RSC - banned content
Another stupid rule at RSC regarding banned members
is "content" from a banned member isn't allowed. Not allowing discussions to be made on behalf of a banned member (assuming that it can be reasonably proven that the poster wouldn't have independently made the same discussion), is OK with me. However by not allowing content authored by a banned member, you only deny the members of RSC of access to potentially helpful content, like guides, links, pictures, setups, or videos. The basis for accepting content or link to content at RSC should be based on the content, not who created the content. In my particular case, I've always allowed anyone to freely copy and/or rehost anything they find on my web site, and without asking for any reverse links or reference to me. This means a RSC member could copy something from my web site (guide, picture, video) and host it himself, but could never post a link to it at RSC, simply because I was the author, regardless of how beneficial the content is. I remember getting a warning for posting a link to the slick tire mod for LFS S1, simply because it was created by a banned RSC member, even though would be no way for a reasonable person to be aware of this fact. Unlike RSC, Scawen has allowed links to slicks for all cars mods for both S1 and S2 to be posted at his Live For Speed site, taking the pragmatic and consumer friendly attitude that as long as it doesn't affect legitimate servers, he doesn't have a problem with the purchasers of LFS having more fun with the game via mods. |

He's almost single handedly wiped out any interest in posting about action games because all that comes back is lunatic ravings similar to yours. If I was running a forum you would most certainly get banned for being a boring tosser. |

Why do you bother with all of this? It's not like it's of worldly
importance. Move on and just ignore these rather innocuous breaches of freedom of speech. Alanb |

"Riteous"???
What are you trying to say......."Righteous"? "Riotous"? In either case, the word doesn't make sense when used to describe that GIF. Bruce. "PlowBoy" > wrote in message news:Z53Se.21809$hp.13831@lakeread08... > that was freaking riteous, you got more? |

Don't need to, we have RAS,and plenty of other racing game oriented forums that don't have the issues that RSC does. |
