsfw tag.

fuckingmockies ago

Porn belongs in porn subs. It's as simple as that. You wouldn't post a video of two people fucking in a car to v/cars, and you wouldn't post a video of a woman fucking a cucumber to v/JustGrowIt - I don't know why you think v/gaming is any different.

frenemy ago

oh? which rule is that?

fuckingmockies ago

Can't tell if you're just retarded or if you're being wilfully obstinate...

...the entire purpose behind having different subverses is for the organization of content. Keep your porn in porn subs, keep vegetables out of v/fruits and fruits out of /vegetables, etc.

This isn't a free speech or censorship issue, it's a categorization issue.

To be honest I'm just surprised that v/fruits is actually about fruit.
