And I agree there, criticism is part of the process after all. Though, as I stated, multiple times. The work is free, it is not paid for. The standards do not apply as the same. If the work was paid for, then naturally, reviews are mandatory, and the author has no control over this in the least. This is one of the reasons why it is better to ignore it. Now onto the next point, these sites are free. More often than not, the users aren’t here to make a profit. A lot of them simply wishes to just write, and have somewhere to put it. Similarly, much like social media. If you do something offensive, no matter what it is really. If it is in some form of violation, a ban is a ban. Whether this is against a specific person, or a group, etc.
Since the work is free, it has a lot of more flexibility than one that is not. Along this line, if they choose to ban an individual, then that is that. It works both ways. While I do not agree with the method, I also cannot complain. This is due to the fact that the work is free. There is another old saying. You get what you pay for. The work is free, so as a result, gotta also expect some more unwelcoming forms of barring. With this being stated, there is nothing to complain about. Deal with it, don’t say anything at all, it is as simple as that. Gotta also realize, that words have consequence. Freedom to speak, yes, but not freedom to the consequences of your words. If those words lead to a ban, well, you had the right to say it, but you don’t have the right to reject it. This is another reason why I say, be weary of your words. What happens as a result, is solely on the fault of the person who did so.
