Why was I banned for a week?

[siman]

I never got word back from Jeff Lange why I was banned for one week (actually 5 days)? :icon_conf

Just interested, since Jeff seems to not answer emails reguarding his actions.

probably because you're an antagonist to most things and proceed to get out of hand with things

Really?

Explain how you came to the conclusion me as an antagonist.
Maybe you spend too much time in OT? Heck, why should I be banned for something I say in OT?....Isnt that the reason we have OT, or settling things through PM?

I was never PM'd from anyone, not even one moderator. This makes me suspicious of how the moderation system works around here :hsugh:

You were banned the evening of August 1st, and you were unbanned on August 4th. Your email was not responded to, because I just wanted you to think about it for a while, and not exchange any words, just think.

You cause problems in almost every thread you post. I got emails and PM's from numerous people asking for action, and there are at least 3 threads about you in the moderator forum. That's more than anyone else I think.

You intentionally piss people off, you post comments that flame people for no reason, you barely think before you post, what else do you want? You weren't banned because I don't like you, Supramania is a site for the community, and frankly, the community wants you to be more of a team player, and less of a mean-spirited person will ill-intentions.

I could care less what you're like in real life, or even your attitude, but when you're on a community site like SM, we do all want to get along. I don't think we had a single argument while you were gone, when you're here there is like at least one a day.

So umm... what else do you want to know?

, Supramania is a site for the community, and frankly, the community wants you to be more of a team player, and less of a mean-spirited person will ill-intentions.

And have I not helped alot of people in the tech sections to solve problems?
Have I not tried to get a supra meet for the nashville region going ( successfully)?

Have people raised beef with me just for the heck of it? YES.

Did I start a thread wanting "action"....NO. I just go to PM's or just forget about it.

Its just that I am supposedly always talked about here.....but never hear one word from one person in PM's....rather I just get cursed out in a thread by some bandwagon'd members.

If someone has that much of problem with me.....why dont they step it up and contact me personally?

That is food for your thoughts. :icon_bigg

No one likes you...

But seriously, some people are just whining babies who can't deal with someone saying something they don't agree with.

 

[supra90turbo]

siman...
why dont you just put your phone number in your sig, then when we have something to say in regards to a post, we can just call you up.

i guarantee you'd have a thousand dollar phone bill.

As for Cz, I could not agree more:

[Topher E]

Strip him of mod title and reset all his stuff if he is causing all this trouble. I dont want to get on anyones bad side buy this is just a thought

Strip who of their mod status? Nobody wants to strip anyone LOL...\

but yes, where is this "Mod Forum" ???? :icon_conf

^ Just a suggestion of what to do if a mod abuses their power

 

[streetknight]

mod forums are locked for other members only a mod can see it.

but on another note siman, I personally dont have much a problem with u. I have never dealt with u, but from what I have gathers being a mod and seeing how many ppl complain about u. I most say that if u value being on this forum u should shape up. their is a long line of ppl who would like to see u banned for good.

 

[outofstep]

I vote you make it permy

 

[TONY!]

I am really hoping that this does not become a hate thread!
Not for the sake of one individual, but for the forum as a whole.
If someone has something constructive to add, that is one thing, but many times, it takes two or more to play.

Strip him of mod title and reset all his stuff if he is causing all this trouble...

Dude, you know nothing about the situation. It is behavior like that -- when people post without a clue -- that gets people going on this site.
Your suggestive comments are towards a very intelligent contributor to this site.
His job is not an easy one at all because he has to balance many things out.
His reward will not be to have someone talk about something they know nothing about.

Thread's original purpose was fulfilled.
Can we lock it now. It is going out of direction.

Who? Jeff? While this is exactly what I would suggest for a mod gone 'mad', I can guarantee this is not the case with Jeff. He's just the latest in a long line of people who have had to brandish the ban stick to try to keep order around here.

look kid, tony is a very strong supporter of this community, as many others are as well. dont post in this thread if nothing constructive is to come out of it.
as for striping a mods privledes i dont see how that would help Jeff did what seems to be alot of the members on the board wanted him to do, he made a decision and followed through with it. nuff said. if anyone should be bitched at it should be people that come into a thread with no clue as to what is going on. as tony has said above.

 

[siman]

The reason of this thread is not to "shine light on a bad moderator" whatsoever.

I have not one problem with Jeff Lange or Lanky or any other mod....they were given the privalage of being a moderator for a reason.

As for me, on my side, I have really not one clue why I was banned on a whim......it was seriously retarded.....no "warning", no "pm", no "email" regaurding a decesion was about to be reached ever made it to me....just an email from Jeff stating I was banned for a week.

And still, I see people typing that " we have heard numerous complaints about you " yada yada etc......, but no one seems to suck up to their quarrells they had with moderators about me?

Is it just the same members that keep on and keep on talking about me, and is it just the same members that keep on making the decision to ban me for an extended period?

I am really just plain and simply PUZZLED. :aigo:
