Anandtech is not a government forum. It is privately owned and the owner can set any rules he likes.
Don't like it? Don't post here.

So where is there a popular forum that is ruled democratically? One more sign that this society is not democratic, and it will not become really democratic as long as people keep on accepting being undemocratically ruled like obedient sheep. Congress, media, corporations, forums,...no democracy. Only compliance with the order set by the oligarchy and enforced by its puppets.
Why can't you just go stand on a street corner and yell at passerbys like the other nutballs?

As I predicted, so many Lifers Platinum and Diamonds egos come to defend their undemocratic forum that makes them feel so much more important than in real life.

Message from your capitalist masters: "we love you little obedient sheep for respecting our divine rights over you!"
I bet you did not read Edward Bernays' book "Propaganda".
It's privately owned.
I am not a capitalist. I do not respect capitalist ownership. I am in favor of direct democracy, of the public ownership of corporations like this one, that have to be ruled democratically in order for us to be free, and continuously not slaves all day long of corporate masters, and after work without the right to talk together freely on popular forums on internet because corporations and their puppet mods do not allow that.
I'd understand your tirade against "Big Oil" or "Telecom Giants", but this a tech forum / review site. You want true free speech, put up your own BB software and moderate it according to your own criteria.

I prefer that to creating a little sect in a dark corner of internet (let us be realistic: most people already have their habits and already go to the same forums/places all the time. But I may create a democratic forum one day, if I have enough money for the bandwidth...another reason why internet is not really democratic: the cost of the bandwidth! the rich are favoured). I am a democratic person. I fight for real democracy where I think it matters now.
By the way, most barking posters here and the mods show no respect for democracy, since according to a Zogby poll 42% of US adults are critical of the bush appointed 9/11 commission and want a new commission, like the people in the panel on C-SPAN, and like the people who like me want to be free to talk about it on all forums.

He's angry that it turned into a flamefest in P&N and that the mods locked it up and now he's over here to complain, call people names and generally work on getting himself banned.

42%? That's not even a majority! If you respected democracy, you'd listed to the other 58%!!!
You're a hoot.

Wrong: you forgot the undecided! No clear above 50% majority.
Anyway, that is pathetic to see you expressing your absolute misconception of democracy unashamed: the minority has rights, like freedom of speech.
