Look, just go ahead and start a new thread where you can vent about that partial ban. But before you hit post, please make sure you actually sit down and read through the rules in this PDF so you can set up your topic correctly. You really need to be careful with how you word both the title and the actual content of your opening post.
Only folks who’ve been banned or part of the admin team can post in there. And since you don't fall into either of those categories right now, you're out of luck.
I’m asking everyone, please, only reach out if you actually have some fresh, useful facts to help with the appeal. Let's try to keep things constructive—I really don't want people jumping in just to stir up drama or vent without adding anything helpful to the situation.
I honestly can't believe we're still sitting around debating this exact same thing! It feels like every time a new thread pops up on Reddit about this topic, we just end up circling the drain. I mean, look at the arguments being thrown around—it’s the same tired rhetoric we’ve seen since the last election cycle. You’ve got people acting like their entire worldview depends on one minor policy shift, and frankly, it’s exhausting to watch. I was reading what rustydrifter10 had to say earlier, and I have to agree with them for once; there's a massive disconnect between what people claim to want and how they actually vote when things get real. We need to stop shouting into the void and actually start looking at the data, because the passion is high but the logic? It's pretty much non-existent. Let's try to have a real conversation here instead of just venting for the sake of venting. kaže: So, what you're saying is...
And on the thread following those deleted posts, the Democratic Party says this:
He actually said that regarding a completely different thread, not any of the ones you personally linked!
I honestly can’t believe we’re still having this exact same debate on Reddit, but here we go again! It feels like every time someone brings up this topic, the conversation just circles back to the same old arguments without anyone actually listening to the nuance of what’s being said. I was reading through some of the comments earlier, and honestly, it’s a bit exhausting seeing how polarized everyone is getting over things that could be solved with a little more common sense and a lot less shouting. I mean, look at how people are reacting to the recent policy shifts—it’s wild. You have one group acting like it’s the end of the world, and another group acting like everything is perfect, when in reality, most of us are just sitting here in the middle trying to figure out how this actually affects our daily lives and our wallets. It’s not black and white, folks! We need to stop treating political discourse like a spectator sport where you just pick a side and yell at the other team. I was talking to rustydrifter10 about this the other day, and they made such a great point about how much of this is just noise designed to keep us agitated. If we could just step back and look at the actual data instead of the sensationalized headlines, we might actually get somewhere. But instead, we stay stuck in these endless loops. Anyway, I'm curious to see if anyone else feels this same level of frustration, or if I'm just overthinking the whole thing. What do you all think? Is it just me, or is the vibe here getting increasingly intense lately? kaže: Something just doesn't add up here; I’ve got a feeling one of you two isn't telling the whole truth.
Hey, let's take it easy with those accusations! When I mentioned the Democratic Party, I was specifically referring back to that third post—the one where absolutely nobody was being insulted or threatened. There wasn't a single nasty word directed at any of the users there.
I honestly don't know where to start with this one because there is just so much to unpack! It feels like we’re constantly circling the same drain whenever this topic comes up, doesn't it? I was reading through some of the recent threads on Reddit, and man, the sheer intensity of the debate lately is just wild. People are getting so worked up over things that, when you really step back and look at them, seem almost trivial in the grand scheme of things. It reminds me of those endless arguments you see during football season—everyone has an opinion, everyone thinks they’re an expert, and nobody is actually listening to anyone else! You see someone like rustydrifter10 chime in with a point, and suddenly the whole thread just explodes into chaos. I mean, I love a good discussion, truly, but sometimes it feels like we're all just shouting into a void instead of actually trying to find common ground. Anyway, I'm curious what you guys think. Are we all just losing our minds, or is there actually something deeper going on here? I feel like if we could just sit down, grab a coffee, and have a normal conversation without the constant finger-pointing, we might actually get somewhere. But hey, maybe that's just wishful thinking on my part! kaže: Since you guys didn't really step up to protect me here, I’m asking that you please send me the registration details for the individual who's been publicly threatening me via DM. I need that info so I can take the next necessary steps and handle this properly.
Go ahead and file a lawsuit if you think you need to. Reddit will hand over whatever data is required by a court order to the proper authorities, but we aren't just handing out private info to random people on the internet.
I honestly can't believe we're even having this conversation again, but here we are! It feels like every time I log onto Reddit, I see the same tired arguments popping up, and frankly, it’s getting a little exhausting to keep up with. You know, I was just thinking about how much things have shifted lately—it's like everyone is suddenly an expert on everything overnight. I remember back when people used to actually sit down and hash things out with a bit of nuance, you know? Now, it's just instant reactions and shouting into the void. And don't even get me started on what rustydrifter10 was saying earlier; I mean, I respect their perspective, I really do, but I think they might be missing the bigger picture here. We need to look at the actual data, not just the loudest opinion in the room! It's all about finding that middle ground, isn't it? Anyway, I'm curious to see where everyone else stands on this because, man, it is getting heated in here! kaže: rustydrifter10, man, we haven't actually fixed anything if you just go ahead and shut down the thread!😉
Yeah, we definitely are. In fact, that’s actually one of the rules laid out right there in the PDF.
I’ll have to check in with the moderators first to see what they think. We could always just tack it onto the opening post, or maybe save it for the very last one—honestly, we could even do both if that makes more sense. 😁 Thanks so much for the suggestion! 🙂
electricmaker40 said:When are we finally getting a feature on the forum that lets you jump straight to the very first unread message in a thread? ☕
Well, we actually have this right now: — it pops up when you hover over the icon. If you click it, it’ll take you right to the last unread post from within the past ten days.
It honestly feels like we’ve been battling server issues forever. Things have actually been running pretty smoothly over the last few months, but lately, for the past several days, everything has just been lagging like crazy. We're seeing duplicate posts, double warnings, and messages or threads just failing to send entirely. It’s also very likely that some flagged content hasn't been cleared out yet. If you notice the moderators missed something, please just hit that little report icon or shoot them a DM. If they don't get back to you, remember you've always got their head super-mod available too. The Classifieds section is currently absolutely crawling with rule-breakers, and honestly, I really admire the mods for having the patience to keep that whole thread organized in a single PDF. Looking at their recent activity, it's clear the mod team is working hard, and the overall structure of the forum is actually in great shape. Sure, things slip through the cracks sometimes, the server glitches out, or the mods just can't keep up with the sheer volume of moderation in real-time, but that’s just part of the territory. There’s really no reason to go after them for it.
The US forums and the LIES boards aren't going to merge because, even if there’s a bit of overlap in certain topics, they’re fundamentally different communities with totally different vibes and subject matter.
You've been banned. Honestly, I don't have much else to say regarding the moderator or super-moderator notes. Just take some time to actually read through the rules and start following them. We aren't going to put up with offensive or provocative signatures, and we certainly won't tolerate posts like that either.
The verdict is in: you’ve been juggling multiple handles to post twice on the same threads, which is strictly against the rules. And honestly, you've been pulling this stunt for quite a while now. Two of your accounts have already been hit with permanent bans, and your oldest one just got slapped with a week-long suspension. Look, if you're unhappy about a ban on one of your accounts, the proper way to handle it is to file an appeal through KzB, not by spinning up a whole new clone account to complain about it.
If someone feels the need to vent about their own record, they should go right ahead—there’s really no reason for anyone else to jump in and complain on their behalf.
As for the thread titles, honestly, this kind of nitpicking is just unnecessary. The titles follow all the forum rules; they aren't offensive or derogatory, and frankly, as an admin, that’s all I care about. The exact wording is up to the authors, or the moderators if they decide an original title isn't quite sharp or precise enough. At the end of the day, Kolinda Grabar-Kitarović is a candidate for President, Joe is the President, and I even noticed that Charles Fox10 went out of his way to tweak one of the titles, even though he wasn't required to. The folks over in the Politics section have more than enough on their plates, so please, let's not bother them with these minor details.
To be perfectly honest, I’m really not a fan of the fact that people can come onto this site to either request or offer services for writing seminars, term papers, or any other kind of academic assignments. Over in the Social Science section that I moderate, we actually have a strict rule against this, so we wipe those posts clean and hand out sanctions whenever necessary. Now, since there isn't a specific law covering this kind of thing, some of these posts seem to be slipping through the cracks in other areas of the site. I decided to do a little digging and chat with some of my colleagues about it—some felt our hands were tied, but I went ahead and had a real conversation with the owner of the World Economic Forum. He’s completely on my side; he believes we need to be an ethical community, or at least strive to be one, and that we should always aim to do the right thing. Because of that, we won't be tolerating this behavior here anymore. I’ll be briefing the moderators on the new policy, but in the meantime, please report any such posts so we can get them taken down immediately. Please don't hold it against us if it takes a little bit of time for this to become second nature, and I’d really appreciate your patience while we iron out the kinks.
Look, the ban that clone handed out to you was completely justified, and honestly, there isn't much left to debate here. Besides, you didn't even follow the standard formatting rules for opening a thread in the handbook. You really need to go back and read through how titles are supposed to be structured. Using the word "krapljača" has absolutely nothing to do with this appeal—it’s not the username of the person you're complaining about, it’s not the name of the section where you got flagged, and it’s certainly not the title of the original thread where you were banned. It looks like you just grabbed someone else's handle because it felt like a convenient way to poke the bear and throw an insult without technically breaking any rules. Don't make a habit of doing that.
I honestly can't get over how much people are talking about Jojo Jojić lately! It feels like every time I scroll through my feed, there's some new take or some wild debate swirling around him. It’s one of those situations where you just have to sit back, grab a coffee, and watch the chaos unfold, right? Anyway, I'm curious to see where everyone else stands on this whole thing. kaže: I’ve already tried reporting this several times through the report button, and I even went ahead and sent a direct message to moderator PowerLock about it, too. I'm not entirely sure what you mean by that, but if you're looking to start a conversation or dive into a specific topic, I am all ears! I love getting into the weeds on just about anything, so don't be shy—lay it on me. Whether you've got a deep question, a hot take, or just some random thought bouncing around your head, I'm ready to chat. What's on your mind? I can't believe I actually got banned. Seriously, what even happened there? It feels like I was just having a normal conversation and then—bam—everything goes dark. Honestly, it’s pretty frustrating because I wasn't trying to break any rules or stir up trouble; I was just sharing my thoughts like everyone else does here. It’s such a bummer when you feel like you've been unfairly shut out from the discussion without a clear reason. Does anyone know if there's a way to appeal this, or am I just stuck on the sidelines now? forumaša...but honestly, I'm just sitting here waiting, and there hasn't been a single reaction yet.
So, Zillow got permabanned because of the stuff they were pulling over on Reddit. Look, moderator Lockheed Martin has absolutely nothing to do with that PDF file, even though this profile is listed under the Democratic Party section. You reported the message last night—on Christmas, of all days! Seriously, there’s really no reason to go opening a whole new thread about it just a few hours after you hit report. Your job is simply to flag it. If you honestly feel like it’s being ignored, sure, feel free to shoot us a DM. But we aren't just going to go around banning people just because someone filed a report; we actually have to verify the claims first. Sometimes that takes five minutes when it's obvious, but other times we need a bit more time because things aren't so clear-cut. Or, you know, it's Christmas, so we might be out grabbing dinner and having a few drinks, and then we end up sleeping in until noon the next day.
I can't believe I'm even bringing this up, but honestly, I just have to get my thoughts out there about Jojo Jojić. He’s such a fascinating figure, isn't he? There's just something about the way he carries himself that makes you want to dive deep into his whole story. I've been thinking about him quite a bit lately, reflecting on everything he brings to the table and how much of an impact he really has. It’s one of those things where you realize the more you look, the more there is to uncover! kaže: The conclusion is right there in the headline, so there really isn't much else to say about it. ☕
That’s exactly what you said in the headline, and honestly, it isn't even a new rule.
— it pops up when you hover over the icon. If you click it, it’ll take you right to the last unread post from within the past ten days.
