Someone seems to be labelling someone a Nazi, and associating them with anti-Semitism and genocide, based on the false idea that discussing the Nazis is against the rules on this forum (which may count as using mods as a weapon)- linked is perhaps one of the more colourful posts.

Also, copycat thread.

That's it, report the dissenter to the secret police. Never heard that one before.

Freisharf, I please as you to stop the flaming. It'll get you nothing but a ban, and possibly a DEAT. Please stop. Sorry for spamming moderation, won't do it again.

Now I'm not a frequent customer of Moderation, but... Please? He was vaguely funny for the first few posts of the thread, but this doesn't make any sense any more.

viewtopic.php?f=20&t=83889&p=4102155#p4102155

Not that the thread itself (or the "discussion" in it) would be that serious or anything, but this gets in the way of that too.

I'm not usually the one to request mod intervention, but this guy consistently breaks the rules and continues to do so even after having been notified of it.

If this is actionable then really it's no loss to be DOS.

Seriously, how is that actionable

Some folks just can't resist commenting where their comments are not only unhelpful but unwanted. *** Warned *** for spamming in Moderation.

Sharf can hold whatever illusions he likes, so long as he doesn't break the rules when posting. A sad attempt at snark isn't likely to be actionable.

How is that warnable? This is ridiculous. You're trying to force people not to question the establishment at all.

Don't I have to post more than one for it to be spam? I SINGLE POST is spam?

Don't I have to post more than one for it to be spam? I SINGLE POST is spam?

I would refer you to the rules where it notes that unless you are making a report, responding to a report on yourself, or have relievant information to add, you should not be posting in Moderation. Doing so is viewed as spam and is warnable for that.

Seriously, what part of

Spamming Moderation: While the Moderators appriciate the help of the players, certain posts are not considered helpful. These include "Me too!", random comments, and attempts to either start, or continue, an argument. These posts are considered spam and since they interfere with other players receiving help they will result in a warning or a day long ban.

was not clear? You agreed to follow the rules when you joined here, those have been posted for quite sometime. They are sticked up at the top of Moderation and are refered to in the READ THIS FIRST BEFORE POSTING IN MODERATION thread. Ignorance of the rules is not exactly an excuse when we do everything but hit players over the head with them.

Of course, any post anywhere or any use of an image is arbitrarily spam or picspam

though, you can avoid that by beeing a bootlick

nice system you have there

Okay, I understand what you're saying Mr. Serious, but my point is that one post should not be considered spam and should not be warnable. Even if I brought this up somewhere you'd just warn me or ban me for spamming in moderation, so what exactly am I supposed to do if I'm unhappy with your dumb rules? Take it like a bitch? I actually like being able to freely do things on a site I've actively contributed to for over four years.

And you can join in with a *** warning for spamming Moderation ***.

Since the original complaint has been addressed and everyone else seems to just want to collect warnings for some reason, iLock.

If Freisharf wishes to appeal Nathi's warning, he may submit a Getting Help Request.

And to answer since this is a legit question, if you have an issue with the rules, you can start a thread in Moderation stating why you feel such and such rule is unjust. If you feel that you have been unjustly warned, you can appeal it through the appeals process (Also outlined in the rules). If you've been here for four years, you should know that by now.
