Every time I log-in and have new messages I hold my breath when I open my inbox, hoping there's not that dreaded bad news... "Terms of Use Violation!"

It's not even that I'm an abusive poster; most of the time it's just someone asking me to join their union.

It's more that I fear the mod-reaper and hate those messages.

So, does opening your inbox scare you a little?

No, never... Even if I wasn't a mod it wouldn't. There are much more important things in life.

No, Because quite frankly I don't really care about them... I know none of the violations I would have committed would be all that serious. I haven't had a point loss as a result of a moderation for quite a little while.

It didn't until I started posting in OT, partly because I've never received a notice in my GS inbox for my moerations on GameFAQ boards and partly because the topics I post in in OT have such a thinner line you have to walk in terms of being offensive.

No, I generally post in a positive manner, so when I get a moderation it is quite the surprise to me.

I actually expect them when I open my inbox, that way I won't be crushed if it is one. If it's not then I'm just pleasantly surprised.

Yes. I just joined and I've been "Moderated" twice. Gs has some pretty ridiculus rules to be honest.

I couldn't imagine how harrowing it must be to be a female poster on a male dominated site like this.

You'd have to pick through all the creepy emails to find the moderations and union requests.

I usually stand over female posters and breathe heavily behind them to make the creepiness I receive less severe. I guess the double whammy would be for the female mods we have :?

Yeah. I saw a thread like that when one was harrased for being female and attacked for being amod. Of course I gained a lot of respect for her by how well she handled it.

I imagine she had a banhammer in one hand and her mod-sword in the other?

I'm afraid it wasn't a kannabis leaf, but a similiar looking plant. Then again, it's not worth it.

I am a little apphrensive at times lol I know I can walk close to the line sometimes (and I had a spate of moderations recently that I almost contested and choose not to) so I do pick up some moderations here and there. Like I said I know I walk the line and some of what I say can be interpreted in different ways, I do try and be good though, but I always get a little nervous when I see a new message and think "What did I do this time?" *facepalm* :)

I don't worry about it at all, the last time I was moderated was in 2007 and I've become more of a positive poster since then.

I never received a creepy message. :?

I would say just a bit. I am just a bit worried it might be a moderation. For instance I didn't see the last one coming (mods will find this weird but I didn't :() And I am saying that because some people said that if they have done something then they "expect" to have one.
