Here are some people complaining about the censorship over at the IS forums. It's hilarious!

Thanks for making the decision for me when I have done enough talking. In fact I was in the middle of typing a response. Seeing as you are literally the gestapo and thought police of the IS boards combined I sort of saw it coming though and i can't say im suprised. I expect this post to be removed soon too..Cmon then cat boy, tut tut, hurry up and remove it along with whatever other conversations or heated discussions tickle your fancy at 2 AM in the morning. you disgust me sir. Just as your "masters" and their "game" do equally. EDIT: My god, she's lasted a good thirty seconds? So either you are on coffee break, or you decided to relax on clicking the refresh button to prevent carple tunnel syndrom from claiming your remaing hand.

If had a messageboard and it looked like the Ion Storm ones, I'd be putting on the fascist boots too.

Interesting, after reading this thread I went to the IS board immediately to check this "Fascism" out, but then it seems most of the valid complaints and negative comments are still intact there. By valid I mean not some threads full of "Spector is a JERK", or "F**K IS AND DUMBOX" things...

it has become like gamefaqs over there. and yet i can't help but feel there keeping all the dodgy threads to make all the complainers look like muppets. (ooh conspiricy)

What I think is more likely is that they're finally putting an end to all the repetitive threads people keep making with points against the demo that have been repeated ad nauseum a hundred damn times. About time they started cleaning up redundant threads, says I!
daveodeth on 30/11/2003 at 14:51
unfortunately after you've got rid of all those posts, it's nothing but F*uck you spector all the way. I for one would rather see discussions about old topics than nothing but purile insults.

Considering that The Duggler and bloodstorm are the worst troublemakers on the forum, I'm not surprised.
When people registered to their forum, they agreed to:
*No Cursing or Swearwords. We encourage you to use our Communities as a forum to debate topics, but please use proper adjectives to express yourself. This includes the creative use of different characters to circumvent our censor.
*No Attacks / Retaliation of any kind against a member, or group of members. You will not harass, threaten, embarrass, or do anything else to another Member or guest that is unwanted. This means: don't say bad things about them, don't keep sending them unwanted messages, don't attack their race, sexual orientation, religion, heritage, etc.
*No abusive language. You agree, through your use of this service, that you will not use this Forum to post any material which is knowingly false and/or defamatory, inaccurate, abusive, vulgar, hateful, harassing, obscene, profane, sexually oriented, threatening, invasive of a person's privacy, or otherwise volatile of any law. Hate speech is not tolerated. We will not tolerate abuse upon another member!
*Other things.
We can't blame Ion Storm when it's The Duggler and bloodstorm, and a few others, who doesn't follow the rules. We AGREED to those terms when we registered.
The Duggler is the guy who also made the "Six Big Cocks Attacking A Huge Wet Pussy!!!" thread :rolleyes:

IS forums started to deteriorate immeadiately when the demo was released and has reached it's point awhile ago. Even though some well-reasoned and rightly critical posts have been deleted, I can see why it happened. The posters themselves are to blame. On another forum I frequently visit, people making threads as mentioned above would be kicked out or given some serious warning points at once= the forum is well moderated. Sometimes harsher measures could be used here as well:rolleyes:

All this rambling about the IS DX2 forum being censored is hogwash and overreaction. They're only cracking down on flaming, name-calling, and trolling, as any respectable forum would do. They're not deleting all negative posts about the game. There are still plenty of posts to be read from unhappy people with negative things to say. In fact, the majority of them are still what I would call negative.

Then major props to Bethesda or whomever is running The Elder Scrolls forums. The things said re DE:IW pale in compariosn to those said re Morrowind.
