Whether you like fantasy sports or not I am sure this will raise hit close to home for many who joined this board due to restrictions on that "other board".
I am part of a fantasy bball league at Yahoo and it appears it is run by a bunch of fascist motherfuckers because those last couple of words would of gotten our PRIVATE message board taken down until the league manger groveled to the dicks that be to have it put back up. Seriously, this internet censorship is bullshit.

While motherfuckers could cause sites like Yahoo problems with their millions of users... it doesn't have much impact around here - as all of us Wastelanders appear to be the results of incest.

Oh no, Leon's little baseball league lost their board. Whatever will they do? It's prolly more of the fact that Yahoo dislikes douches from Rockford than they are trying to stifle free speech. Rockford sucks ass.

Does anyone, anyone at all know what free speech means!?!
If the government was shutting down your fantasy baseball smack, that is infringing on your FOS. If it was not a government operative doing that, then your freedom of speech was not violated. Whoever is in charge gets to determine what is exceptable speech or not.

I think it's pretty clear what free speech means. Anyone censoring a message board is stifling free speech, as free speech is broadly the ability to speak without censorship. Whether such stifling of free speech is actionable pursuant to the First Amendment to the Constitution is a different issue that no one addressed until you brought it up wholly out of context.

The reason people from Rock town use the term "motherfucker" is because they think it's a verb instead of a noun, adequately describing the preferred hobby of most who live in said town.

Why don't you just rename this board to the "Proper Grammar Board" and then we can all sit around and diagram statements.
