Hi, my name is Rol.

Today I have an important announcement to make. The ban I received last week marked the 50th* entry in my moderation history.

Many of you probably know me as someone who analyzes the psychology of forum members, but what's also worth of note is that I am self-aware. I know that I have a reputation among many people that I get away with virtually anything here on VGC and therefore I am allegedly free to post anything I want. However, the facts clearly contradict this belief. How many VGC members do you know that have as long of a moderation history as I have? Or to make things more manageable, how many do you know that have a moderation history at least half as long as mine? You'll probably still struggle to name half a dozen correct answers.

Not sure what else to say, because this thread wasn't made to say that I have a problem with moderation. I just thought I should state the facts to clear up a common misconception, now that I've reached such a nice milestone.

*Number includes four moderations from the time before moderation histories were implemented.

I must never see the posts that get you moderated before they're removed or edited... what on earth are you saying that would yield so many violations? I've seen some fairly terrible things be said by people that went unmoderated or edited lol

I'm pretty sure I've never actually received so much as a warning; it doesn't seem like something that's encountered unless you're really looking for it. I do wonder what the odds are of you adding another tally to your 50 moderations at some point throughout this thread lol

*Edit* Actually, looking at your post count you're averaging a little over 1,000 posts per violation. When looked at from that angle your total doesn't seem THAT outrageous lol
