Well you have heard the old saying so why do you imagine it to be any different on the internet.
Seems to me a few forum admins  are far to over protective of it's members and do not believe in freedom of speech.
I don't understand gays,wars,or why bears find the same spot to s*** in the woods but i would like to discuss all three openly and not have my posts deleted.

Because while this is a public forum it's privately funded and administered. And the administer who funds it gets to decide how far freedom of speech goes here.

Since this is primarily a microstock forum, maybe it would make more sense for you to find forums whose main subjects are gays, wars, and bears. 

 

Really, you're going to get banned here, too, Shank?

There is some sense in this world.

Warren my little hun,i indeed have a life and also an active account on istockphoto....

Mike,your totally missing the point as per the norm.Those topics just came of the top of my head.
Any subject should be discussed openly without swearing or prejudice.

Jeez, another 'freedom of speech' thread. When are you people going to understand that there is no such thing. What Amendment I of the Bill of Rights says is "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

1. It does not say you have freedom of speech.
2. This forum isn't governed by the United States Congress
3. This is the Internet, not the USA
4. This, as someone else pointed out, is a private forum that the public is invited to participate in.

As the forum is the private property of the owner, he has every right to remove inappropriate content, and the degree of inappropriate or distasteful is at his own discretion.

You are however welcome to go out into any public street wearing a sandwich board proclaiming your views for all to see.

There is no freedom of speech. Except deep down in the woods when you're all alone. Maybe.

no, it's only funny because you misread it.

if Jack Higgins meant the boy had a bottom like a peach, he would have written:
there is a boy WITH A BOTTOM LIKE A PEACH across the river.

 

I have been online about five years and enjoy chatting to people from around the world.It started on yahoo games and the forums attached to the games room.It progressed to msn and yahoo messanger.Bought a mic and webcam and we had some really good confo's ( 5-8 peeps connected on messanger talking and camming).Paltalk followed and i enjoyed the music rooms.
I left all that behind when i discovered photography in april 2007.Learning about photography and basic photo editing in my adobe elements 5.0 has been very time consuming this last 18 months but so very rewarding.
The forums attached to istock are a great help and now i find myself on another forum.
You just need to relax and understand their are some people online who's heads peek out from their ass ... and humour is not in everyones make-up.
The End.

Rejecting posts to a forum is no different to rejecting images to a microstock site. Standards apply, and some posts don't meet them. Learn the standards and avoid rejections.
