More Fallen Soldiers

It has recently come to my attention that two more Avatar members have been suspended.

Daveshan posted a pic about Viacom, and famed member Spacerac quoted it, the Mods believed this to be a huge offense and suspended both of them. Spacerac for 3 days, I'm not sure how much for Dave though.

Here is what Spacerac has to say on the situation:

So as you can see, I got suspended for posting an overly large image. I didn't post just an image. The current discussion in that thread was Zutara evidence videos on youtube being flagged as private. We were discussing Viacom, and DaveshanfromGMU posted that picture made of win. We were on topic. We were discussing ships. tv.com decided that picture was huge, however. Huge and/or disruptive. . At least I can be an Autobot a little longer.

I think the real reason they deleted it may have been that the picture insulted Viacom, and Viacom's buying CNET, so a new unsaid rule is "Do not insult Viacom." We need to see a few more Viacom related posts deleted before we know for certain, though.

Comments from DaveshanfromGMU were not available at time of blog.

That wasn't fair to suspend them. They should be able to say whatever they want about Viacom.

this is ridiculous. Freedom of speech people! what is tv.com suddenly the censorship tyrant?! Grrr. Btw: What exactly is this Avatar Refuge, and how does one access it?

Too bad you can't add yourself to your list of fallen soldiers.
