Sony once again attacks Freedom Posted by Jeff

I just heard that Sony Online Entertainment has started censoring (by deletion) any negative comments about the online game "Star Wars Galaxies" from their forums. Yet another move towards the dark side by the evil empire.

This started because Sony decided to revamp the game to eliminate most of the reading, wandering, and learning, and to make the game more like the movies instead of something creative.

I used to have a "boss" (the work arrangement was barely even legal, hence the quotes) who worked under the same modus operandi). He believed he could herd users like cattle and force them to do his bidding, which was usually pointless, extremely stupid bidding.

Dumbing down things is rarely ever a good way to attract a wider audience. All it does is bore people and drive them away. But again, the censorship is the point here. People were trying to post comments to suggest ways to improve the game, and they would delete any one that mentioned anything negative.
