Oedipus, your right to free speech isn't being compromised. It's ambrosia's privately owned board, and they have the right to complete control of what is posted on it. They could ban you right now for no good reason and it would still be legal.

and I could send you five pounds of hate mail, but who cares? it may be ambrosia's privately owned board, but what i put in my sig was censored, so, technically, under the rules they put up, they had no right to put me down, or at least jude didn't. Of course, jude was crazy and never liked anyone who made the vaguest notion of swearing, so I wont whine

Wrong. Completey, utterly, and totally wrong. Your freedom of speech extends to the government, but beyond that, there is jack that you can do, since it is no longer a right.

No. what the constitution says is that no laws shall be passed impressing on religion, press, speech, or congregation. laws meaning, well, laws. the censorship of these boards is a law, meaning that it is impressing on my right to freedom of speech, and is therefore unconstitutional
But you know what? They have the right to supress your freedom of speech because this is THEIR board and they can tell you what you can and can't post! If you don't like that you can post somewhere else.

That is, pardon the bluntness, wrong. Ambrosia Software is not a government institution, therefore it is not a law. It is their choice.

They are not supressing freedom of speech since the freedom does not extend to here.
Oh, can some moderator move this to B&B;? It really does not belong here...
guess what guys, "Lifes a bitch. And then you die" get over it! America sucks, freedom of speech is a joke, but Im not complainin, and if your pissed, you can move to Canada. Aaahhh, Canada; where you can be eatin by a bear and nobody can know for years
