Why were so many topics closed?

<< < (6/6)

Tea-cup:

--- Quote ---bascially, the board went down, the message i got was that the board had broken a license agreement, -> now we have a stricter rule set and Nathan won't comment why....and i know many radio/TV stations have been severally limited by the new FCC regulations so perhaps the FCC came down on the service provider for this board (obvisiously Nathan isn't if the board was shut down and now i only have 40ish megs of storage space)

FCC has nothing to do with it, poeple did break the terms of service on the other site. LM didn't. The lower uploadlimit is my work. In my opinion it's not acceptable that you can upload unlimited amounts of mb (gb). A site has a trafic and storage limit (main thing poeple broke on the other site, and again, it wasn't the board), the limit also prevents abuse.

Why Nathan suddenly got the idea for more strict rules, I don't know. Maybe he took the time to read a few topics and noticed the complains about the spam. I see it as an improvement, but I don't like that so many topics did get removed. He takes too drasic measures without taking in account if poeple here actually want it.

I give him my opinion about it and do my best to keep the board from going down or staying down. I don't think I should do more. Besides I do some administation on the board itself too, but just because the adminteam seems so unactive to me. I would rather keep it with the technical things.

Since we had gotten told that many times, Nathan has decided that we either stop LM, or we become more strict. We chose the stricter route, to try to keep LM running and still a fun place.

TOS violation was something with uploading files as far as I know.
