Hey guys

over the last 2 weeks i had 2 temp bans one after another, for very little reason, the first was saying 'no' to a new member on a flame rant and the second for advertising.

Ive been around here for years (and I mean YEARS, both in this name and my previous one), I dont post much, but what I do post is 90% valid or helpful the 'advetising' ??? oh you mean the link to prizerebel in my sig which has been there for about 2 years, so I get a temp ban after 2 years for something in my sig which was already discussed in the forums about a year ago and was agreed I could put it there since it isnt advertising this points to me its obviously a new moderator, otherwise it doesnt make sense, theres people flaming and ranting and racism and name calling all over and I get two temp bans in a 2 week period 1 for saying 'no' to a new member and the other for an issue which was raised and sorted out a year ago.

so my question is who was it? was that really nessessary?

to be honest I have an idea its a new mod with a personal beef against me, if I'm correct and you do have a problem with me I suggest you take it up with me via msn/steam etc etc instead of taking it out on me here by temp banning, its not professional.

Both of your temp bans came from different people, so I don't think anyone has got any personal beef with you...

I guess if you follow the rules then you won't have any further probs Smile

I do follow the rules Horror and Ive been around here alot longer than most. The 'no' thing is silly and the advertising thing is NOT advertising and it was discussed and resolved a year ago if not more.

So....its a mystery then. Bad form if you ask me.

Hey, you're not the only one temp banned without a valid reason. It really annoys me that you don't get to know who banned you, there's no way to know if you put somebody in his/her place in a discussion and you were banned out of spite (happened). Cowards the bunch of them (anonymous modding is lame).

Im pretty sure we've all been banned once for something stupid that a PM from a Mod saying to not do that would have settle everything.

My last Ban was the funniest i got so far

I got banned for a day without any reason given, which was a bit lame... Not showing the mod's name is fine by me, but it would be nice to know what the offense was so you'd know not to do it again.

when Epsilon and Luzifer came on board as mods
people here started to get banned for the most silliest reasons ever
you even can't talk about games/movies anymore, only about game mechanic/glitches or shitty actors, or girly stuff (example: mod put in spoilers tab a user comment about a monster attack that was shown 20 times allready in trailers for this game, and gave a warning)
its like this forum started slowly to alienate people then creating a movie/game loving community



SINGLE-CELLED ASEXUALLY REPRODUCTIVE ORGANISMS RULE.
I agree. It's no big deal. Animal, mineral or vegetable; I'll DO anything TO anything.

Guys dont forget this forum is one of the few left where you can talk freely about warez with mostly intelligent members. Its a permanent grey-zone and laws worldwide get more problematic every year. Lets not start a witch-hunt for mods, they just do their best to keep this forum running, even when they are pissed sometimes. Its just human. Go out and see the other leet forums, you will quickly see it could be much worse Wink

It is human to make mistakes and another thing, the few active mods here are overloaded with work.
But maybe someone who gets perm or temp banned should have the right for an appeal.
That should be handled discretely behind closed doors.

you've been banned before for using racist terms, so no a PM doesn't always work.

But something can sound racist for one and usual slang for others. Like the P word, everyones is using it here. And also, you're not an angel here either, im pretty sure you're not far from holding the temp ban record Laughing

I see no issues with your ban. You were temp banned for racism. It's hardly the first time you've done it, and you know it's against the rules.

Anyway, this thread has no value except for slagging off the mods here. Without us, this place would be a lot shittier, you know that as well as I do.

So get over it and move on.

Just to add to what has been said, if you have any major beef then you can contact one of the mods directly or Rinze and it will be dealt with. However, if the response is "there is no problem" then please just accept that as the case. Sometimes mods make mistakes, sometimes users do the same. The mods are here to help keep the place running and if we didn't exist I promise you these forums would be hell and no one would be able to talk with any freedom (because the place would be over run with morons, trolls and requesters).

If you do feel you've been harshly dealt with I'm always open to looking into things. I've done it for people before and I'll do my best to provide at least some kind of answer.

Any further comments should be sent, as said above, directly to a mod / admin.

MUCH LOVE PEOPLE! Smile

I was the one who banned you on the 10th.

It was not just for "saying 'no' to a new member", but the way you did it. You called attention to his newness, which serves only to create an atmosphere hostile to new members. I don't want such an atmosphere on this site. Your arguments don't become more valid the more posts you have or the longer you've been registered, so there is no need to dismiss someone's arguments by mentioning a low post count, it jsut makes you look like you're trolling. Added to that: some of your other posts in that thread were also of very low quality, for me that was enough reason to ban you.
