Timeout sentence...

By (user no longer on site) OP over a year ago

I was notified by an admin yesterday that I had been placed on time out.

Reason, I do not know. The message I got wasn't clear on what my offence was.

I remember putting up a post which seemed to not impress some people, I later asked for not being misunderstood. One said I was shallow for apologizing, another included 'WTF'. In my response I said I doubted one's sanity was chronic.

I got a timeout, on what basis? Should I take and not give? Or is it a case of an ordinary site user against a site supporter?

If my last assumption is right reason, then I can understand, but let the admin know that I use vectonemobile and the site text site supporters registration hasn't gone through. Mayb they should think of either making vectone mobile line's payment acceptable or list the networks users are allowed to use for the text message site supporters registration.

Be that as it may, I just got a warning about my status not conforming with the rules. I've read the rules over and over, but can't see where I went wrong. My status happened to be a heading of one of my forum posts. I did not name anyone, I did not insult anyone. And yet I was threatened it was a first and last warning which if I am found wanting again, I'd be banned. Ever since I've been weeping as that woukd mean switching off my oxygen pipe!!!

I do think that sites as big as this should have a proper way of dealing with issues where your unacceptable comment is copied to you and why it is not acceptable. As it stands, I do not know what my offence was, and since I wasn't clarified on that, I might reoffend and get banned.

Well, since I don't pay to create new email id, maybe that wouldn't be a problem...

I got one last week for opening a post and repeating a private message I got. Yet it seems ok for others to do it.

Do you know something, i wasnt on the site for about 5 weeks, before that you whinged and whined and put controversial threads up. I come back and your still doing it.

Why not bloody just have a laugh and get yourself liked like everyone else managers to do.

Some could easily mistake you for a troll

Trolls... are people who want to get on your nerves. They will usually lurk around the forums and wait for an opportunity to annoy or attack a user. The best way to ignore a troll is not to flame back, but to report and move on. Trolls are no good and should be exiled.

why ask here about the reason you were pt on time out ??? we arent admin and certainly cant give you the answer you want . all you are doing is heading for another ban . if you have issue with admins decision then CONTACT ADMIN .if you say its unfair then PUT YOUR CASE TO ADMIN . see whee im going with this ... use the proper routes for complaints you have or you just cause yourself further issue and put yourself in a bad light to other reading the post

i doubt wether or not your a paying supporter makes any difference to the mods but i think youre right to seek clarification on why you got some time out as you clearly communicate in a different way to most people. Perhaps you should review the answers you get to your posts and try and understand how your making people feel, cos if your not doing this on purpose you

need to make some changes, good luck x

No one is banned from chat without good reason. Yes, mistakes can happen time to time but it's not a common occurance.

If you are being abusive to someone then you will definitely be banned. The other person may have received the same, only the mod and them are to know.

Mods do not just ban non-site supporters. Everyone on here are the same, regardless of whether they pay or not.

If you have an issue with being banned then you use the contact button at the bottom of the page and give admin as much detail as possible .... you don't start threads regarding it.

People need to express a feeling or thought. Sometimes other people 'react' negatively because instead of looking at the cause of the expression they look at the symptom and then act punitively.

It takes a very intelligent and very compassionate person to take a moment to understand what a person is saying sometimes. There aren't many people like that.

Unfortunately when in forums and chat rooms these days the diversity is very broad and thems that have the loudest voice 'click the report button often' tend to get the attention and satisfaction.

The worst part is, today, the victim is the one punished repeatedly and the perpetrator is rejoiced with accolades by followers.

cause we all want to be accepted.

and sometimes people have to help themselves ! you can give all the support and advice in the world .if the indervidual doesnt take that in concideration and act on it very little else anyone can do and they will continue to dig the same hole for themselves untill they themself break that cycle . some people though just dont want to though ..

Oh well, I can feel people are getting a bit edgy, but thanks one thing I've got from all you lot is there's a route to reach whoever is in charge of wishing punishments.

I shall table it before the moderators' tables. I do not think anyone is obliged to comment on a post if you don't think you should. I've never been banned on any forum before now, so I was trying to see if itls something new, but good to kniw some have had it too. If I didn't post this how would I have kniwn?

Don't get irritated just move on if you think it's mot worth commenting on simple as...

I am not going to play in a way that would make all like me. No one is liked by all so that's how the dice of life rolls...

I think what you will find on the forums is there is a gang mentality with some who use it a lot. They do not like an individual so will chat and orchestrate on MSN and all report an individual. You will find that admin/mods will bow to peer pressure and time out an individual.

You will also find the biggest abusers/trolls/flamers call them what you will are users that use the forums a lot, they feel that it is their territory and do all they can to make someone leave by fair means and foul. That’s not just fab forums but forums in general. The negative effect is it makes many watching move on to other sites.

Obviously people thought a comment was worth the effort.

If it isn't the comment YOU wanted it's you that has to move on.

Even when advice is offered you are rude to the people who offer it.

Thanks so so much. I am sure you'd be a very understandin and interesting person. Why would one not use the reply privately to say they didn't like a comment you made in that youmight apologise if need be instead of running to the admin? If I am banned does that give you a gold access?

Well if that really does go on behind the scenes ta that extent then it's very sad

Its nothing to do with site support, many we know now do not pay for site support as admin response is dire if you support or not.

What you will find though that admin need to keep complaints down and if many users target an individual they then act which is a sad state of affairs.

There are lots of threads today on the forums that you could join in, nonscequental threads, saying good morning or having a bit of a banter. Its quite easy to join in and post on those. But no, you choose to put controversial threads up. So what kind of answers do you expect? I grant you the intelligence to not have to answer that

Bloody news ta me lol

When these people can actually provide proof that I get involved in that side of things other than to what I actually do ( IE I may comment on the odd post or poster but never nastily)then I would be most interested to read their evidence

Other than that I feel they should keep their Chinese wisper comments to themselves

Anything I want to say to anyone I have no problem putting it in open forum

If these people think I am two faced then that of course is their right but I assure you and anyone that ACTUALLY knows me will tell you I am not

O o O oo

Maybe a bit of clarification is needed here.

1. Admin or mods only act on what they can see and NOT people complaining about a certain post or poster.

2. If people report a post it is dealt with on merit, if it isn't against rules it is left up. If it is against rules it gets taken off.

3. Post/ thread removal and forum or chat bans are not down to peer pressure...just plain old rule breaking.

4. If you have a problem with a ban you recieve send your feedback to Admin from the CONTACT button. If the ban was a mistake or not justified, your ban will be overturned.

5. Do as the rules ask and keep it off the forums, or you could find yourself with a second ban straight away.

Thread closed.
