Quora Hates Free Speech

By Gregory Smith

This is the second time I’ve gotten banned from Quora, and they haven’t told me why.

This is what they told me:

Hi Gregory,

Thank you for writing in. You were banned for one or more violations of Quora’s policies. Please visit the following link to learn more about our policies: http://www.quora.com/Quora-Policies-and-Guidelines/How-do-Quora-admins-make-decisions-about-edit-blocks-and-bans-How-does-someone-appeal-this-decision.

This decision is final, and we will not be able to reinstate your account. This means that you will no longer be able to use Quora.

We thank you for your understanding.

Best,

So I did a little digging, apparently Quora has a “Be Nice” policy.

Be Nice, Be Respectful. On Quora, people should (1) not make attacks or otherwise disparage other users or their content, (2) be respectful and considerate, and assume that other people on the site are also trying to make it a great resource, (3) respect opposing or differing opinions, beliefs and conclusions, (4) try to listen to and understand others you may disagree with, (5), avoid profane, offensive, and sex-related language when possible, and (6) encourage others on the site to also be welcoming and respectful.
