Just got banned on thesaber. What a bunch of weaklings. I

Post by oaktonhokie »

did not swear, I was not even mean spirited, much. Pretty snarky, sarcastic.

About ten of them jumped in to show their great wit and intellectual superiority. One of them at least, must have run to tell the teacher.

Good natured (really it was. I actually LIKE uva) pregame jawing. And I got banned.

If you go there now, you will see their brilliant remarks, rebuttals, and rejoinders. The last three of mine were banned. Not that they were anything special.

What a bunch of weaklings.

Holy smokes, not only am I banned, they erased all my posts. About eight or ten. So they have their brilliant remarks and replies, with no context. Makes them seem REALLY lame.

And such weaklings.

Was I that rough on the little fellas? Heck, I even told them that I like uva...51 weeks per year. I like that two five star players stayed in state, if not tech, than uva.

I asked them if they'll watch our bowl game and why such brilliant minds even trifle in football and acknowledging inferior folks from blacksburg.

I did say that they are not a worthy rival as one must attain more than one win per decade to achieve rival status. I proclaimed Miami as our rival.

I was looking for some good natured rough and tumble. Free speech does not exist at mr Jefferson's university. What a bunch of weaklings.

C'mon dave. Nothing I said was worthy of a ban.

And yes, I know I don't have the right to say anything at all on their site...or on yours for that matter. But why have a site if all you will have is a partisan echo chamber?

Why not mix it up a bit? It's uva week for crying out loud.

We don't call them French for no good reason. They are weak, yet arrogant. And so being 2nd or 3rd place in the Commonwealth grates on their self esteem. Look at how they divert to the laughable claim of better looking women at UVA. And really, most of the fans are Cville area rednecks and morons. That shows on their board.

Disagree. The proprietor sets the limits and enforces them.

Imagine multiple ihops, recepticals or diggys overwhelming an otherwise decent product.

My issue is not that there are limits, but rather where the limits were drawn.

Friendly, civil smack hurt their feelings. One would think that they could humiliate and dismiss any opponent by dint of their superior wit and I intellect. And not resort to tattle telling to "make the mean man go away."

Rapier like wit, one could assume.

Generally, the 1st Amendment pertains to protecting your speech against the government. Citing the 1st Amendment or "free speech" isn't valid when a private website wishes to regulate speech.

There are times and places for censorship. Parents can and should censor what their kids are allowed to say, and watch and read.

Stores can and should censor what patrons can say and do in their stores.

I have said here before that I sent a workman home from my office a few years back when he came in with a tee shirt that said "Girls like big peckers," in reference to a bar of that name.

I censored him.

Banned for the same thing a couple of years ago. In the early days, I would talk trash over there and it all seemed to fly. After not posting there at all for 5 or 6 years, I went over there to talk a little trash before the game in 2011 or maybe 2012. Really tame stuff. Was really surprised that I was banned because of it. I imagine if I made a case to have my account reinstated, they would, but I haven't gotten around to it and I probably won't anytime soon. I never have enough of a burning desire to chime in over there that I would lobby boardhost or whoever is in charge now.
