Your wrong freedom of speech is real ... however it should be clear to any one that one should interpret that as the freedom to form and spout your opinions and believes but in a way that wont conflict with any other norm law or rule. I am free to tell any one that i think Darwin was right and that the many theism's are a result of fear and outdated but that they will find out eventually, however i cant say Darwin is right and all fucktard morons who think otherwise should kill themselves and find out for themselves.

Now i think i made a pretty clean example for how to use and how not to use the freedom of speech (even though the second example almost proofs Reversed Darwinism and therefor Darwinism 😀). Any one that is able to think for themselves should be able to see the difference between the two methods of voicing my opinion and notice that while one might be offensive the other one is as neutral as any opinion could come. Even if you don't agree with my interpretation of freedom of speech any broader interpretation means i can say whatever i want any way!
 
Sounds like the internet...What's new?

By the way, I think Blizzard's Customer Support for Moon Guard server will be a plush toy called "Bob". They only want to appear as if they are doing something. So this will have little effect. Even if they do something, expect the English dictionary to get that little bigger.
 
Honestly, there are some pretty dumb/bad things said on WoW, or any other online game... but...

if you are a parent, and this is your reaction, then don't let your children play on an online game unsupervised.

Yes - parenting involves more than putting your kid in front of an xbox/computer/tv and walking away.

Its the internet, this is nothing new - you CANNOT and WILL NOT stop other people on the internet from doing what they do, but you can STOP your child from reading/going to these sites/places by SUPERVISING them.

 
A simple google search would probably reveal worse content. It is the internet after all. Well all of the kiddies are starting school again soon so hopefully most of the bad/immature players will not have the time to logon as much.
 
1. Any Adult themed activities in a public area is a Bad Idea (TM), keep it private.
2. Father complaining is not totally without merit (see #1), but more of Blizzard's Community standards, not Freedom of speech, or Nerf coating the Internet's sharp edges. A Private company can set areas it owns with whatever rules it wants. A company's lobby doesn't become a place you can do whatever you want normally in public.
3. Father could have solved the issue far easier by saying, "I don't want you playing on that server anymore. Find a different one." and then tracking son's account and any characters linked to it (dad keeps passwords).
