I'd love to know how he could send it over PM on the forums. afaik that isn't an available feature on these forums.
though I do agree, sending something like that wouldn't be a good idea.
Ah my bad >.< As you can see I'm new to the forums lol. Guess that's good then.
And 38...
I love it when people say, "I hate this place I'm leaving FOREVER!!" then stick anyway :P.
So, hilarious internet rage aside, good on you OP for apologizing. I'll admit, I'm curious about the story anyway, but I'll let it die. I hope this hasn'truined your chances at alpha/beta.
Companies that do business with the public are expected to honor the rights of those they do business with- however, when conditions are placed on doing business and clients agree to those conditions, they can be bound by them- e.g. license agreements that take away your right to sue, rules that abridge free speech, etc.I'd like to correct you - in your house you can throw him out for any damn reason you please - or no reason even. Not just for violating a rule. As SE can do here. They can ban us on the spot for a frivolous reason and they are within their full right to do so. Just doesn't go over well with customers to take their money and ban for no reason :P
My comment is merely a statement of truth directed at one who had the misguided notion that the American 1st amendment right to free speech applies here, when in fact it doesn't. It is not an "attempt" at anything.Your comment is also a failed attempt to use the transitive property of equality.

Ah, the times through high school when people only half payed attention in class
Lol, +1 for not misinterpreting what free speech means XD
However a company cannot take away your right to sue, even if it is in a contract.

They can, actually. It's called an arbitration clause. They have to provide some means of dispute resolution (arbitration in this case) but when you sign these agreements, you are agreeing that your sole remedy for disputes will be arbitration and you give up your right to sue through normal channels. Companies do this all the time (PayPal just did recently, I got an email about it from them) in order to shield themselves from expensive class actions and other suits.
Don't worry though, as that arbitrator is TOTALLY independent and not sided with the company at all, and will issue a fair judgement! (lol...)

Are we talking about a ToS? You can tell them to stuff it under those agreements, as has happened before. Though they can do the same to you. LolThey can, actually. It's called an arbitration clause.
