Dies to Removal

Dear MTGS Administrator ExpiredRascals:

With all due respect, the following infraction is nothing but a crock:

Infraction PM

Dear Gaea's Regent,

You have received a infraction.

Reason: Trolling and Spam
-------
Your post was designed to be a jab and provocation instead of contributing to the topic. This makes it both trolling and spam, neither of which is okay in Community Issues. Please refrain from non-constructive posts of this nature in the future.

Normal Offenses
The list below is not intended to be all-inclusive of the offenses that may cause warnings or infractions;
the MTGSalvation staff reserves the right to issue warnings and infractions for offenses not listed.

• Spam
  A spam post is any post that does not contribute an original thought, advance the discussion, or add on-topic content to a thread. Examples of spam posts include, but are not limited to: bumping a thread (other than a haves/wants trading list), discussing a topic that is not relevant to the thread it's posted in, and posting excessively short messages such as "thanks", "k", "QFT", "Oh god no", etc.
• Flaming and Trolling
  Flaming is a hostile verbal attack directed at another person or group of people. Trolling is the act of deliberately provoking a hostile reaction from other users. These actions will not be tolerated.

Original Post:
QR_BBPOST

In my opinion, a ridiculously long quote with only a tiny response should be considered spam just for readability's sake. I can see why someone would want to quote a giant thing if you want to reply to the entirety of it in detail, but when all you're doing is adding a single thought, I think it gets a bit silly.

It doesn't really warrant warning/infraction as such, though, at least in WCT (though readability is still enforced), but it's still something that's frowned upon. I'm not sure how common a thing it is in other subforums, though.

Cool. New reasons to hand infractions.

In addition to coaching or guidance by the acting staff member, please review the Forum Rules in order to better understand why
you received this infraction and to help forestall such actions in the future.

If you believe that you received this infraction in error, please contact the acting staff member on their help desk, found in the Community Issues forum. If you believe this issue goes above their jurisdiction, please contact a Global Moderator or Administrator via the PM system.

All the best,
MTG Salvation Forums

The fact that it came 18 hours after another admin posted in that thread goes without saying. My guess is that the summit lasted that long. Criticism comes in many forms, and my post was not "designed to be a jab and provocation", but it was criticizing the absurdity of considering turning things into "spam" (in other words, an infractable offense) only for "readability's sake".

It is only funny that you people despise the epithet of "morally corrupt", yet you have once again proven
that criticism will not be tolerated and that it will be censored with the full weight of the law MTGS' Rulez. I am sure that Teia Rabishu's reaction to my post was just the usual rage in the (GR)RRRR thread and that such reaction was factored into this decision. That moderator and yourself have, in my opinion, serious issues with accepting criticism, and my recommendation is that you work on those issues, for your own personal betterment.

Overturning this illegitimate infraction is up to you and your ever-summiting Staff, so please consider this post an "appeal" if you will, for I do not.

Kind Regards.

Gaea's Regent.

Hahahahaha! Way to censor criticism Ben. Go sit on Teia's dick dude...

I am curious as to the type of things Teia used to say about certain users in the Grrrrrrrrr thread.

I made a thread in the mod lounge for hopefully solving some of the problems in the appeals process like the wall of silence people have had in the past.

It was noted. Kind of stalled out from other things going on, and there were disagreements with my ideas. I was actually talking about it earlier today with an admin, though.

Shalako can you post one of your amusing irreverent images?

I am not being sarcastic either...I used up all of that in my response to Talore.

I don't understand why anyone would want to run a Child's Game Forum like the D.M.V. personally.

You guys have entered the 'talking' phase which gives me hope this matter will soon be over.

I was a vanilla mod. Never kept access after "the Nai affair".

I'm not a CI Warrior... You see, CI Warriors actually rage about stuff. I'm more of a CI Troll. There's a slight difference.

I have high hopes that they will disallow bondage in the rape cave and just stick to plain rape.

Hows life Pendulum ?

One of the above is the AIM leak.
