Does anyone email HTC first about this sort of stuff and discuss the chat records for understanding? Every time it seems to start here it ends here with a stunning revalation of the three sides to the story. Theirs, yours, and the factual truth.
Not saying none of this is true but historically speaking it rarely is. Similar to a mod saying they are a mod. Not likely to happen if they are truly a mod but if it did they would no longer be one. Also easily identified by those same chat records.
I've PMed skuzzy once or twice when I got a post deleted here, asking how it violated a rule. While we didn't see eye-to-eye on the issue, he was very polite, and I know the line to avoid now.
That being said,
Many have quit for sure because of the censorship. Grown ups don't like to be nannied.
I wholeheartedly agree with this. I understand their point, that this is a family-friendly game and site, and so I can understand things of an inappropriate nature ('Adult' content, swearing, etc.) being off limits, when they banned political discussions in the forums, I really stopped checking in. There are a lot of very intelligent people here, much more so than I am in this area, and I enjoyed the discussions and actually learning things from my fellow AH pilots, and things feel rather empty now that everyone is tip-toeing around. It's their game to do what they want, certainly, I just wanted to agree that I'm not fond of how long the list of "no-nos" is getting.
