For any Maddox Follower, this will be no surprise, But if you ahve not visited his site in awhile, Some Group called "Mothers Againts MAddox" are trying to shut down his site, an now his is more pissed then ever, and i am frustrated beacsue it is run by ignorant stupid people (must retain language becasue this is a familly forum) who probly also think that Video Games Cause Violence...


The Article

M.A.M.

Raven Guardia
so are you for the shut down or against it?

silver_tears
I'm sorry but I've never liked Maddox, sure he has some funny stuff on there, but I think most of his fans are those who are just too spineless to go against the norm, and just follow him because others do erm

However I don't really care whether he stays or goes, I read his stuff occasionally, but I find him to be very discriminatory.

Raven Guardia
I heard of him, but never really talked to him at all or read anything he posted...so I dont know what he is like.

silver_tears
laughing out loud You don't talk to him, he just writes articles occasionally about all that is wrong in the world no expression

Crash Overload
i Am totally against shutting him down, becasue you see, people like you Silver (no offence) do not realize AT ALL that all he says is a joke, you think that everything he says is serious and that he really means it, sure he means every word he says in some of his articles, but please people, can't you take a joke? Thats why its fun reading his hate mail. People don't realize its humour...

Darth Revan
Maddox is a damn funny guy... This is just ****ing ridiculous. It's almost scary how this company can block people from reading his site... Ever heard of the Bill of Rights, folks?

Crash Overload
And i don't follow him beacsue others do... I read his stuff beacsue its funny. I mean come on, its funny for some, and if yuo don't like it, just don't read it, as Simple as that.

Raven Guardia
I sense a debate coming on.

silver_tears
I did say most for one stick out tongue
And I don't encourage the shutting him down part, but sometimes he's kinda obnoxious but whatever, like I said I read some of his stuff, and some is right on, but some of his stuff pisses me off, and yes it's a joke but even so.

Crash Overload
EXCELLENT POINT. Suprised he did not bring that up, and there is no more nutral zone then the internet, its like the ultimate soapbox.

(people used to stand on soapbxes, as they are off the nations ground and could speak freely, the same thing is down using ladders now a days)

Neutral as in, Misspel Disney World and you end up on Hanky Panky College

Crash Overload
Sweet! Debate, I Love Contraversy. big grin

Raven Guardia
well, its a little hard to write something without making someone up set or someone agree. no matter what there will always be someone there to agree and somethere not to agree. if people are dumb enough to follow him and not see what he says is a joke thats their loss and they will find the truth out the hard way. as for the people who do know its a joke their ahead of the game and there for can not fall victim to his jokes.

Crash Overload
I Disagree.





















(Oh come on, that was just to good to pass...)

Darth Revan
It's not the "Mothers Against Maddox" thing that bothers me, it's the fact that this company can block people from seeing his site because they find it "offensive or shocking, but not violent or frightening". Obviously not everybody will get it, some people will take it seriously, some people will disagree with him (he has a hate mail page if you haven't seen it), that's a given. But that doesn't give them the right to demand that it be taken off the web.

MC Mike
Okay, the interent is ruled by stupid-ass soccer moms. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Maddox is okay, but banning Maddox is bull****, a whole lot of bull****.

Crash Overload
No Even Worst, Its Bush-Sh!t.

silver_tears
But people hire them to perform just that task, so it's not actually them who might find it so, like schools hire them for their computer classes no, so they are just doing their job....

MC Mike
I don't know if that's a joke, but you're right in some ways. It's like a sort of Bush Administration except on the internet. stick out tongue

MC Mike
Oh and on a side note that's the only site my friend goes on when we have computer lab and extra time. stick out tongue And our school has websense. erm

Crash Overload
Yes, And Bush Was ONLY doing his job by Attacking Iraq...


but lets not go into that, i don't want this thread locked...

silver_tears
Two completely different things there roll eyes (sarcastic)

People pay them to block the sites, a customer is a customer, it doesnt matter their personal opinion of the site, they have a job to do so they do it, simple as that.

MC Mike
I say we petition against MAM. stick out tongue

Crash Overload
GREAT IDEA, okay, reach me on MSN or somthing, And I will get started on the website, seriously, itsa great idea!

silver_tears
Little bit of trivia for you, Stewie says sprinkles not sparkles smart

Crash Overload
WORNG! Stewie says Sprinkle! stick out tongue

BackFire
I read that article last night, and I checked out that petition as well, some of the signatures are hilariously stupid, but hilarious, none the less.

I can't believe there's an actual group who's sole purpose is to take down a website with some foul language and harsh ideas. It's silly.. It's also never going to happen, but I guess they don't realize that.

Anywho, I love maddox, he's a very intelegent and funny man. His articles are gold, it's nice to see someone with such integrity getting so famous off of something like a website, which has been promoted entirely by word of mouth. Like him or hate him, that's a huge accomplishment and speaks volumes about his skill as a writer.

Tex
Maddox like totally rocks my Tofu!

If you dont like his site, dont visit.
But dont try to prevent other people from having the opportunity too! hitler

Those signatures are hilarious!

"DENTAL PLAN! LISA NEEDS BRACES! DENTAL PLAN! LISA NEEDS BRACES" laughing out loud

BackFire
Haha, yeah. I'll bet now that the petition has gone nuts they'll just shut it down. Looks like they'll have to actually do some parenting now and actually moniter what their kids look at on the internet, what a world.

MC Mike
It's just like when that kid who made Real Ultimate Power .net was sent to court, won, and supposedly took a shit on the courtroom floor before leaving. messed

People With A Sense Of Humour Against MAM

(P.W.A.S.O.H.A.M.)(P.Was Oh Am)

The Reaction Of Beth Robbins towards The Maddox's Site is Overreaction. What People do not seem to get, is that Maddox's material is humour, and should be read lightly, and not seriously. Much Worst Material is written in certain <a href=htp://www.deadjournal.com>Dead Journals</a>.

The Internet is a giant soapbox of sorts, if you will. And An Organisation such as MAM is a direct attacked against the first amendment, the right of speech and self expresion.

If a perant finds content in a websie offensive, then it is up to them to add tht website to there own filter, or just not look at it, as some people might apriciate it. Such as Playboy, back when it first started, it created a huge opening for women, as payed waitresses, with striked rules they ahd to follow. Sure Now it is pornography, yet the website <i>And Magazine and Channel</I> is still up and running.

BackFire
I don't see the connection between a guy who writes satirical articles and a guy who took a dump on a courtroom floor

MC Mike
laughing out loud Well they're both trying to be taken off the net by moms. erm

BackFire
Ah, gotcha.

MC Mike

the thing you gotta remember is that Maddox doesn't feel THAT strongly about what he's saying. If he were to write "I hope all goths die" he doesn't MEAN it at all, he's just trying to make people laugh. Unfortunately, he WILL offend goths, but that's life erm
