    If it looks like homework, then they will close it. See here for more information, http://ubuntuforums.org/index.php?page=policy

    Please review the Code of Conduct for a list of what is allowed and not allowed on these forums.

    In your case, your threads violated it in 2 places:

    Politics and Religion: These two topics have caused serious problems in the past and are now forbidden topics in the forums. Please find another venue to exercise your freedom of speech on these topics.
    and

    While we are happy to serve as a resource for hints and for asking questions when you get stuck and need a little help, the Ubuntu Forums is not a homework service. Please do not post your homework assignments expecting someone else to do it for you. Any such threads will be taken offline and warnings or infractions may be issued.
    I agree with the action taken by the moderation staff.

    Do not create another thread on this topic.

    Thanks for your answer .

    I won't create another thread.

    But I'm really suprised because first :

    This is not a homework

    Second there is no poilitic but rather govermental decisions to improve Open Source and we all want to promote OSS.

    And third :

    I posted in many ubuntu forums as ubuntu fr,de,.. Fedora forums, ...etc

    And no one of these forums have banned me for asking for help.


    Sorry but I'm really disappointed by the staff answer.

    Perhaps I haven't yet understood why.


    Any way ! I won't post and I'll stop talking about.


    thank you for your answer.

    Hi nour_al_imen,


    Normally we don't allow politics and government decision/did/do threads, as we have a very unfortunate experience with such threads and how they evolve (or should I say devolve). Some time back we did allow such threads and post but most of them turned into flamefest, bashing and Ad hominem. It was a cesspool of breeding place for trolls which spread to other parts of this forum. Daily we had complains from either trolls or normal users when we moderated these threads/posts in RC.
    Hope we have your understanding regarding our decision on this matter.

    What other forums do or did are up to them.


    regards
    A.I. Dude
