If there is a journal up by someone that you know you have issues with, and read their journal, that is the same as looking for trouble, and just TRYING to cause problems for them. There are some journals and forums and groups that I don't go to. Why? because I know that is not something I would agree with.
I also don't post on some sites anymore, because freedom of speech is not welcome there, unless you are in agreement with what is being said. Insults are left up when one side makes them, but actual events and comments are removed when another side makes them. Why? because some one has had their "feelings hurt."
But if they want to claim freedom of speech, then why can' it be for EVERYONE, not just for something they want said!
Basically, every time we open our mouth, we run the risk of offending SOME ONE! I mean, even asking someone, "Its a lovely day, isn't it?" will offend some.
I think that the cut and pasting of Pm's to send to others should be restricted aswell...dont you ..
Correction from above no one was banned, their religious journals were banned ,I should have made it clear..
The auto hide for the side bar is a good idea, and of course one doesnt have to read the journals if you dont want I doubt the sick will want to look anyway, as for the moods it sounds rather trivial ....
