Like people being really mean and stuff reporting me for my last two threads when they were highly intelligent threads, the lack of respect on these forums is horrible, my thread got locked because it was a "petition" and yet all other threads haven't been locked when they're petitions, I think the forum admins are racist against New Zealanders or something because it really hurts my feelings when people attack me in mass amounts of walls of texts and stuff
i agree with you 100% , im not from New Zealend im a close neighbour from Australia and i feel what you are feeling also. People have reported my name on many occasions of both my alts and mains and i belive it is to do with some relation to Australia being a place for convicts when it was first settled, I am not a convict and you cannot just report me for being Australian!
http://forums.startrekonline.com/showthread.php?t=97326 , this will explain the hate and pain caused by people whom do not understand my little bit of a laugh name.. For those of whom do not know anything about Australia... the first thing you should know is that it is extremely hot here for huge lengths of the year and so the name is just a little giggle to other australians and other educated people of the world.
Sorry you had problems, I am just a poster here, but feel your pain. Seems like you are upset, try not to be, many responses are not based on what you say at all.
Many people like paragraphs broken up, if they posted a wall of text remark, they did not read your post, so they really are not commenting about you at all.
I think New Zealand has a pretty good rep with most people I know, so not sure it is that, if they are making fun of your accent or something, they again are just trying to find a way to bug you, don't let um, not worth it.
Hope you feel better, everyone deserves to be listened to before being commented about.

Dude, or Dudette, you really need to lay off the victimhood angle you're trying to play. You violated the rules, and now you're in a public forum making accusations that Cryptic employee's are racist without a single shred of viable evidence to back it up.
Oh, and is this an example of highly intelligent interaction with one of your threads?
Petitions are technically against the forum rules. Complaining about threads closed by the forum admins in a new thread will also get you in trouble. Lastly, making public accusations about Cryptic employee's being racist is over the line, and I hope they ban you.

I'm not trying to say there racists, i'm just wondering why my threads get locked, and not other peoples, that's all.
I don't believe I should be banned from these forums, please do not wish that on anyone, I love reading these forums, and sometimes I enjoy to post on them, i'm not here to start a flame war, i'm just wondering where the lack of respect on these forums are at, for example you.
If I have offended the Cryptic Employees, well then i'm sorry, but I am offended myself.
From the tone of your post in this thread, you seem generally bothered, from the tone in the other one you seem to be argueing with some comments that might offend other people. Usually best to avoid strong comments, since some might see them as a bit much. If it is possible to get your thoughts across without using those exact words.

Then maybe you need to learn to communicate in a more effective manner?
You say you didn't mean to offend the Cryptic employee's. But in your first post you made the statement that you thought they were racist against a certain nationality. I'm sorry, but people will know and respond to what you say.
And like I said, you seem to enjoy playing the 'victim' card. You now claim you don't want to start a flame war, but then end that part with a dig at me. So which is it?
If anyone makes unfounded, serious accusations that could impact someone else, then yes they deserved to be banned. How would you think if the roles were reversed and some Cryptic admin was on here making public postings of false accusations against you? If that would not be acceptable, then the reverse is just as not acceptable.

"New Zealanders" aren't a race. They're a nationality. It's "nationalist" not "racist". If you want to play the race card, wear the color of your skin on your avatar or signature, not your flag.
Also, "highly intelligent" is a subjective term. For an example of why I'm doubting the "intelligence" of your threads, you seem to confuse the words "there" "they're" and "their". From that I'm going to extrapolate and suggest that perhaps you have a problem differentiating "your" and "you're" as well.
The moderators are not racist or nationalist. Read the terms of service, abide by them, and then your threads won't be locked unless someone else comes along and starts hurling around remarks against one or more protected classes.

Now shut up. You really think i'm going to read that?
I really don't blame the mods for locking these threads. Have you seen "Flight of the Conchords"? It's very understandable that your threads would be locked.
The anonymity of the internet lets people be the inner jackhole they wouldn't be to your face.
Nothing against you guys as Aussies or New Zealanders. I'm Canadian, so you guys are like my commonwealth brothers, after a fashion. On a more personal note though, lay off the petitions and don't start new threads about locked threads or discuss any type of moderator action on the forums. these are pretty much standard rules everywhere you go. Just remember that everyone's a tough guy on the internet. Thicken up the skin a little, and play by the rules. There's always going to be a disproportionately high number of A-holes on an internet game forum. Until someone invents a way to *actually* knock someones teeth out over the internet, you're just going to have to roll with the punches mate.

Well incase anyone feels that way about me, I hang out at the alphabet bar minus the a. Between Normandy Park and Seattle.
But I know what you mean, however I try to act the same way in person or online. Although most people in bars do not like my comments on these topics that much.
This has nothing to do with racism, but with forum rules.
You break the rules, you receive infractions and your post/threads might be edited/deleted/closed.
I'll close this thread also, because you're discussing disciplinary actions, this is also not allowed on this forum.
