If you would permit me, here are some thoughts of a noob.[>:]
Freedom of speech? Not here. This is Matrix's playground. They paid for it. It is their ball. They have money tied up in this company thing, and own the rights to SPWAW. An outbreak of unpleasantness on one of their forums might make them look bad to future customers and investors. That might hurt future investment of time and money in SPWAW.
That would be bad for my favourite game. [:(]
Being a forum moderator is a thankless, lousy, job. Too easy going, the forum turns into a kindergarten that puts people off. Too heavy handed, it turns into a concentration camp that puts people off.
That would be bad for my favourite game. [:(]
There are very few other products (telephones, dishwashers etc), where the users can band together to tell the makers exactly what they think. It can be a useful tool for improving the product. It is easy for people to get into entrenched positions about their favourite aspect of the game, and even easier to become over-protective, if not abusive. When that happens, other people stop visiting, to avoid the aggro.
That would be bad for my favourite game. [:(]
On a personal note, may I thank the main protagonists in this for settling their differences, or at least agreeing to disagree, without the 'Yah, boo, sucks - I'm off!' ending that we have all seen so many times in the past.
This is good for my favourite game!

Ok, now that everyone is aware of the forum rules, I'm locking this thread.
