Warning to everyone!

There are a lot of volunteer moderators on here (you know who you are), that abuse their power of being able to moderate the boards and ban/lock people on here. They have banned and locked me multiple times for stupid silly things, like calling a person an "idiot" or things that I didn't even do at all. On top of that, when I call them out on their crap, they kept deleting my posts and then banned me when I didn't even use any abusive words. When I went on the Discord chat to let them know my frustration, they all would gang up and take their coworkers side and say they "made the right choice," when they clearly did not and then blocked me, twice. And then kicked me out of the server.

So I am on here to warn all of you. Watch what you say and do on here. They don't know how to do their jobs properly, so you might get unjustly punished just like me (multiple times).

Or maybe you are just an entitled brat and the mods are actually right. They usually are.

Hey.

I wanted to provide some context on your recent removal from the discord server. While we welcome criticism and understand that players may be frustrated with moderation actions at times, we require that discussion remain as civil as possible. Your comments in the discord were not in furthering a constructive, civil discussion, hence why you were warned, and then kicked. You are not banned from the discord and are free to return if you wish to have a civil discussion with the moderation team over your account(s) or actions taken on said accounts.

We completely understand that players may disagree with our moderation actions, and if we come to the conclusion one of them was incorrect, we are more than happy to reverse it or rectify the situation. We cannot, however, even begin to come to a solution if we cannot even have the discussion because players are not willing to be civil and sit there and discuss with us.

I invite you to return to the discord server and ask to be pulled into a private room to discuss actions with us. The invite link in the Boards Discord thread should still work for you if you wish to return.

This is starting to become just silly and dumb.

You acted out of the line, you got punished accordingly. That you think you are right is fine and well, but the harsh reality is you are not. and if Being right concerns you a lot more than being controlled, being civil, then i can only speak in agreement that actions were taken against you. Not to be offensive, but i have to take off the soft gauntlets on this topic. Your stubborn and i daresay dangerous arrogance stops you from being reasonable, and people have neither the time nor the willed Investment to sit through your selfcentered opinion. so what they are doing is pull the plug on the discussion and tell you "Come back when you can be talked to" .

im very well aware that i am going over lines, and i am probably gonna get a scolding by a mod for the harsh choice of words i used, but lets be real, someone sooner or later would have to fist the truth in you since you won't take it when handed gently.

worst of all, your denial is actually your choice, not theirs. if you think you are forcibly set wrong then you really Need to come down from whatever high horse this topic sits. i can tell you can be talked to since you are a very talkative Person, but you are willingly refusing to and narrowing your own mind.

My advice, see it from the perspective of the mods. try seeing it from where they sit. having to pull up the patience of buddha himself for hundrets of people every day volunteeringly, having a code to act by AND having standarts to meet, both humane and riot-specific ones. they don't have the necessary time to extend this into god knows how long it will take for this topic until it is resolved.

If you Need a vent by all means be my guest. ive been the punching bag for tens of thousands of people, wheres one more gonna be a difference? But, the mods arent the people who you can vent on, and thats what they are trying to tell you. they are there to talk, not to listen. So try calming down, try reviewing your choices regarding this and your Responses to their answering, and then try reapproaching them. i bet you they will be appearing more approachable when you aren't pissed off as much as you are right now.

There were some in the past at the start of their new Volunteer program that totally abused what they could do and it appears they've been removed since then. Haven't seen anyone else really abuse anything.

Pretty sure you were just pushing it and got what was rightly deserved for the situation.

So to give some context here for those who weren't aware... the last time you had action was last year. Since then you haven't been touched, banned, or locked out of anything except for the discord as Chermorg mentioned. Not everything you're saying is adding up and if you could please clarify what you meant by being banned or locked.

Thanks.

I’m reminded of a scene from Matilda. Danny DeVito said it best, am I right? Those of you who know the movie understand. XD

Calling someone idiot is toxic. It is punishable.

As the initial concern has been addressed by Chermorg, and as this thread is beginning to descend into stone-walling discussions and arguments, I'm going to be locking this now.
