    So apparently UPSB "employs" some biased moderators. I was shoutbox banned today for no apparent reason, the last thing i said was a copy and paste of another member's shout but it doesn't seem that they received any retribution. So it appears I am either the victim of a prejudice moderator or a careless moderator. I'd like a reason for this ban and what I actually committed to be reprimanded so.

    Yeah its bound to happen. People are people and have their likes and dislikes.

    I heard that most of the mods hate asians.

    I think the mods are fine. Never had any problem with them so far. Do you know who did it?

    Yeah, some people can be immature and pick favorites. Im not talking about this situation directly, but just in general. But this could be one of those situations.

    I think it's just some moderators are stricter than others with rules... That and mods are humans too, sometimes we have good days, bad days, and we sometimes have bias too as much as we try to suppress them

    As for your ban, it seems you made a long copy and paste or something that expanded the shoutbox...that seems to be the reason for your ban

    Lesson here: Stop copy and pasting shouts, it's spam. You'll get warned/banned.

    yep the ban here is that you copy pasted something too much that it streched the shoutbox, not the content of the shout itself.

    its the difference between

    and

    oh i see, ok sounds reasonable

    it was really delayed then cuz if i remember when i actually got banned and when i copied that shout probably had like...an hour difference.

    you mean like, you shouted..and then an hour later you got banned?
    well..
    1. sometimes someone can screenshot the shoutbox when a rule is broken and a moderator will get to deciding the punishment later on when they see the screenshot cause there's not always a moderator online all the time
    2. moderators could look through the shoutbox history from time to time, and ban people who break rules in shouts that they see in the shoutbox history

    i remember banning jamie for posting something with innappropriate material in the shoutbox liek a couple hours after he shouted it -- i looked through the history cause it was brought to my attention on MSN when someone IMed me about it while i was away

    sooo lol, just cause a mod isnt' on when someone breaks a rule, they could still get banned for it sleep(1).gif

    tl;dr


    yeah im not really pissed at the delay, i just didn't know it was for a delayed action; thus it confused me and thus thought i was getting persecuted and thus made this rant thread.

    thus
