Those that still read the Official Warrior Forums have already seen this, but. I got slapped with a 1 week ban. The reason I was given? Creating the last @Saturday and linking a video ("What is Love?" in G Major for those who did not see). And apparently, that one thread was bad enough to get every. Single. Thread. I have ever made deleted, and also posts.
Now, this is definitely not something that I am fine with. The ban I was expecting due to the nature of my posts lately, but the reason I was banned for is completely insane. Apparently the CMs aren't fine with the fact that the community is trying to be, you know, a community. Also, it feels especially harsh considering even posts I made on my old Warrior that doesn't even exist anymore got removed. A couple is still found if you search for them, but everything else is gone. This isn't the case with Xintic, for instance, who got banned right after me for creating a new @Monday.
Kind of makes me feel like I was the worst thing to happen there since the Holocaust.
In any case, I am quite happy with the fact that people are trying to work around this, and keeps the @day threads going (or Battle Trance in case of Venetica!). Also, I was surprised people actually started immediately to get me unbanned. Thanks folks!
Now, if you excuse me, I have an E-mail or two to write (and I urge you guys to write one too, to CMfeedback-EN@blizzard.com, if you ain't happy with their moderating). Hopefully I get this ban appealed, although we might want to look into getting another forum for our little community.

As I said on Xintic's update, this is the worst moderation decision I've ever seen.
ReplyDeleteIt's perverse.
I suppose I should be comforted in the knowledge that it's not just me. Strangely, though, I'm not.
At all.
