Even The Best in the Business(tm) have bad days

[TightEnd]

Also, whenever anybody posts about rakeback etc, we get 3/4/5 people posting reguarly in the threads/PM'n the people and offering/giving them deals. People openly talk about it too, I very very much doubt that they ever get reprimanded/warned/1 month banned. "

not sure that can be denied and seems like the most relevant of his points. Also super lol if the fact he doesnt benefit is true!

You are posting with only minimal knowledge of what the mods do in these cases guys, there can be 10-15 instances a week of posts being removed, PMs sent, advice given. You don't see the removed posts, the PMs sent, the advice given...

Just for the record, I have never said that Pleno offered me anything, tried to get me to do anything, or made any improper suggestions to me.

Also for the record, I'm very disappointed that no one trusts the mods to make fair decisions.

The decision to suspend someone's account is never, ever taken lightly, it's never done without warning, (Often several warnings) and never by any one mod.

We don't want to ban anyone. Honest.

You can stick your conspiracy/cliquey forum up your arse and I gaurantee I'll not come running back to reinstate my membership.

if anyone wants to set the line on PLENO's next post i'll take the under on 29 days

[cambridgealex]

Tighty can you just clear up exactly why Pleno was banned?

you can see why everyone is a bit confused and asking all these questions. pleno has written above everything that he can think of as to why he's been banned.

i can the problem if either

-something is missing  - he's done something else to warrant the ban
-he's lied about something in that explanation
-something within the explanation is against the rules

could you clarify please?

phatomch was banned without warning or even a email stating why he was, he had to contact kev through facebook to find out why

[LeKnave]

fk me, un-ban him and chill the fk out.

[Acidmouse]

everybody knows the mods have it in for me, I was a ***** for 2 weeks along acting similarily to Caroline, I got banned and she did updates for the forum. Brilliant democracy. I don't even want to come back to your forum. I have tried helping lots of people, I have done updates for you for very little money (that people said I did well at) I have brought traffic to your forum and I make post after post on PHA, I am a super moderator on another forum and i post dozens of posts a day helping people out. I am appreciat ed there and if I WAS HALF AS APPRECIATED here then I could really be a positive member for you. You can stick your conspiracy/cliquey forum up your arse and I gaurantee I'll not come running back to reinstate my membership.

Cliffs: He brings traffic to forum but the mods hate him. He does not want to come back and you can fuk yourself.


There is life away from forums

are you a moderator tom? might be asking the obvious but it also says playboy

[millidonk]

I think the thread has gone a bit overboard, but I can see both sides of the fence, I know if i had been banned for something i didn't do/unknowingly did, i would be annoyed,  but in fairness 28 days is nothing in the grand scheme of things. (about the number of days i am drunk per month) Don't think the mods should have to explain themselves to every person who wants to get involved either.

Obviously there are terms and conditions to forums etc, but who really reads them??  hope not reading them isn't actually a forum rule else i could face the boot.

It's quite hard to prove either way.

Anyways, cant we get a vote thingy on the thread? Even if nothing comes of it, everyone loves a good vote. Diplomacy FTW.

1/3 of my lifes heros itt!

Please tell me you 3 have an afternoon planned in the oak beer garden with 15 pints and a little bit of "fun" in the sun

the reason given was posted in this thread


on page 1

"He has been banned for 28 days, so far, (following an earlier ban for a shorter period for another issue) for and I quote

"covertly using the PM service for your own commercial ends" (having received prior warnings advising him not to do this)


I think everyone is going round in circles now, several mods have spent time explaining the policies

specifics are for private contact with the member, should he so choose.

Given his explanation, you don't think it's a bit of a misunderstanding?

Quite possibly, I don't know. I'm not conducting that debate on here though. He was emailed, he can reply to that email if he chooses.

I understand that he's cross but asking for his note elsewhere to be posted on here using some of the inflammatory language it does doesn't really help. 

[cambridgealex]

I agree, it doesn't help his cause to be swearing etc. Although, maybe like he says, he doesn't care whether or not he's reinstated in which case, there's no point us fighting his corner.

How can you ban someone for using PM's when you claim you cannot read them?
