I got the feeling it was his response and not an official one. The problem with that is that if you feel a person should be able to make a post then you kindof have to be willing for people to respond to it.

I actually find board nazis more comfortable. A board being run as "my board, my rules" tends to be more comfortable to me than Boards where freedom of speech gets tested continually. It can be a board that says "no such Posts" or one that says "no such responses", either way the clarity makes me confortable. But thats just me. Luckily, no matter how extreme a view, on the Internet no one has to be alone. There are plenty of Boards for everyone.

I think I agree with Gandalf about the idea of "my rules" but I do see where Gillesie is coming from.

And yeah I do believe that Mephisto's response was a personal one because no official sharp geezers have weighed in (and rightly so)

For the record I think the motive behind advertising for players here could have been that he wants the kind of smart and mature players and peeps we get on this forum
