Why was I banned?
WTF is with this place? You can no longer speak your mind here? Which one of the 30 mods banned me. The least the coward could do was message me with why and who decided.
Enjoy your power. |

There are some uhm....questionable...mods on these forums |
Re: Why was I banned?
coming back after being banned is ground for permanent banning, IIRC.

Re: Why was I banned?
gabby,
Of your 1600 posts, how many do you think were poker strategy related? |
Re: Why was I banned?
I wasn't the one who banned you, but us mods can now leave notes about why someone was banned for other mods to see. You were banned for bypassing the language filter, and for being a "class A douchebag."

Re: Why was I banned?
The douchebag sentiment was just lumped on top of the primary offense, bypassing the filter, for other mods to get a chuckle at if they investigate. And, actually, it appears that the violation was on a word that was allowed by the filter rather than bypassing it deliberately. I believe OP's account has been unbanned. I think I'll drop Mat a note about the word, though.

Re: Why was I banned?
haha, no, the funny part of it was that gabyyyy circumvented the censor to write fuckers without the s, while you can write fuckers with the s, with a modicum of creativity in your sentence construction. still though, mat should probably get on fixing fuckers.

Re: Why was I banned?
good point. From now on I think im gunna start calling people "class B douchebag"
|
Re: Why was I banned?
You know those secret notes I mentioned that are only visible to moderators? Well, we've had some discussion going on in the secret mod forum (again, only visible to mods). It's been decided that we need to classify all posters according to their level of douche-ness. Each mod has been charged with going through their forum and classifying their constituency on a scale of A-F. This makes it easier for the mods in other forums to identify the grade A "douchebag" posters and shun them, and to welcome the grade F "not really a douche" posters. There has been some discussion about how long a poster is allowed to sit at grade A status before being banned, but at this point that mechanism hasn't been implemented in the software. The Zoo's own Mike Haven was appointed by Mat to be the Head Doucheologist, much to the chagrin of Commodus. All disputes over a particular poster's grade (for posters with multiple forums they frequent) are settled by him.

Re: Why was I banned?
Don't worry, CORed. There was no argument over your grading.

Re: Why was I banned?
So basically it goes something like this:
Class A Douche: Matusow : : : : Class F Douche (not really a douche at all): Barry Greenstein Have I got the gist of this right? |

Re: Why was I banned?
Some, like yourself, go straight to the top of the list for grading, based on the content of their posts.
Others, like Barry Greenstein, will be dealt with when we get down to grading F's. |
Re: Why was I banned?
All settled.
I am a full IT again. |
Re: Why was I banned?
Looks like you've improved a bit as well:
user: gabyyyyy notes: grade A- douchebag |

Re: Why was I banned?
I think that the Mods have shown very poor taste and a lack of professionalism in the manner they have posted here. The Mods should always maintain a level of decorum that demands the respect of the other posters. When their posts become as child'ish as they have here, respect is the last thing I would bestow upon any of them.
