Andy - you're wrong - Freedom of Speech and Censorship technically do not apply here. If the government censors your posts, then yes, that would be a violation of Free Speech and also Censorship. But there's no government involvement here. Do I agree with what TIM has allegedly done? If it's true, not really. But I do think others have a point? A lot of sites are really pissy about anyone putting a link to another website on their message boards - even if it is relevant to the conversation (it doesn't sound like yours were...). I'm sure the moderators don't have time to go through all messages to look for this sort of stuff, so they just blanket delete, perhaps automatically, anything without a non-TIM url. Just repost your comments without weblinks.
A good percentage of Machomoe videos are from TIM, by the way.
