Time out forum
Time out forum
Didn't there used to be one of those "go sit in the corner" forums to temporarily send posters who the mod-squad felt crossed some arbitrary line in the sand, to temporarily "not-really-suspend" said poster(s)' posting abilities, short of banning? Intent being to put a pause on questionable behavior and to possible establish a dialog for explanation/warnings/etc.
I wanted to ask NYBF a question about his namesake real estate but for some reason, can't make contact. And that forum doesn't seem to exist.

Re: Time out forum
This is precisely how you moderate. Bans for getting out of line can range from taking the rest of the day off, to see you next week.
Permabans are for spambots and sickos. Mods are janitors, not emperor Commodus.

His profile doesn't exist anymore. He wasn't banned. He was deleted. Seems that's how they do it here. Delete. Delete. Delete. Lock. Delete.

I don't know. Maybe suspensions cause the username to disappear from the members list until it's unsuspended?

Re: Time out forum
Someone “new” who joined January 9th is inquiring about the whereabouts of a long standing members profile? AND is coming off with passive aggressive statements?
#WhoIsThat?
Don’t know yet. But it’ll show soon enough.

I thought that was interesting so I looked, too. Maybe you and that guy from the shut down thread can come up with a list of things new people can and cannot do. It would probably go a long way to building up the community the crazy woman there wants.King Bootz wrote: ↑Mon Jan 30, 2023 8:23 pmJust noticed he hasn’t posted much over the past week or so. Clicked on his profile and it says he doesn’t exist. Must’ve gotten a suspension.

Re: Time out forum
The pissing contest between Mods and MB is way beyond dumb and needs to end. As was said, they're here to enforce rules, not run personal vendettas against board members. I'm not the biggest fan of MB. He'll tell you that. But what they are doing to him is wrong. Way wrong. Bibl's justification is no longer valid. Punishment was doled out. Even murderers get paroled.

Re: Time out forum
He broke a rule that another member got banned for but he got away with it because the old mod team thought he would take a bunch of people with him if they banned him. That's a pretty fucked up way to moderate.Buc2 wrote: ↑Wed Nov 05, 2025 11:18 am The pissing contest between Mods and MB is way beyond dumb and needs to end.

He's a scumbag and it would be better for all of us without him here.

Re: Time out forum
Yeah that happened to me once on opening week and one of the mods thought I was spamming and sent me a scathing message. Thankfully, I let him know right away what was really happening and he was cool enough to tell me what to do if it happens again.Buc2 wrote: ↑Wed Nov 05, 2025 1:24 pmYou are entitled to that opinion.
