| ClassicGamingWizzz said: Vgchartz still have a problem that probably will never be resolved probably. There is a particular fanbase of a certain brand here that if you say something negative about that brand they gang and start mass reporting you, when this hapens you better believe the mods that like that certain brand and have friends from that fanbase will ban you and are capable of inventing a reason just to write some shit on the ban note. |
Well, this is a whole bunch of wrong.
a) You cannot see the reports. I can confirm 100% that each fanbase is as bad as the others when it comes to this "mass reporting" when someone says something even slightly controversial.
b) There is a reason why we have both moderator chat and why the head mods can seive through old reports and see who handled them. If someone is abusing the power they have, we *do* crack down on it and we *do* take the proper action required. It's one of the reasons why moderators have been fired from the job in the past and it's one of the reasons why we choose members of the site from various fanbases.
As for John2290? I'm locking this thread but I'll reply to your OP.

Your last 3 bans were for a mixture of different reasons, all of which are covered by our guidelines on the Forum Rules page.
Ban number 1 - You called RolStoppable an asshole. I'm not sure why you think this is trivial. Check Rule 13.
Ban number 2 - You were baiting the Xbox fanbase on this forum. Instead of offering something constructive to the thread, you simply attacked people and called them names. This ban was also put forward due to your history in previous months where you were again moderated for your comments towards members of our Xbox community. Check Rule 10 and Rule 13. For the progression based on your previous moderation, check Rule 1.
Ban number 3 - This is the most recent one and again, it's right there in our Forum Rules page under Rule 3. Your thread title included inappropriate language and was arguably a deceptive look to lure users in. This wasn't your first moderation for breaking our thread creation rules, so you were moderated appropriately.
I could post a bunch more of your moderated posts or even pick out several other posts from your history that were on the fence, but I'll just save some time and tell you (and others here) directly that your main problem is refusing to actually pay any attention to our warnings, our moderation notes or our rule set.
And furthermore, this thread violates Rule 18.
