You shouldn't have said that. You'll be getting a Warning from your masters, Spindrift and Chapman, for being anything but 100% adoring of the camera system. Step out of line again and you'll be forever branded a "troll" and barred from the inner sanctum of URC.

Whether what you said was true has no relevance. You're *not allowed* to say anything whatsoever against cameras. You know the rules perfectly well, and if the other trolls can abide by them, then so can you.
