Gamefaqs is owned by CBS. It's not like some randomly created forum your buddies made using V Bulliten. They are a business, owned, operated, and maintained by CNET. Mods are just volunteers. Even if it was some 'randomly created forum your buddies made', they can still do whatever they want. You're joining their forum, therefore agreeing to their (or the site's) terms and rules. I don't see anywhere in their terms and rules "You cannot have an opinion on the moderators or administrators of GameFAQs. If you do, you will be suspended and possibly banned."

AKA: If you have an opinion, we will suspend and/or ban your account. Not at all. If so there wouldn't be a single person here or anywhere. With an attitude like that though, it doesn't surprise me why you've been banned from 27 sites.

Freedom of speech was fine until idiots started forming opinions.

Clearly the only correct opinion is the SNITSKY opinion.

I voted 'Sky.
I used to be on Gamefaqs, and everyone was just an bunghole. I asked for help about getting a system link 360 connection to work and the noobs just put crap like "yawn" or something to get their five seconds of internet fame. Then one time, I asked about how much a person gets charged for 360 repair after I waited 20 minutes on the phone and had a conversation with the agent to send my stuff back for another 20. There was nothing mentioned about charge, and I was worried I was gonna get pwned with a bill. So I try asking the nice little guys at Gamefaqs how much it would cost if it was gonna cost anything at all. Instead of answering my question, they just said "WELL Y DONT U CALL UP CRAPPY ACCENT LADY AND ASK HER?"
That whole forum system is just a big funnyman contest for kids with no lives. Sorry for that minirant on Gamefaqs... now the mods... boy they are bungholes.
One time I was posting about how The Killers should have DLC in the game Rockband, and I said something about how people I know think they are gay (which, if you search "The killers gay" on google, a lot of things come up). I got modded and docked "karma" and a whole "level" or whatever for dropping the G-word. I tried to send a message to a mod and they upheld it. He said he searched and saw nothing on the internet about The Killers being gay (epic lie) and upheld my punishment. Since that ****, this is the only forum I seriously deal with anymore.

What does Snitsky have to do with anything?
Well that is stupid that they banned you but they are probably just obese 40 year old men still living in their mom's basement so don't feel too bad. They need to feel better sometime..

Websites are privately owned and are not regulated by the United States Government.
Unfortunately for you, you don't have a "right" to do anything on their website. They can ALLOW you to do things, but you still have no legal 'rights' on a website. They can ban you for anything they want -- they don't need a reason at all.

Finally, somebody rants on GameFAQs! I would've, but I didn't have the guts.

Gamefaqs is full of bungholes, like Enderson previously mentioned. If you join you can pretty much guarantee that nobody will help you unless you are 'well known'. That's why I joined, asked a question, everyone gave me poop, so I spammed the out of it and that was it. Just as well anyways, that gave me a chance to join many other forums like Gamefaqs where the members actually gave a crap.

Swearing should be allowed, everyone has heard it before be realistic. If someone uses it in a hateful manner..... boot them. But "this is bullpoop" Come on. It's the internet... I think everyone has seen these horrid words before.

They can ALLOW you to do things, but you still have no legal 'rights' on a website. They can ban you for anything they want -- they don't need a reason at all. Exactly. People think they can do whatever they want on someone else's website without recourse and when there is actual recourse they cry "What about my Freedom of Speech?". It's just like if someone was visiting someone's home and said something offensive or whatever and then they got kicked out of the house for it. The fact is everyone is a guest here and at other forums. We allow you to come here and visit us as long as you play by the rules and conduct yourself decent, and do not start trouble. If we see this and at our discretion, or what ever the reason may be, we have the right to tell you to get out for a week or to get out and never come back. This is the way it is at any serious forum, you have to play by there rules and if you disagree, simply don't sign up in the first place. JS
