Seems a bit heavy handed to kick someone if they hadn't violated the TOS, and I'm taking parts' word on this. Also, I'm going on what was said over at zOMG, and if what he said is true, heavy handed would be an under-statement. Still, it's your site, and we are just the membership who keep it going......Oh, and just one word of advice - just because you don't like the ethics or the membership of Soph's site doesn't give you the right to bag them without first checking them out.
Well, my friend, I am a member and I complained about the content of the thread.
And I'm sorry, if you find the topic interesting, too bad. That definitely is not what this site is for. And definitely happy to debate the issue, but I am appalled that the discussion about that sort of thing is something you feel is worth fighting for.
As for Odeon's slant on the TOS, not only are his points valid, specifically, they also state;
We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone. Any material that, in our judgment, is obscene, threatening, illegal, or violates our terms of service in any manner may be removed from our servers (or otherwise disabled), with or without notice.
Failure to respond to email from our abuse department within 48 hours may result in the suspension or termination of your services. All abuse issues must be dealt with via troubleticket/email and will have a response within 48 hours.
If in doubt regarding the acceptability of your site or service, please contact us at abuse@hostgator.com and we will be happy to assist you.
Potential harm to minors is strictly forbidden, including but not limited to child pornography or content perceived to be child pornography (Lolita):
Any site found to host child pornography or linking to child pornography will be suspended immediately without notice.
Therefore, TALKING about harm to minors, or content perceived to be child pornography, exposes the site to being shut down. Apart from being hideously offensive.
And yes, the laws the site are bound to are US laws....not the freehanded laws you and others wish to debate.
And debate away, but the TOS are clear.
Personally I don't give a shit about the subject. It's the criticsm of the guy for merely discussing it that's abhorrent. If he posted pics of porn related material, then fair enough. Buty if it was just a rant or some shit about fucking kids (which was the subject of the anime - a robot fucking an 11 year old), then where is the problem? How much porn have others like TheoK and his ilk have put up on this site, only to have nothing done? Are they threatened with the ban stick because of it? buttcoffee may be a fucktard, and he may post a lot of crap, but as long as it doesn't directly fuck things up, then who gives a shit. I personally think porn is a wank, and don't bother with it, but aq discussion or question on an act can't be considered too fucking harmful.
It's a pity there aren't universal laws for things like the net, considering the US fucks everything it touches.
Fucking lighten up, for Christ's sake. no-one was advocating child porn at all anyway, and all your overreactions prove is that you can't see the forest for the trees.
You are a joke.
The initial post in the thread was quite explicit and had nothing to do with robots. And no, I don't usually overreact, but I had serious concerns and I tell you what I WOULD have taken it further if it continued without being stopped. And NO, I did not convey that to Odeon. But I would have.
And yes, Lit does post a lot of shit, and he has been banned before.
But really, as I said earlier, if you guys don't have anything better to do than tout this shit or say bullshit like 'oh he wasn't serious', or 'he was on a bad trip'..too bad.
He got a warning....give it a rest.
