Terms of Service that don't require us to censor ourselves

[Kuishen]

Seriously SE, you made these forums to get our feedback, correct?

According to your Terms of Service for the forums, we can't say anything bad about FFXI, the forum, or SE. How exactly are we supposed to give you our feedback when all we can post is:

"I like FFXI, FFXI is good, and SE is a great company."

If you want people to kiss your ass then get your secretaries/interns to do it, don't make it so everybody on the forums has to do it as well.

Totally agree. Oddly enough, the majority of us don't live in a country where free speech is disallowed, so the idea of being told to be completely nice about FFXI or get out seems alittle... moot.

I can see this going far.

Or Getting removed soon? lol

I'm writing up a post that apparently may violate the ToS. Let's see what happens.

Let's put it this way:

With the way a lot of the idiocies in the game go, I've already had to censor myself a number of times.

If you honestly believe you have free speech in your country, you are probably too asleep to ever truly speak.

(Not to mention that "free speech" does NOT apply in a private forum.)

In all honestly, I don't think they're going to usher the ban-hammer out to everyone that doesn't speak like an iconic-fanboy. It'll most likely be for repeated, sever offenses. This is linked to your ffxi account, so you can really only register once and if it comes down to it, I'd assume you're just going to be forum banned.

I mean, they can't not have these types of rules, just because you know people are going to troll as much as possible, but you never know..it DOES say it's a possibility and I think that's where people get "on-edge". I mean, I don't even really want to post in this thread to be honest..but then I think, if I get banned over this, then it's not worth it to play..gotta stand up for something.

Having the possibility of ffxi account being banned could be removed I think however.

Just made my post. I was already writing it before I saw this topic and realized what the ToS said. So I kept writing it anyway. Let's see. :/

It hath been destroyed. What was it about anyway?

[Starcade]

No, Zenoxio.

I can't think that's against the TOS here (the "please look in to the Billing Customer Service" stuff)

The only thing I could see happening is that it gets moved to the Suggestions forum, but I can't see that as too negative toward Square-Enix.

(I have experience in that...)
