Actually...
It was a two week ban, and M4 did not issue it, I did.
The ban was for reasons that have not changed. On the day I issued the ban you had bumped no less than 9 threads with a smiley face. Something that was addressed to you back in December. It disrupts the flow of the board. You also were involved in a few flames back and forth between another poster. But the main reason I banned you was due to bumping threads, as you were asked prior not to do. Also the article you posted was the full article that I also recieved via a chat list I am on.
For some reason you did not get the email that I sent you in regard to your ban, still looking into that one. I do know as fact you have been sent email from not only myself but other Mods that you have not bothered to read. It is easier to say you did not get the memo when you don't open the letter I guess. I can say that you did not, for whatever reason get my letter informing you of your temp ban. And it is for that reason only that your ban was lifted. I do believe we are still reviewing a few things and are in the decission process as to what we are doing about the situation.
You knew better about bumping threads, as we went over this just recently with you. And the threads that you chose to bump were not even relevant to any current conversations on the boards. In fact some of them were off topic and seemed like random bumps for you.
In the past we have agreed to disagree Dread, I have no personal issues with you. While I may not always agree with you I have never once made anything on this board personal with anyone. If I find myself in a position where I feel it best dealt with by another so that it is clear there are no personal opinions or feelings involved I pass it to another Moderator. I work very hard to keep my own thoughts or feelings out of this forum.
Mod4 is no longer here, and it is a sad loss. There have been issues in the past between yourself and Mod4, and I guess this was the last stroke. I cannot say for certain any or all the reasons M4 left, but do know they are gone.
What I find odd here is that you have started a thread in regard to the entire event. Almost a play at more attention it would seem.
The reasons I banned you are as follows. With the primary issue being the first, bumping old threads.
Bumping old threads, with a smiley face. You had no further input to the discussion you just bumped them .. some of them a year old
Posting phone numbers in the forums. Please share them via email if need be. I realize these were numbers of munch groups. However, some people that organize and run these groups do so from their homes, and I personaly would not want my number on a public board as such. This would, to me, seem like common courtesy.
Posting a full article, due to copyright laws, we need to only post snippets or parts of the original and a link to the original.
This holds extremely true if it is a news article. I have read most of the essays written by the author you posted, and I realize her work is sent out via hundreds of groups.
In the past you have touted on how you do bend the rules if not break them, it is something you seem proud of. So be it. And I am in agreement, you do in fact see how far you can push things ... most of the time. I think it gives you some sort of pride to know you are pushing limits. It seems to be a part of your nature. And thats fine, it is afterall who you are. We have a few here on the boards that do the same.
As far as apologies go, I don't owe you one. Had the email gone through as it should have, you would at this moment be under a temp ban and the issue would be moot. Just goes to show, even our mail messes up from time to time, the members are not the only ones who have mail issues.
As far as this entire thread goes, I find it rather silly and attention gathering.
This is the first and the last time I have spoken on the issue, I have said what I needed to and if anyone has any further questions feel free to email me on the other side.
