"'People could possibly live a happier, more fulfilling life once they convert to Christianity.' *warned*" -WoodBerry18
"I use to post in the politics section but after so many mods over nothing. No more. Unless you share the same exact ideology as the people over there then you're basically worse than Hitler. It should just be called the Bleeding Heart Socialist board." -EternalDivide
"I got modded for posting a spoiler even though it wasn't a spoiler and it was in spoiler tags just in case." -Mikablu
"'If it were me, I'd kill off *insert fictional game character name here*' *gets warned*" -Distant_Rainbow
"I once got a spoiler moderation for mentioning a certain character in a book series was a top swordsman. Original mod upheld with a super snarky response, but the lead thankfully overturned it." -MC_BatCommander
"warned for having a suggestive signature. 3 YEARS and tens of thousands of posts after I started using it. They went back and modded every active post in my history at the time, around 175 posts. When I disputed, a mod said it didn't matter how long it went unnoticed for, it mattered that someone was offended NOW." -TheJester2
"I also got modded for posting there should be a super smash bros anime. Did they not see the palutena reveal? It was animated. How is it not feasible?" -LightningAce11

"Banned for a board invasion that never happened." -VulcanP90
"Back during prerelease Brawl boards, made a topic titled "Put Captain Falcon in a match and I'll tell you how he wins". The topic was successful and resulted in multiple copycat topics, got warned for fad topic. Disputed that my topic was first and wasn't part of the fad, moderator told me something along the lines of "Sure it was." Went all the way to the lead, they all refused to check timestamps." -CM_Ponch
"I was modded for spoilers for saying that a boss dies after you kill him." -InvincibleEagle
"I remarked that some overweight people that I know are constantly talking about losing weight and getting in shape, but never actually do anything about it. Apparently that's trolling." -thrilIhouse

"My Nick_Clegg account got banned for Offensive Username on Gamespot" -Mobileoconkers
"purgatory for saying "i concur" on the brawl board when a guy was complaining about jigglypuff" -GibraItar
"I've had every single post I made modded and was warned/suspended (don't remember) once because I had a quote in my sig that said Sonic was garbage before Sonic 06...Mod claimed that I was trolling, even though I never went on sonic boards or sega boards or even posted in Sonic topics" -KillerSlaw

"spoiler warning with "no spoilers in post" according to the mod the name of the final dungeon isn't a spoiler and since I marked it as such it was disruptive" -Sxmfct
I was modded for saying "I was modded for being " offensive" more like being honest." Which is apparently an offensive statement and "Not Safe for Work"
ReplyDeleteThese mods and their tiny little minds are ridiculous.
On top of that there are other users now saying things I find offensive and guess what? I can't even mark their messages for moderation because I'm warned. So it's okay for me to be verbally abused and for me to offended and not to anything about it because I'm warned.
ReplyDeleteThat's great I have no way to report being offended because I'm put on a warning I shouldn't of been put on and I can't do anything about it.
As a way of protesting these terrible mods and how they have been treating the users here over the past 10 years I've been coming here I have decided to close my account.
ReplyDeleteI will be contacting CBS Interactive with screenshots that I have to make sure something is done to further prevent the way some of these mods treat their users. I will not stand for this unfair treatment of users and I encourage those of you who feel the same to please also contact CBS Interactive as well to demand that things change.
