And if you all want to welcome trolls to this forum (AFAIK there are too many already), be my guest, but I shall be gone when that happens, because the only information that would be posted here would be useless stuff.

But right, maybe I shall start my own forum, and call it Unfree Flight and Bannable Speech! According to you all this fits more into my taste :D

Right.
So he was banned because you asked for it, and it was a favor granted! kind of thing?

Clarity on this issue is not making a nicer of a picture.

If we gave everybody in the World free software today, but we failed to teach them about the four freedoms, five years from now, would they still have it?

I don't think it was a favor at all, I have never even spoken to Curt before...

FFS
I'm done with this shit. You are again taking information from nothing and turning into rubbish.

Have fun when usairways231 fills your forum with nonsense and NSFW content.

Goodbye,
Josh

Just some thoughts ...

Curtis' forum is his forum, he bears responsibility for what happens there.
This forum is, despite the fact, that I surrendered some of the powers, that come with running a forum to the community, is my forum and thus, here I bear responsibility.
And whoever runs a Discord channel bears the responsibility there.

Translation: I am neither really interested in Curtis' forum nor in Discord at this time. If Usairways comes up here and behaves, I will not even waste a minute to look what he does elsewhere. If he comes up here and shows some kind of weird behavior, I will talk to him. Lets be honest here, we had over the time some people here with growing pains, with personal crises that made them for a time act "weird", hell at some point, even I had some anger issues here. Oh wait ... Jabberwocky and some anger issues are not that new ... but bottom line is, we have here a quite long history with all kinds of incidents. People forget, but some members are here since years, mellowed in many aspects, lives changed. If we would have applied "he is a troll" as measure back then, I think, there would be some more people missing here today. Well, some few trolls got trolled here, that comes with the territory. Some hang on. Most of them developed in quite respectable men, known today more for flying or developing skills.
There are some things, this community did, that neither Curtis' forum nor Discord can do, as it looks because behind the scenes, the forum here is not just a technical thing, it is just the technical expression of a community. Or it was, till many went off to Discord. Honestly, I wish, we could go back more to this community view on things. But then, unlike Curtis, I am not a king or something. I don't usually threaten people with "bow or ban" policies. So, this is just some food for thought.

Free speech can never be achieved by dictatorial measures!
