I request a permaban for sega4life, he's not a mod anymore, but I won't sleep well until I see him going down. He's the reason I have a warning in my mod history....and because my sig was too large.

Until my demands are fulfil all mods are biased.

I'm actually pretty happy with the mods, very rarely I see them doing bans when I honestly thought people didn't deserve them.

So there's been a few threads the past couple days about people complaining against bans, and this thread has re-activated. I wonder why that is?

Anyway, my position is no different to what it was a month ago, or a year ago, or when I joined. I'm fairly certain that's well-known now.

Most of the people that  complain about bans don't want to admit thet they were trolling, flaming, spamming or whatever..  They take the easy  route and blame the mods for everything. I wish those people would start acting like adults and admit that they did something wrong.

Youve just been too naughty since you came back. 14 moderations since 2013 is quite something



                            

I'm pretty happy with the mods; I don't think I've seen any unreasonable actions



 Been away for a bit, but sneaking back in.

Gaming on: PS4, PC, 3DS. Got a Switch! Mainly to play Smash

I think they are doing a fine job. Many people might complain about them being too harsh, or not harsh enough, but every forum has complaints about moderators. And its usually the people that violate the rules often that complain the most.
To be honest, I think they need to become more strict. I mean, there should be a limit to the number of moderation's a user can get in 1 year before they deserve a permaban. We constantly see the same users being banned every few days/ weeks. This wouldn't be a problem if the moderators would permaban those users after a certain number of violations. It will make both ours and the moderators lives much better if we get rid of disruptive users instead of letting them continue their disorderly conduct. And usually those users return after their ban is over and continue making annoying posts. Just look at Dallas. He was banned multiple times. If the mods had banned him earlier, then we wouldn't have to deal with his annoying comments and threads for years.
