Hey, anyone like to share any times they've been moderated, maybe you have know idea why, or think its unfair, or just did something foolish that was technically against the rules.

I was once moderated for comminting an illegal activity. I was having trouble with a pre-owned game, because it used steam, and sarcastically (I think anyway I might have been serious, was a while ago) asked if anyone would mind me using their account (something im not asking for here).

Also rick-rolling is banned, I can't remember rolling rick but acording to my moderation history I once did.

I got moderated once because I posted "Shananananawful" in a thread called "Your opinion on Disturbed", I just don't think the moderator got the joke.

Once I got banned for posting a coupon. Thankfully they let me back in though (I'm still happy about that :)). I've never posted any deals or coupons since and never will...

I usually don't know what I've been modded for because I go into a lot of different threads. It would be nice if the mods would tell you, "you said X in thread Y, and that violates rule Z."

Nothing has happened to me yet, but I've tried to post in threads with completely benign and appropriate topics a few times that were randomly locked.

In a topic about Al-Qaida and Afghanistan I said "I refuse to believe that some Afghans had the intelligence and organization to pull off something of this proportion" People called me racist and I got modded. In reality tho I meant intelligence as military intelligence like CIA ( Central INTELLIGENCE Agency) and organization as military organization (proper hierarchy, supplies...etc). I found the moderation to be really random, and being called racist :|

All of moderations were from me not reading the ToU. I read it and haven't been moderated since. Nov 30 marks me being mod free for 3 years. :)

I get modded for worthless things all the time, unfortunately. The most ridiculous ones are when I repeat a joke we might've said in LBL and it's taken out of context and considered flaming or trolling. I'd dispute them, but I don't really care enough. I've had a few instances where I didn't really know why I've been moderated either, but I haven't disputed them for the same reason. Not to say I haven't been justly moderated before though. I definitely deserved a few of them.

They still hand out moderations? Thought that was a thing of the past. :P

Anyway haven't been modded in a long time now... And those I got, I deserved.

I once pulled a knife on GabuEx and threatened him. GS had the audacity to moderate me. I mean seriously, I was only joking, and it was a plasticbutter knife.

Was it for bumping an old thread? Or was it a moderation for something you posted a year prior?

If it was the latter and it wasn't something really offensive like porn, then I hope you disupted that moderation.

I was once moderated because I said I preferred Beethoven to Mozart. Not sure what moderator it was that hit me with the violation . . . . .

Good idea.:)

I took it a step further and read what the moderators posted...best training to avoid moderations is to listen to the mods.

I got modded for using the more offensive word for someone who is mentally uncapable...the "r" word, twice. I guess that is the worst I've been modded for.
