the thing is, you have freedom of speech, but that doesnt mean you're not free from the consequences of the terms and rules you agreed upon when you joined the forum ,
its a private entity, I can remove what goes against the forum rules.
I have never outright banned a legitimate member for random post simply because i did not like said post. I have and will outright ban spammers, sock accounts etc. there is a difference.
There is a system in place that is post deletion, warnings, discourage user feature, than banning
so you have an entire line up of chances.
if you feel like mods are impartial its usually due to lack of understanding what the rules are.
Oftentimes users will get mad they cannot tell someone to fuck themselves and claims that's freedom of speech when it is in fact a violation of the rules, and not biased moderation either.
No one is banning someone outright over saying what they think, unless it is a death threat, doxxing or serious issue.
