I deleted it myself; most respondents seemed to dislike the guitar so much I removed it. My apologies to rct and to the mods for any confusion about this. Best wishes to all.

SteveFord Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 Being a Moderater here would bite, you'd have to read every single thing to see who is misbehaving. I do it on an audio site and have to do practically nothing which is my specialty. If I was a Moderator on the Gibson Forum I'd just ban myself and get it over with. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about locking it and leaving it so people can see the example of what went wrong? It is literally a crapshoot as to what you can and can't post, because posts that clearly violate the rules linger and simmer while posts that are...well, who knows? I get that it isn't an easy job, it just always devolves into a dark mystery as to what one can and can't say because the violations are taken down without comment, or it appears to be just plain old personal. If two or three contributors are causing a problem, lock the thread, give them a week off, show everybody what you can't do here. Rules are much easier to follow when they are clearly enforced, not clearly written. rct Exactamundo ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not directing this statement to those who live outside the U.S.A. Because, your Countries laws may be different.. There are Countries that “Freedom of Sppeech” isn’t allowed.. I’m directing this statement to American Citizens.. I really find it hard to believe that Gibson Inc., it’s CEO & their Board of Directors wants to allow a Forum using their “Name” that doesn’t allow the Freedom of Speech in America… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NighthawkChris Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 Freedom of speech isn’t exercised on a corporate forum. By the logic that I’m allowed to say whatever I want here in this exact forum, why can’t I go into my work’s office and start saying stuff I feel I should be allowed to say. Freedom of speech right? No. There’s a time and place for everything and free speech as people now a days call it isn’t for a corporate controlled forum. Why is it so hard for people to understand this forum is a program o someone else’s computer and they only want the crap they want to be on again, THEIR computer. You want free speech make your own server and let the wackos abroad say whatever they want. See where that gets ya… can someone please quote the first amendment. Let’s interpret it and figure out if Gibson is violating this. I’ll stand corrected if they are in violation. I’m going with just follow the posted rules or go to another forum that lets you add the types of “free” speech you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
