No one is getting banned for disagreeing with Cryptic, if they did that, we all be gone.
Pretty much, btw I lolled at your sig
"The meaning of victory is not to merely defeat your enemy but to destroy him, to completely eradicate him from living memory, to leave no remnant of his endeavours, to crush utterly his achievement and remove from all record his every trace of existence. From that defeat no enemy can ever recover. That is the meaning of victory."
-Lord Commander Solar Macharius
Oddly enough, I find myself agreeing with nabreeki here. I've seen threads shut down without notice, and emails to the volunteer mods return back with "It wasn't me, must have been someone else". There's a Dark Moderator somewhere on this forum, who's applying a censorship on these forums, and not even the volunteer mods know what he's doing.
Those people who were temp banned in that one rash of bannings know which CM is doing it, not sure if its still happening but its not that much of a secret. It felt like someone really was cranky that day to me
sopwith: You are so full of BS. The tactics the mods take and the ninja mutes and secret bans do only one thing: They HIDE the facts from those that can still post. YOU are transferring your own accusations and thoughts onto others. Just because somebody is arrested, beat, tortured, does NOT mean they are guilty of anything or have ever DONE anything. Just because people get muted does NOT mean they deserved it in any way.
That's why it's called moderator "abuse" and not moderator "functioning normally"...
If it were all above board, the bans, mutes, and all other draconian tactics would be plain as day, clearly evident, and would withstand the most basic of scrutiny. Instead, they are hidden and secretive and they police themselves, always saying they are right because they have the power to clear themselves of any wrongdoing.
Nothing about it is legit. You pretending everybody deserves it is the epitome of ignorance and malice.

I can't think of ANY message board I've ever been to that actually allowed open discussion of moderation. the most I've ever seen is statements of "x got banned for Y" but any post bad enough to warrant a ban is also bad enough to warrant getting disappeared too. Thus you won't see it any more. Proper forum policing requires destroying the evidence.... much like dealing with graffiti or litter....
