Reporting mod abuse here.

1. You lock the thread so how do I participate? I don’t live here 24/7, people have a life outside this forum hello? I should not have to, but a mod should at least contact me and give me a few days to engage before locking and the warnings. Not thread locked and then warned me for not engaging. This is so completely backward and ridiculous
2. There is nothing worthy to engage or discuss. 1st reply was calling me a Karen. 2nd reply calling me a moron. 3rd reply was said to vote Trump in his 3rd term. I mean,please guide me on what is there to discuss. I was bullied out of the thread and somehow I got punished? Maybe the problem is the other users and not me?
3. I was just reporting the news as it was. I didn’t twist the facts or clickbait like @cryptoadam does on a daily basis. I saw at least 10 of his threads got locked but has he ever even getting a warning? How many infraction point does he has? Trump said something dumb so I just reported it, is this not allowed in this forum?

I hereby politely request the removal of my 4 infraction points and the warning. If there’s any justice left in the world. Thanks.
Living in the forum means you're living in our world but if the justice isn't fair...there's always: Community, Gaming Thread, Off-Topic. It's an election year and getting sensitive to political posts on GAF isn't the place. Reddit or Twitter cater more toward those who want justice in their world. Besides, you're Athena...a goddess associated with warfare and wisdom. Perhaps it's time you asked Aphrodite to come to the forum on your behalf and deal with those meddling mods.

I actually like Athena's posts outside of politics. Props for standing up for what was right when that gaming business got ransacked during the riots.

Maybe a little more having fun on Netjeff, and a little less:



That post tells me you are down the rabbit hole in the worst way. Unhinged is how I would describe it.

Forget about all that for a bit, have some fun, and when you return to it, widen your horizons a bit. Actually listen to some posters, and truly discuss, no strawmen or anything of the type, with them. And yeah, that means starting a conversation without standing on top of 15 panicky high horses and yelling to the peasants below -- you'll never get a positive response doing that.

Be humble and chill, if you want a humble and chill conversation.
That was obviously a parody post, everyone except you got it I think? I didn’t get actioned on that post so what’s the problem?

What is the point of digging up on older posts btw? Trying to justify on the warning I shouldn’t get?

Reason of you liking my post outside of politics maybe because I am not on your side politically?

I like basically all your posts btw.

Is that the thread where you made a drive-by OP and then disappeared? Why wouldn't they lock the thread after more than a day of the OP not responding at all? It's not like you were breaking important news.
Is that a rule on this forum? OPs have to return to threads within a day? Let’s face it I got a warning because of a rule that doesn’t exist. Reason of that: well you know why

if someone provided a good argument or discussion I would have engaged with them. Problem was that I didn’t find any in the thread

You dropped an inflammatory thread about how Trump was too smart to fall into a gotcha question where plenty of people gave you completely reasonable arguments for why we're fine with it and the second you dropped it you left.

This I don't live here 24/7 excuse doesn't fly it really seems like you put the thread in there not to discuss anything in considering you're only focusing on the responses that didn't address the content of the post that does seem to be your goal. If you want to do engage people on it there are people with reasonable responses to you that you ignored. you also didn't just report the news as it happened you didn't just post a link or something you gave your hot take on it. no Democrat president in history has been asked if they would be willing to concede peacefully if they lose at their midterm election. Hillary Clinton told Joe Biden not to concede no matter what but no one is going to ask Joe Biden if he's going to concede peacefully or not if he loses. Most of us see the game that's being played and we think it's ridiculous that people like you fall for it. And Trump does as well there's no answer Trump can give that will be good. If there's any kind of election night shenanigans involving mail in votes or something like that and he gives pushback as a result they will go back to him saying that he would peacefully transition power and say that he was going back on his word. On the same token he can't say he won't because then they'll call him a dictator. So instead he says get rid of the mail in ballots and it'll be fine. We have found enormous amounts of evidence that mail in ballots are very susceptible to voter fraud. A recent test of how the system works found that the post office first misplaced all of them and they had to ask for them for them to be found at all and then they found at least 3% of the ballots were completely gone. That 3% is going to matter in any closed selection.
You are just putting words into Trump’s mouth and doing the spinning for him now. How do you know what he was thinking? I took his words on face value and you should too. Making things up like knowing the future too. No reasonable response I saw there. That’s why I didn’t engage within a day in that thread

You posted a dumb article and included some wild hysterics of your own, offering nothing of value in the OP. What was so brilliantly presented in your OP that people failed to discuss?

If you wanna be cutesy and try to tiptoe around accusing the mods of locking your thread due to political bias, go for it. It's a bitch move, but if that's what you want, then you do you.

Hi Athena. I've removed your access to the Politics forum, so there won't be any further drama, and restored your previous tag.

Hate to nag but am I keeping this custom tag and not getting a response to my meme thread ban?

I don't know whether to laugh or cry that VoostKain got banned.

I hated it when he started shilling for my favorite plastic box - could really hurt sales. Hell almost made me not want to buy one. But you all have to admit his Stadia :poop: shilling was world-class entertainment.

Hi Clintizzle Clintizzle


Been a bit manic at mod hq the past week. Some of us even missed meals.


I had a quick look at the logs and it wasn't for a meme the reply ban was issued, it was for dragging a personal feud with Bo_Hazem into the thread. We'd prefer to keep the meme threads at least somewhat light hearted as there are enough squabbles in all the other threads. If you feel you can move on from it and just post memes then I can remove it. Your custom tag already appears to have been garnished differently at this time.


I see the situation has already resolved itself with Athena, but to clarify this was not a bias decision at all. This was a signal to adapt their behaviour, specifically in the Politics subforum, which revolved around creating 'bait' type topics to never actually discuss them further. Just attempts to try and start a topic in the hope it blew up. Further to this, there were the empty replies which were of no substance or genuine attempt to discuss the topics at hand, just derail into drama or provoke multi-quotes. User history and activity was taken into account, and a brief sample supporting the warning is evidenced below. Lastly, the thread was only closed and Athena was only warned with the text of 'Either start engaing with your topics, or you will be given a break' issued. Of course trying to misrepresent this carries further action which has now been doled out.

I have no doubt that it's been really crazy at Mod hq lately, but thank you for letting Clintizzle Clintizzle back in the Power King thread - he makes some killer memes.

Since you guys have been missing meals, take a break and have a delicious chocolate chip cookie. I baked them myself.:messenger_beaming:

Hi Bill O'Rights Bill O'Rights ,

Yeah I appreciate the mods are busy. Can I please request to be perm banned.

The new custom tag is super childish again and I have lost any good feelings I have about this forum.

I've just been reply banned in another thread for saying less than what others get away with. I think it's clear that I'm not a contributor to this site and probably best I look for gaming discussions elsewhere.

That's a shame. The new tag was only temporary - as a light ribbing, that mods/users could share a laugh over. I've updated it to reflect something like the compromise you originally suggested here:




The latest reply ban does seem to have merit though from a quick look. It was a well established technical thread about Oodle that you just dropped a console war style remark in. Reply bans are used to stop you going too far yourself, or just to send a signal out that 'time and place' need to be judged better.


I'd suggest taking a night or two? Sometimes a little spate of events can make you feel worse than is intended, or feel a little unwanted which is not the case. Think it over, and I assure you, though you may feel it's only yourself getting reply bans or warnings it most definitely is not the case.

Dude c'mon that's an awesome tag! And we need more memes. Do like Bill O'Rights says and just take a day or 2 off and things will look better.

That’s not the one he was upset about, Bill amended it to that, it was something like “Internet Bitch. Mumtastic” (not exact as he had it for a short time and I didn’t commit it to memory) as the first amendment. 😅
