It was censored because it was creative. And their rules only allow hard 
facts. (Although they also censored my birthdate which IS a fact). As I 
told you my bio is part of my work so it's a mixture of a creative intro 
(a metaphor telling a lot about me as a person and about the rest of my 
work) and hard facts about my life. It says that I was born on planet 
Venus which I think isn't illegal or offensive or hurting anyone's 
feelings nor a strange form of advertising.
Although I do not completely understand why they censor creativity on a 
site for music, musicians and listeners, I understand that I broke their 
rules.
What I do not understand is why they refuse to delete the censored 
version. It's a creative text so I own the copyrights and they break the 
law by using it.

> Are you mad that your Bio was censored and not the Nazi white power 
> content? 
I confess that I was mad that they kept using the censored bio although 
I asked them to remove it. But it is more than just a personal thing. 
It's confusing that they censor harmless statements like mine while 
defending all that racist and nationalist content.

Another question......... the content of these pages is illegal in 
Austria and Germany. But they can be viewed in these countries. Hm....

Anyway, I am glad that there ARE people that care.

Thanks and best,
maru
