What lies? Weren't you pushing the buttons a little bit Agna? Just a little bit? I'm not defending him, but.......he's not allowed to just ban someone without the mods agreeing......I mean I see it all the time, not verbatim, but "all mods discuss and agree" on the person who is facing a ban.
Apart from the private message that I posted regarding his obvious gloating and lack of impartiality, I have already transmitted a list of undeserved infractions through bubba. Even after he posted them, they were not addressed.
Undeserved Infractions
1. Banned for pointing out a problem with the wordfilter, in that you could not discern one four-letter word from another, despite their clear differences in intensity. I was then accused of "willingly violating" the TOS, despite the fact that I had no idea that I had violated anything and the fact that I had not "substituted symbols" for vulgarities, but was merely using the same characters that the wordfilter did. Oh, the humanity!
2. Banned for flaming a sock puppet of a permanently banned user. No substantive discussion could have been pursued with an illegal sock puppet, and thus, it was a violation of the "letter of the law" rather than the "spirit of the law." I posted a thread protesting this, (since my messages to moderators were ignored), and it was then locked by some guy who named himself after a song by a drugged up country star, who posted a snide comment of no particular value. I received the ever-so-helpful advice to send a PM to a moderator, (and get ignored some more).
And when I got back most recently:
3. Infracted for a "personal attack" far more mild than many other attacks on here that allegedly do not violate the terms of service, including a suggestion by one poster that another poster anally violate herself.
4. Infracted for the same as above by the same moderator, who saw an easy chance to harm an extreme leftist whose views he personally disliked and who had a target on his back.
5. Infracted for joking that another poster was attracted to professional athletes. Really? Is that serious?
6. Infracted for posting an image of two homosexual men in their underwear in the insult thread, with the claim that it was not "PG-13." I then pointed out that such images were permitted on network television programs such as Family Guy. The moderator in question then sneered that this was a political forum, and not Family Guy. I pointed out a rather obvious flaw in her reasoning, that being that my post was not in a political thread, but in the insult thread. I received no reply.
More than that, if I was permabanned for starting a "call-out thread" for another poster, that is another instance of a moderation inconsistency. A call-out thread for me had existed for months and went on for pages and pages, and E_Pubertus_Venereal and Chubby05 had both posted in it. After my call-out thread was deleted, I pointed out the inconsistency, and EPV deleted the call-out thread that had existed for months, also deleting a list of unjustly locked threads that I had posted for Chubby05. She never responded to it. I was then apparently banned for starting the call-out thread, even though I was unaware that this was against the rules, and had not realized that it was until EPV agreed that the thread calling me out should have been deleted, and did so. It was at this point that I realized that starting call-out threads was against the rules, and yet I was still banned even though my own call-out thread had been posted and deleted prior to this.
