Ya, its not education anymore, its indoctrination.

People like it, they like to move in herds.

"Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds"
written in 1841, it still holds true.

It is funny,
I dont like most of what Bernie and others have to say but I believe in their right to say it.

Whats funny, is the "snowflakes" are literally ready to give up the principles the very nation was founded upon because some guy says something totally meaningless on an entirely insignificant thread.

The First Amendment (Amendment I) to the United States Constitution prevents Congress from making any law respecting an establishment of religion, prohibiting the free exercise of religion, or abridging the freedom of speech, the freedom of the press, the right to peaceably assemble, or to petition for a governmental redress of grievances. It was adopted on December 15, 1791, as one of the ten amendments that constitute the Bill of Rights.


Wait a second... now the CC forum is congress and we are making laws? Shit I should have taken this privatly owned website forum more seriously... I mean I know saxi got Trump elected all on his own, but I must have missed the executive order granting us the power to make laws!

I posted this before, I think the thread was deleted(so much for free speech, lol)

The first amendment does not say anything about being polite, for those that dont understand it means a person can say whatever the heck he wants excluding "fire" in a movie theatre etc.
It actually doesnt say that but common sense should prevail.

In any case, with free speech comes "hurt feelings". big deal.

Kinda like trading freedom for security, ya just lose both.

"People willing to trade their freedom for temporary security deserve neither and will lose both. If we restrict liberty to attain security we will lose them both." Ben Franklin got some fame for saying that.

But really, political correctness and being all nice and snugly has gotta be worth our liberty'

Who gives a crap who and how many died for them? lol

Honest opinion, its pathetic,
imo cc should be doing no more than keeping the copious amount of disgusting garbage not suitable for children off the threads.

If free speech is not permitted, why have the threads?


Didn't you give up your right to say just anything you want when you agreed to this?

terms of service wrote:You acknowledge and agree that Conquer Club has the right (but not the obligation) to do any or all of the following, at its sole discretion: (i) alter, remove, or refuse to post or allow to be posted or stored any Submission or message; (ii) monitor and/or filter any of your communications through the Forums (including without limitation, by means of blocking or replacing expletives or other language that may be deemed harmful or offensive);


And I thought we were trying to do this. But not for just the children.

Free speech should not be an expectation @ CC.

Free speech within limits.

You never answered my question. Didn't you give up your right to say what ever you wanted when you accepted the terms of service?

We are trying to keep the disgusting garbage off the site. It appears to me you want us to do something and then complain when we do.

So what rules did Bernie break? If CC likes it's rules and regulations you need to be more transparent when adhering them.

Sigh....

Here are the "rules":


Community Guidelines
Postby TeeGee on Wed Nov 02, 2016 3:36 pm

Common sense prevails - if you are intentionally or continually making this community less enjoyable for others, you may be removed from it. It's that simple. This applies to any part of the site where interaction takes place; in Forums, Private Messages, Live Chat and Game Chat

Rules, precedents and customs from other communities don't apply.

Neither do the By-Laws from the Podunk 3rd district. Believe it or not, Conquer Club is a private business. Just because something works one way in another community does not mean that is how it will work here. We're usually less strict and you can get away with a lot, but that doesn't mean that you can pull the "This is how it works everywhere else" card and expect to get away with it. Really. This is not "everywhere else."
In the same vein, just because you are here, does not mean you MUST be here. This is a business and CC does reserve the right to promote or discourage any kind of behavior it sees fit. Claiming your first amendment right to free speech to post about the colour of your poop last night will not fly. If a mod or admin specifically say you shouldn't be doing something, regardless of if it's specifically spelled out in the rules, or if you think that they are stupid, it still means don't do it. If you don't like the rules here, google.com will help you find somewhere more appropriate.

Be nice or leave

It's fine if you don't like this site or the way it is run...find another one with better rules, start another one and make your own rules, abuse another one and try to get them to change their rules, but don't complain about the rules here. :D

Community Guidelines

1. Do NOT be intentionally destructive - If you do anything that harms or can be perceived to harm this site you may be removed from it.

2. Do NOT post personal information about others without their direct consent.

3. Do not push boundaries - If you are asked to stop by a member of the moderation team then STOP. Do not continue and do NOT persist.
If you feel they are wrong, approach their team leader. If you still disagree then ask an admin (by filing an e-ticket).


4. Do not incite, conduct or encourage the conduct of illegal activities.

5. Do not promote without permission any business or product outside of this website.

6. The internet has more than enough pornography without it being here. Let's keep it that way. This includes any links to pornography, pictures, etc. If you are unsure, then don't risk it.

7. Racism is not permitted on this site in ANY form. This includes ALL forms of racism (e.g. even if your country is at war with another or "reverse" racism).

Just because it offends you does not make it against the site rules or illegal. CC has a foe feature and we recommend you use it

8. Account Sitting is allowed with the stipulation that the account babysitter is not your opponent in any current game. It is common courtesy to announce in game chat that another player will take your turn(s) during your absence. Babysitters should only do what is necessary to take the turn(s) and should not interact with the community, start or join new games (except for ongoing tournaments). Furthermore, you should only take another player's turn if they are in danger of missing a turn, not for the purpose of gaining a tactical advantage.


Fairly self explanatory.

Let's just say you won my friend. The other rules are mainly to be taken on a personal level by the moderation team. If that's the case then they need to take some of the responsibility for the lack of interest in the forum!
