[Appeal] for warning in CDT

Postby The United Neptumousian Empire » Fri Jul 03, 2015 1:11 pm

I don't believe that being issued a pic spam warning for posting a single reaction image is fair, when it's an action I've seen hundreds of times and have never seen anyone else moderated for it.

You were warned for spam AND picspam. It's one warning. Even if we took off the picspam part, you still spammed. Appeal denied.

I've warned for it many, many times before. Feel free to point out other abusers, and I'll warn them as well.

If I may. viewtopic.php?f=16&t=345197&hilit=picspam

Even thought the person who started it was deleted, there was a user who participated. I don't know if it deserves another look.

Moderator decisions are judgement calls. Tsaraine and I appear to have a different judgement basis than Dread Lady Nathicana on this topic.

Can I ask for clarification on the rules then?

I was under the impression that spam was a repeated offence, not just a single off topic post, or a single image. What are the actual rules regarding this?

Did it not die out, as I had hoped, within a few posts? Was it continued even after reported? If so, I wholeheartedly agree it was spam, pointless, and ought to have been called out. Bringing this up a month or what not later is a bit pointless. It isn't quite the same thing then, is it? Context does tend to be key. And it is a rare day when I am being called out as being less inclined to handing out a warning than another mod. So. If they have opted to state that you spammed along with the picspam, I support them. Simple as.

Spamming and picspam have been, and always will be, fairly subjective. Best way to avoid getting called on it?

Don't do it.

Sorry, I just thought it could use another look is all. Doesn't matter anymore. Again, sorry for your time!
