Isn't this a violation of his freedom of speech?

Marty might be annoying, but he does have the right to express himself.

Otherwise, why did we leave Paradox OT for Languish?



Freedom of speech, in a privately owned internet forum?!   :nelson:

The line is drawn at death threats by PM?

You must be mistaken.
Martinus would never threaten somebody's life.

And Marti admitted the contents in the same thread in the main forum.

I call it bullshit.
Where is the proof that Marti wasn't cybertortured to admit to something he never did.

Well, if Siege is willing to vouch for him, maybe we should let him off the hook.

Or maybe Siege needs to be punished for defending Marti?  :hmm:

Well, of course!
It is a problem of principle. Martinus have to the right to express his opinion.
I thought this is what Languish and the exodus from Paradox was all about.
Yes, Martinus some times crosses the limits of civilized behavior, but this should not be grounds for a permaban.

If he really threatened somebody's life, we all know he was venting his fustration.
No for a second I think he would really go and do physical harm to a member of this forum.
I'm sure we here are aware of how dedicated he is to whatever position he holds on a given topic, no matter how misguided this position might be.

At first I had my doubts but now I have reconsidered and I think you make a compelling argument.

It is certainly a more amusing argument... :D

Really don't like the idea of permabanning.
