What some view as a being polite and troll free, others may view as discriminatory, exclusionary, and pro-censorship. You can't have both. If someone has the right to ban you from speaking freely, should they have ever been granted the right to converse with you in the first place? Birds of a feather flock together ... Over time exclusionary environments shift toward the majority belief of those in control and discriminate against the minority. This problem affects all forums with logins and walled-off fiefdoms like Facebook. Freedom is founded upon dissenting voices, openness, optional anonymity, and a willingness to listen others out of respect. Many of the world's most brilliant minds have said and done things which are or once were hated. Rod Pemberton -- How to kill Facebook. Tell a bunch of fourth graders that only old people use Facebook. Wait eight years.
