How to remove a partial?

I’d like to formally request the removal of my partial ban from the politics and history forums.

I actually went through this process—and had it approved—about a year ago.

Thanks!

I know you all have your hands full, I really do—but look, the entire day has slipped by since I first asked about getting those partial payments cleared out...

Sorry for the wait, I was just digging through some PDFs. It looks like the politics and history files won't be downloading.

Are you kidding me?

I literally requested a partial breakdown over a year ago...

So what, am I banned now because of your decision regarding the PDF politics?

Requesting a partial ban doesn't guarantee you can undo it later. I remember explaining this exact point to you during your own request...

Michelle Evans said:When users ask to be restricted from a specific subforum, they are essentially requesting a partial ban. These aren't timed; they are permanent unless otherwise decided. If someone wants to rejoin a section after some time has passed, there's no guarantee we'll grant that access. It's entirely up to the moderators of that specific area.

Michelle Evans said:If you decide you want access to those PDF sections again, you can start a thread here or just message the moderators to request reentry. Just to reiterate, access isn't automatic; it depends on their discretion.

Michelle Evans said:Partial bans for those two PDF areas are indefinite. They may or may not be lifted upon your request if you ever decide you want to participate there again.

The moderators for politics and history have decided not to restore access, and you accepted that possibility when you first asked for the partial ban.

Michelle Evans said:If you're okay with how things stand, please confirm so I know I've explained everything clearly. Once you do, the administrator will process the partial bans for politics and history within a day or so.

EDIT: Since your main ban has been lifted, please just send a quick message to one of us moderators to confirm you're okay with the terms of the partial ban. (Nica, Dorian Gray, or myself)

Michelle Evans said:The moderators over at Politics and History decided she isn't coming back—and honestly, you basically signed off on that possibility yourself when you went asking for a partial refund.

What was the reason? Was she somehow unfit? Not bright enough?

No—you clearly don't get what I'm saying.

You laid out the reasons yourself in this post

If you're referring to this specific section from that thread:

Regarding the moderators on the politics and history forum, I can only say you’re just as useless as the tabloid trash found in the American media—I suspect you're even quite aware of your own bias when it comes to scrubbing propaganda and trying to maintain any semblance of a civil debate, yet you're powerless to stop it.

And frankly, you don't seem to realize you're running an incredibly powerful medium—a realization coming from someone with a fairly extensive and unique background in the media industry.

By acting selectively—and usually through an ideological lens—and using suppression tactics, you're largely contributing to the growing intolerance and divisiveness within society, especially among the readers of this forum.

Well, I guess I didn't get my predictions wrong by a year after all.

"Give a man power, and you see who he really is."

Running a media outlet isn't for everyone—certainly not for those who use "objectivity" as mere flowery rhetoric to mask both their own interests and the plain truth.

It’s a bit unkind to leave out the rest of that post, isn't it?

.........That’s exactly my grievance with you all. I won't be engaging anymore; frankly, you don't even deserve the effort of me generating such trivial content...

If you're actually aware of it, the only thing you can do is try to ruin my dinner, much like Hans Holcijus voj Seselja.

Honestly, once you take this kind of stance, there isn't much point in dragging the conversation any further. The moderators have already made their final call on the matter. Now, look, you’re more than welcome to try and appeal for the removal of that partial entry again after six months have passed, but I’m telling you right now—there is absolutely zero guarantee that they’ll actually budge.
