Mods abusing their power
    #5904940 - 07/27/06 10:51 AM (17 years, 6 months ago)

This been on Overgrow before it went down.
Few mods had some personal differences with some posters, so what they did they looked at all thier posts day after day and tried to pin ban points on their asses, for usless shit, and really , rules are tricky things its all a rule of thumb, you have to use your judgment to make a decision to ban someone or not.

So these things happen, someone says somehting without intending to harm anything or anyone and just becuase its wrong according to the books they ban their ass.

Same thing today in the pub, not breaking any rules, just saying something that turned out to be inapropriate. And get banned for it for 12 days!

I already made a support ticket about this. Now i am makint this post.

The reason that i got banned today is not becuase of that slightly out place remark about wishing to have studies done and find a sponsor who could provide me with some things. The reaosn i got banned is becuase blinkidiot has same "differences" with me like thos mods had at OG.

You should have seen what he said to me in OTD. I dont even know that guy but i made a post about cherry bomp so he got pissed at me and banned me. Haha.

So what are you going to do about this? Are you going to let this go on?

From what I can tell it was reduced to 3 days forum temp ban...I must have been away while all of that went down.

> So what are you going to do about this?

Absolutely nothing. You have no idea what goes on behind the scenes here. The moderators discussed your ban, on their own, without admin intervention. As a group, they decided that the original 12-day ban was excessive and reduced it to a 3-day ban.

Something to consider... Perhaps if you had problems on other sites with mods, and you are having trouble here with mods, the problem lies with you and not with the mods at the various sites.

> Are you going to let this go on?

I see no problem to fix. Perhaps one of the admins will see things differently, but I wouldn't hold my breath if I were you.

People often laugh at rating systems by their peers. However in most cases it certainly shows us a lot about an individual.

Dude have you ever asked why people dont like you, that so many rate you a 1 shroom?

Like Seuss said, if you keep getting banned, why not examine yourself instead of always blaming everyone else.

Dude, i dont care about what your cronies with 50,000 posts give me 1 shroom ratings. Really, no offence. There like bunch of dumpster flies, all flowed and covered me with their shit.

I always say in situations like this you piss one fly off you piss them all off so you get all these ratings.

Its pathetic.

Really, what i did in that post, i made a decent post about a decent subject, i went on speaking about this and that, i didnt even think about it really i certanly didnt intend to break any rules i just spoke what was on my imagination, you know, it would be nice to do this to have that. I good mod would edit the post and then PM me and tell me its not appropriate to say that.

There's a special smiley for threads like this :bitch:

A 12 day ban from the Pub?  I've been permabanned several times and the last time the Admins locked this account it was for seven months.

This thread should be locked and you should be banned site wide for a week.

You love to run your mouth about that. You were permabanned for a reason. For constantly breaking the rules. If you think that's a great thing that you break Shroomery rules all the time, then whatever.
