  1. We have moderators in Video Help to ensure all things political or religious are kept out for good reason, so I may ask why then in specific change logs of software is it allowed blatantly. I saw in Reaper 6.13 changelog yesterday that 'Black Lives Matter' is written. This is an aggressive polical movement causing mayhem(my view) and hardly peaceful. Why is this inflammatory political statement allowed even in Video Forum.

    Imagine the outcry if 'White Lives Matter too' were written instead. I even saw comments yesterday commenting about why was BLM written and they were removed. Censorship of the truth to allow an agenda. Really disappointed with this and it smacks of hypocrisy when dozens of people in the past have had comments removed for much weaker remarks and this political racist nonsense is allowed here of all places.

    For the record
    All Lives Matter!

    Forum rules do not allow for ANY political comment - even yours can be construed to be so.


    If you have issue with the inclusion of such text then the correct procedure would be to contact site admin (link on bottom of screen 'contact us')

  3. Yes you are quite right that my comments could be construed in a similar way too, depite in General Discussions asking simply why? Ah , I get it, question something innocently and with the greatest intentions and set oneself up for accusations of the same. Oldest trick in the book p.c stuff. No I shall not be contacting admin, because obviously inclusion of this text has significant meaning for whomever allowed it in the first place. No doubt the people who commented on it too(and were later removed) in Reaper section would have contacted admin. No I won't be losing sleep over this political correct garbage. Just was curious why this was allowed in VideoHelp as you say Forum does not tolerate anything political even my response.

    Ergo then they(this BLM statement and my questioning of it here) shoud then both be promptly removed should they not? Thankyou for your reply.

    Apparently "Black Lives Matter!" is the, let's say, «codename» of the latest version of Reaper.

    https://www.reaper.fm/download.php

    Too bad that the author of Reaper does not hate antifas and anti-racists, alright?

  5. In light of the above, I will be releasing a custom version of ffmpeg code named "BLM is a lie perpetrated on the American public".

    FFS.

    I think Baldrick needs to start banning stupid. And he's European, so good luck with all that paranoid right-wing BS.

    Can't just contact an admin, or even ask a harmless question. No, gotta start that first post with "All Lives Matter!". Have to get in your political shots. When called on it by DB83, you try to shift blame.

  7. The link to Reaper has at its top of page:

    #Masks4All #MasksSaveLives

    The author must have realised in his wisdom that means all lives in this crisis and relented a tad on his specific BLM hangup

    There's nothing surreptitious about what you're trying to do. Please stop.

    You have just grammatically written I have no agenda , let's be clear then that is true. Please stop what then? If I knew that this would stir up this amount of early rants I would not have posted it.

    Certain people who post expletives, rant about ' You are one of those not wearing masks ..' and then edited quickly after posting should perhaps stick to video restoration. Obviously the truth is too much for sensitive individuals who like to sugar coat life. It is pointless to even sensibly discuss these things as it always end in some fool taking offence because it does not fit in with his schema.

    I have not made Reaper. Email the developer or just avoid the software....
