y bipolarmorganrst and foremost, let me say this. Do not attack me or the moderators personally for anything we do to help keep this
rum going ... OR YOU WILL BE BANNED. I'm getting tired of people making stories about access to things or
ensorship or whatever, especially when it comes to threatening the staff or any other member. This is a fairly public, in
e broadest sense of the term, forum of GOSSIP. I realize this means rough edges and personalities that clash, but
e've agreed to attempt to avoid childish behaviors here and the moderators will always have to "moderate" this... so
on't take it so personally.
econd, if you want to put some blame on things, that's understandable, but please direct it all at me, prior to
ssuming the moderators are at fault. For all you know, they were simply "following orders" ... as technically I am the
dministrator of the place you all call home. However, I attempt to allow the content to flow as freely as possible, withine rules that you all agreed to when you registered, regardless if you understand them fully or not. I'm also willing to
ve clarification and add things/adjust things in the rules to make things better for all involved and help you understand
em.
hird, if you have a problem with a moderator, please come to me first. I am as unbiased as anyone can be on this
rum, simply because I don't participate in the regular chatter, just the technical stuff. So, I'm pretty partial, albeit
utally honest. If you can't accept that, then feel free to discuss better options for said situations. I can keep your
omplaint anonymous and will always attempt to find a compromise at the least.
ourth, Feel free to comment/criticize/complain/whatever ...
HERE ... and THIS ONE THREAD ONLY, NO HOLDS BARRED ( minus porn
nd stuff, but I mean, let's talk openly!! )
MOSTLY* ..... I will be the only one moderating this thread... so, there are lines
ou could cross and I suggest you don't. But if you don't get the idea, we need
our feedback - as members, because you are the ones who have to live with
he results.

y starfiredo have some things I would like to say but just inquiring, is it okay to bring up what happened with GIS? Would that
ount as a personal attack? Because it wouldn't be intended that way, I just think a lot of people had problems with her
yle of modding (not personality so hopefully it wouldn't be considered as a personal attack) and are we allowed to
ing up ANYTHING or ask ANYTHING about the recent drama? Sorry, I just really want to keep my account so I
anted to inquire first, thank you so much
lus I do have a lot of things to say about what other people are thinking and what the majority of people are saying if
ou are interested, these obviously aren't my views but I do think its important that you know about some common
iticisms of the site? Once again I'm terrified of being rude or anything and breaking the rules haha)

o can we get some clarification as to why certain users who weren't even participating in the discussion at hand were
anned? They've clarified elsewhere that they were given no warnings and absolutely were not involved in any of the
ama, and those who were can back them up. Yet despite being valued members with hundreds of contributions
etween them, they were permanently banned.
ny effort to ascertain what exactly happened there has been met with silence and censorship, so I'm asking now for

would like to know why this -> http://*the site that shall not be named, ty.prophpbb.com/ is considered spam?
ARNING: SPAM DETECTED
get why you want it deleted, it's competition, but last time i checked there was no rule against it and calling it spam just
eems very unjustified. It would be spam if it was posted a lot, but it was only reposted, because it kept getting deleted.
espite there not being a rule against it.
nd like everybody else i would like an explanation for all the bans. As of right now the only ban that has been
xplained was jhamba's (lots of people are saying she was just criticizing GIS's mod behaviour, but at least the strong
nguage is an explanation.), but what about human holiday or mermaid blood? Oqua? And i know there have been
ts of others. And all of them say they have not even been warned.
didn't even care much about the original drama with GIS, but the censoring of people politely asking for an explanation
as really put me off.
long time posters (who aren't known for being rude or anything) suddenly disappear, it's understandable that people
ant answers, isn't it?

ure, I'll take questions about that. Because one of your moderators, and I say your moderators - because she was not
oderating my rules - she was moderating the rules that you all agreed to when you registered. Keep that in mind,
owever, if you feel you have something particularly aggressive to say and don't want to hold back, may I suggest a
M? Sometimes, people don't get along with others, you all should know this, otherwise - only my personal opinion -
ou may be too young to be here, LOL ....
k, so yes, I've personally dealt with complains about GIS - she has since left, because of her treatment here, she no
nger felt like part of the GG family - again, this being my opinion from a third party perspective. You all know what I'veeen more busy with, but yet, you also deserve to get some closure on recent events you've felt were potentially
nwarranted. This is what I've been told. I've also been told most of you think that moderators can read PMs ... no, they
annot. Nor have they ever been able to, to my knowledge.
lot of this reminds me, and some of you may not have been here, but it reminds me of the turning of 2015 into 2016,
few months back when we had some other "disgruntled" users ... and regardless of how it was dealt with or how this
being dealt with, you all seem to question with little to no actual facts behind what you are discussing, honestly. No
fense intended...
nd I will clarify again, for the sake of this topic (Re: Confusion and Clarification Time) - I'm going to spend my efforts to
elp alleviate some of the stress I'm feeling here in regards to what I feel are several different situations and mistaken
formation being passed along by disgruntled members. If you broke the rules, we warned you before you got banned.
that's not the case, then you must be a spammer and no one else cares what you want. On the off chance, since we
e all humans here, that we made a mistake, please feel free to contact me directly if need be to see some sort of
solution.
owever, I will warn you, I am also a stickler for the rules, as they were laid out by members of this forum, who are
ghly respected. I also have ensured that adjustments can be made for circumstances that I'm sure some of you will
onsider this to be.
o, please, get it all off your chest, I don't care how off topic, flaming or trolling it is, I will attempt to listen and look at
is from your Point of View.

ease specify who you are referring to and I can give you much clearer answers... but I am confident in my moderators
nd will not punish them for claims of a few users, who clearly have a vendetta for whatever reason. I've seen members
et upset because they got in trouble and I've had them apologize and come back... I've seen members who refuse to
ten to repeated attempts to get them to follow the rules they agreed to follow when they became a member. So,
xactly, WHO ARE YOU REFERRING TO?

he two names I've received thus far: The requested user does not exist.
nonymousse and Human Holiday .... (and if you are the owner of these accounts, please contact me directly via
mail)...
can look through backups and see if I can find what you all proclaim, but what the real problem may be is that they
dn't listen to repeated warnings and were banned, then became disgruntled. We've also recently had an issue with
onsistent spam and trolls disrupting the board, the moderators respond to reports, so someone reported them and I'm
ore than willing to give any banned users a second chance, if approached correctly. However, I cannot stand for the
onstant questioning of a moderator, when you don't even know what all that position entails or how someone got there
begin with, nor should I have to answer that question. Typically there have been a jumble of methods used and there
never 100% happy campers in the end, but without appropriate feedback there is little to nothing I can do for you all.aybe you didn't realize the moderators had a "boss" ... but yes, and if other moderators aren't involved, why not ask

OL, like mine directly? She is ... or WAS now, a moderator of the site and a member of several threads, and I believe
ell liked among her peers. Now you all have literally threatened her job, I'm told, over some silly gossip. How
diculous is that, and you all have the gall to talk about how things are run here... it's laughable, from my POV.
nyone involved in that, technically can be charged with a crime, and clearly were not following the general guidelines
actual rules we have here. Just saying... therefore, maybe they crossed the line and got banned and now they get
ack by hustling all you into wasting your time with conspiracy theories.... but I guess maybe your gossip has nothing to
o with any of this.... I don't really know, I don't follow these threads and try to look through the least amount I can in aay, just doing technical work. Let alone what we've asked several loyal members to do for us as moderators.
hy so hard on the ones who have to enforce the rules, so the next time you want to report someone, you can?!?!
hat is wrong with you all. Over what exactly. Please someone tell me what really started all this?!

ruggle to understand why you've let it get to the point where popular posters (the people who MAKE certain threads
uccessful) have been banned causing droves of other posters to leave, yet you and Nesoi have still stood by her.
she a cousin of somebody? Do you and Nesoi truly believe that she is an insider? Or is this a 'once you're in the mod

her users have listed some of the users who were banned. i have personally messaged you with a few (which you
nored, and claimed i was giving you no names) and i don't doubt that others have too. the problem is that this last of a
w users were banned and were NOT GIVEN A REASON, not to mention the posts that were deleted for no given
ason. how are we meant to follow the rules and not end up banned when no one is going to tell us what people are
eing banned for? and stop this crap about a vendetta. there was no vendetta, simply a mod who was called out for not
oing the best job. christ, the rules themselves prohibit "excessive flaming". i've never seen anything remotelyxcessive from the users banned (again, actually look at users posted here or sent to you and stop acting like people
e delusional)
ese aren't just claims of a few against your darling mods. look at the dan and phil thread, just about everyone has left.
ow can you claim to address people's issues when your solution is always either to just insult the person, wail on
bout unexplained rules, remind everyone that mod = better than them, claim you don't know etc... ie do anything but
arify the issue?
osters were not given reasons for the ban, and nobody can see where the apparent spamming was.
reatened her job? the job she lied about? her claims have already been proven false about that insider knowledge

re you done with your personal issues with me?
is IS you being notified. posters couldn't notify you because, guess what, they were banned! i've sent you the list of
sernames at least twice. here's the exact phrase from my second last message to you
e user oqua was banned and doesn't know why. so was mermaid blood and Anonymousse seems to have been
eactivated.
that in your data somewhere?
ou're mad that i'm saying there's no reason, but you won't give a real reason. users are either not notified when the get
, or are jut don't understand what post caused the ban. people are asking what the reasons are, not to be repeatedly
ld that there are reasons and someone was probably mean or spammed somewhere.
h, and my personal issues? meaning, you repeatedly claiming that i'm obviously facing a language barrier after me
aying my first language is english? and now that i'm insane? not really, no.
nd now you're just going to toss out warnings because you feel like it? really helping your case, buddy. what have i
one? asked for clarification, in the thread for it? been offended at being treated like there's something wrong with me

was IzzySmi on GG and one of the first to be permanently banned 3 days ago, some of you may have noticed I had
bsolutely had nothing to do with the “debate” about whether Gabby cared about the lives of anyone. I received no
arnings before my permanent ban and in fact I have never received a warning on that forum EVER. I don’t believe
ny of my posts were ever moderated/edited either as there was simply no need. So why the lifetime ban. AND, why
e two IP address bans? That’s right, both of my IP addresses from two different homes have been banned so I amnable to even access the site never mind read it or make another account.

know I broke no rules, I know people didn’t report me for flaming/trolling either as my last posts on the forum were
bout Gabby lying about sleeping naked (sooo offensive yo), edited eyes in selfies and buying Hobnobatron an Easter
gg and before that I hadn’t been online for over a week due to being busy."
l of your statements regarding members listening or not listening to rules are not at all relevant in this case as again,
reiterate, Izzy wasn't even part of the conversation, she had nothing whatsoever to do with it and I don't think she
as even online at the time. The implication that we have some irrational, unwarranted 'vendetta' against your mods is
ankly ludicrous. All we saw, those of us who weren't directly involved, was valued members being banned for little to
o reason and repeated attempts to obtain clarification were ignored. This is where these frustrations have come from.
