Re: why am I being oppressed suppressed silenced?
Firstly, please allow me the opportunity to ensure you that neither are your views being intentionally suppressed nor are you being oppressed from voicing what you think. Now moving on to the matter you bring forth:
The thread was closed in Religion with a valid reason. Mud-slinging or building a discussion on someone’s hate speech is no start of a healthy discussion, and that is why the thread was closed.
As for the said person’s quote, it was edited out from its original thread because GupShup does not encourage defamation of any religion and/or hate speech against other individuals, their beliefs, or set of values. Members are always encouraged to use the ‘Report’ option when an inappropriate remark is seen, and an appropriate action will be taken.
I should note here that from a point that one creates a post, or starts a thread (even if it’s as retaliation to what someone else said earlier), the post/thread becomes moderateable and if deemed inappropriate it can be closed, usually with a valid reason for its closure. Again, i must stress the importance of reporting questionable posts to your moderators and thereby doing your part as a member of this thriving community.
Now i understand it is very frustrating to have a thread closed, but let me assure you it was done so within the framework of GupShup Religion sub-forum policies. Please allow me to draw your attention to the following:
So, as you can see it is not a made up rule, and infact the decision to close the thread was based on the guidelines present for all. If you have any further questions, please feel free to PM me directly, or one of the concerned sub-section moderators. We’d be happy to assist you and answer any other questions you may have.
Happy Posting!
