IRONY

I find it ironic that posts about SOPA and PIPA are getting systemically wiped and locked throughout the internet while at the same time mainstream media calls experts to discredit wikipedia and the other sites that have blacked out today.

 

Whoever locks or deletes this post, think about your actions.  Are you following a forum rule or actually acting as a preview of what the internet is like when individuals and corporations are given the power to regulate the internet through legalized censorship.

 

This is not meant as a discussion either.  I'm not thumbing my nose, I'm making a statement of record.  Even with mmorpg.com's forum rules, I am disappointed that the moderators have not allowed the discussion of this day in the off-topic section briefly as long as it remained civil.  I feel it would have been relevant even if it were locked at the end of the day.

So we are allowed to discuss it as a news article?

pretty sure they lock threads so they can contain all the arguers to the News Post, otherwise there's a new "SOPA will ruin my life" post every 2 hours.

Yes, please keep the discussion to the news post threads. Thanks.
