people often time mistaken freedom of speech to equate to saying anything they want.  There are limits

Well, as long as you think you have a moral highground on everyone frank. Limiting free speech because YOU think something is wrong is ignorant as fuck.

Sounds much like the arguments Redditors were making, in that freedom of speech gave them the right to post child pornography on Reddit and it was fascism to expect their administrators to actually.. remove child porn.  Let alone report them to the FBI like they should.  Not surprised that you are on the side of hate crime and kiddie porn though.

Maybe you have some other links to unfunny white trash comedians to post your talking points for you?

So there's a user that chose "rainbow" as nickname, complaining about the abusive use of the word "my old friend" ingame ?

Tbh, the word has less to do with homosexuality than with a cowardly behaviour.

Rainbow is my in game name.  It depends on the context in which it was used.  I'm not opposed to the word in 99% of situations becuse I know what the intent is.  Even though I still disagree with it I let it go.

How the fuck are you an admin making baseless accusations like that? Everything you are talking about is a serious crime. Calling you a homo over the internet is not. Stop using hyperbole and shitting analogies to argue your shit point.

Sigh... if someone calls you a my old friend it's not his intention to offend gay people, most of the time people are not even serious if they say that. Really, if you kill someone in a "my old friendgy" way and he insults you in spec chat afterwards it should make you smile. :D

Accusing me of supporting child porn isn't so much offensive as it is an Accusation, not to mention as an admin you take responsibility to be mature. Everyone has the right to be offended and defend themselves. I don't think it should be bannable though. If it is truly offensive the community will shun the offender anyways.

Saying just kidding in any situation always erases the insult. 
E.G.
Did you just get your hair cut?  I hope you didn't pay for that thing... JUST KIDDING...
You sir, do not know how to kid properly.

I got a strange feeling this might involve homosexuals.

Pop culture references

Sieg heil mein führer, Anders Brejvik was right; we should all get a personal taiwanese underage sexslave, they were born for "basement duty".

I fucked your mother/sister/dog.

Legalize child pornography.

The above is an analogy of a bog-standard forum post on the internet.

I'm sorry, but I think you're simply in the wrong place :(

Sadly we're at a point where you get in trouble for using racial slurs but not for using the word my old friend. In my opinion, if you get in trouble for using racist words, then you should get in trouble for using that word also. Some admins use it too. CHAOS loves that word :P

The term my old friend is such a broad term and has several different meanings and feelings behind it, while most racial epithets do not.  And steve hughes said it best, it really is subjective.

And there is no such thing as free speech on a gaming server, the owner of it has every right to regulate it in whatever way he wishes. If chadz wants to ban people for saying "pudding", there is nothing stopping him.

With that said, there is nothing stopping you from boycotting the server and seeking out other pudding-friendly alternatives.
"As you gaze upon the cross, and long for conformity to him, be not weary or fearful because you cannot express in words what you seek. Ask him to plant the cross in your heart. Believe in him, the crucified and now living one, to dwell within you, and breathe his own mind there."
