On the odd chance someone in the universe finds this sadly funny- I already hate SoylentNews with all of my bitter little heart. The reason is especially ironic given that SN was born of "FuckBeta" movement. I loathe unneeded and overbroad Terms of Service. I suppose the only reason I read ToS is because I'm a massochist. "You agree not to post any abusive, obscene, vulgar, slanderous, **hateful**, threatening, sexually-orientated or any other material that may violate any laws be it of your country, the country where “SoylentNews” is hosted or International Law." I actually can't register to their forums because I just can't stand to have to think about whether or not something I say might be "hateful". Much of what I like to write about is that which I hate. I write hateful things on internet forums because I think if I didn't, I'd commit violent acts in real life. What I loved about slashdot was the freedom to - for instance, say things like "Fuck Beta", and know that it was totally acceptable in that forum. $0.02... (Yes, I know, sane people don't read ToS, or if they do, they don't actually think about them. Like I said, I'm sadly a psychotic massochist in that way) -dmc
