I think Gaia is not too bad, as someone said, they don't censor our speech yet. It is well within their power to change every "********" to "fun" or something.
The thing that annoys me most is when someone claims "dictatorship" over their thread and then places threats of banning if you disagree with their views. A forum is to discuss ideas. Not to ban & delete those ideas you oppose.
I am quite proud of Gaia, actually... as a few of my posts were deleted by moderators and I thought they had something against me, so I started a very spiteful anti-Gaia's nazi confirmism thread and they didn't delete it! So Gaia's not completely communist. But I DO think some "thread owners" take their supposed powers too far. There's a huge difference between debating ideas and attack people personally. I will debate my ideas down to the last breath but I feel no need to attack someone personally unless attacked first. And even then, on here it's only looking from trouble to respond to such. Like a fight in a bar.
I also get annoyed when moderators delete new topics that are relatively similar to another thread, but not exactly. For instance, maybe you hate everyone in the other thread. Or maybe you want to discuss a certain aspect and not all the general b.s. a main thread is discussing. It's just not uniform in it's justice. And there's wild ego-happy thread owners running about. All I can say is, I disagree. (please don't delete me or report me b/c I disagree crying )
