From the answers I've got so far, it seems likely that ssj12 is the only mod who has read the reports for my posts and deleted them shortly afterwards as rocketpig (in Soriku's thread as well) seemed to be clueless why I was banned. Clueless in the sense of that he assumed that I got banned for a totally different reason than for the one I actually got banned for.

 Its because he doesn't want to admit that these two posts are the reason you got banned

 obviously mentioning the words Hot and Dog are disrespectful to Leo-J. (as making fun of Leo-J was the "reason" in your profile for why you were banned)

I'm going to recommend that mods sign the ban reason with their name. You have to understand though that almost everyone throws a fit when they get banned even when it is well-deserved, so it's hard to take the legitimate complaints seriously after awhile.

 Oh I do, and I am not trying to attack any mods here. I think it is the fact that so many people throw fits that makes it important to be able to trace the bans easily. It is also the reason I didn't just try spamming everyone with PMs. I think your solution would be a good one and thank you for helping.

Typically I'm not for questioning the mods, since this isn't a public forum that the community runs, but, when someone like Rol is banned for seemingly no reason, yet the likes of Leo-J get to run rampant (for example, he is given a 1 wk ban, yet he is unbanned within hours) that is just uncalled for, and begging for a decent explanation at least to Rol himself.

^ That could not have been the reason you were banned, as i have seen worse posted by worse posters on this forum. If that is the reason, over half of the users here deserve to be banned.

Exactly. I have more than 4800 posts and have never before received a warning from any mod, but two days ago I got banned instantly and nobody in the forum seems to have a clue why, except ssj12 who banned me.

Apparently I have been banned for reports on posts that are 1-2 months old. Somebody must have browsed old threads and found something he didn't like. This is what ssj12 said about the posts I have been reported for:

One was like: PS3 fans are all childish. They don't have a single bit of respect for gaming.

The other was: The PS3 is a poor excuse for gaming console.

Normally I wouldn't copypaste parts of PMs with a mod in the forum, but knowing that even the mods don't know why I have been banned, I hope this helps to speed up the process in order to get an explanation.


 ah cmon, life goes on. its not that big of a deal. you got unbanned and you are back, thats great news. so everything is fine.

you didnt miss anything in any case as dtewi has been making the 200th "whos the coolest here" and the 5 millionth KH3 to wii? threads. thats all.

 Excellent idea. I will do that from now on so everyone can admire my handiwork.
