So, basically, the whole day on Garbage has been nothing but nonsense fueled by people being stubborn, using weird scripts, and all that. These users won't quit even after getting two warnings from the mod, or even after the admins told them to cut it out. The argument is still going on—even if they stopped with the scripts—and now you're jumping right into the middle of it.

You have zero connection to this, and you didn't even participate, yet here you are pulling out that old warning you got for attacking the moderation (honestly, it should've been for insults, but I let it slide). You're claiming you don't respect my calls and that I'm "attacking your brave heart."

I honestly couldn't help but marvel at how you're flailing and flaming over a topic that has absolutely nothing to do with you.

Then comes your blatant insult toward me (that bit about North Korea), which is why you got a strike. That’s the second time you've insulted me on that specific subject, so you got sanctioned.

Look, I don't care what other strikes you've had or haven't had.

Jesus, it's like I'm moderating politics or something. 😵

He manages to farm a ton of karma points in just a few days and suddenly thinks he has the right to lecture me. It's just one of those massive egos looking for any excuse to dig up someone's home address or grab their IP.

Look, please cut out the provocations. If we can all just talk to each other respectfully and show some basic decency to everyone involved, that’s great. Otherwise, you're going to face sanctions and this thread will be locked.

You actually picked up two strikes: one for attacking the moderation team—even though there was outright insults in there—and a second one for being insulting yourself. I’ve reviewed both instances, and honestly, they were completely justified; if anything, the moderator was being pretty lenient.

We already have a dedicated thread for appealing strikes, so there’s really no point in dragging this argument out here. Both of the moderator's calls were spot on, though looking back, the first one could have even been stricter, and you probably would have deserved an even heavier penalty.

These users won't stop, even after receiving two warnings from our colleague, and even after the admins told them to knock it off. Even though they aren't using those specific scripts anymore, the arguments are still flying, and now you're getting sucked right into the middle of it.

There is a specific process for questioning moderation decisions. Chat threads aren't meant for that kind of thing, and anyone interfering with how the mods do their jobs can be penalized. This isn't anything new, and it's certainly not unique to the Garbage forums.

Man, that first paragraph pretty much lays out my whole crime spree. Nice work on the effort there.

The start of your second paragraph proves my point about the first one, and the rest of it just shows you aren't really great at reading what people actually write—or mocking them, for that matter. At least try with authors and historical figures.

Yeah, whatever. Not sure why you'd care about me in an internet thread.

Well, congrats, you at least got the country right. Did you have to Google that?!

Exactly. My past isn't any of your business. Just worry about the future.

I think I'll wrap this up here. No hard feelings and no need for excuses, but I've got two loud-mouthed sons at home full of testosterone to deal with. I don't really need someone else to waste my precious minutes on every week.☕

Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner.🤷

Thanks for putting so much thought into the reply. I won't be complaining to anyone ever again... honestly, I wasn't even complaining now, I just wanted more people to see this.🤷

Kevin Wood15 said:Way to go, buddy—at least you managed to find the right country. Did you seriously not even bother to check Google first?!

And you just keep on trolling even after being warned, honestly, you’re practically begging for a ban at this point. 🤦I'm locking this thread while you're still in the clear.

Lock.
