Not if done polietly and without malice. Mainly, I have seen that it prevents abuse and harrasment. Now each server has it's own tone which is laid down by the server admins and enforced by the DMs. If you wish to play on a particular server you have to abide by these rules as they are there to protect both players and service providers. Some are actual legal obligations and others are common etiquette. It is not a democracy, it is not a human right, it is a free service.
You can be refused service based on your behaviour in any establishment in the free world (even the good old U.S.A) for much less than the good people at metalforge put up with so wear your shirt, keep your shoes on, and keep a civil tongue in your head.

You must not be looking well enough. Hurding users is harrasment. I don't see what being polite has to do with it. The I politely muzzle you. Your being politely muzzled because your politely using shout. Your being politely anoyed.
IS Crossfire Truly under DM repression? OR is it that people high on chat and bought heavily into it abuse people who are not into chat, and DMs are more touchy because of it?
This is big question.

You seem to be really bought into shades of grey. It is not black and white, it is red, green, blue. After all, there are three different flame wars and grievances.

So, you now admit that it is more then two yes/no questions?

True, but because many of our high leveled chars and items are on metalforge, and the crowd on Cat2 are not exactly "friendly", I think many wont just yet switch over to cat2. That is, unless, Leaf goes nuts and pks everyone on the server at least 9 times.
