Well, it appear's no matter how much you try to make good for all, some just have a bad attitude. It's a shame. It was brought to my attention that some member's are unhappy about this forum. This one appears to be one. As for the back story, it appears they received a 1 Day ban for "microposting." Pay close note that there is no revision history. I do see that this is not a micropost and the ban is already expired. It was for only one day. Well, once brought to my attention, I try to allow the user to voice their concerns to me. Not having any involvement in the past experience of this user, I send them a message inviting the opportunity to share their feedback. It seems they did not want to share. They've already messaged many of you with their opinion.
What I've taken from this is many of you are misusing PM's. It is there for you guys to talk privately but between the begging for / sharing files, advertising for profit, etc etc. it seems this privilege is frequently abused.
I've created a poll and I ask that all MODS ( with the exception to @redhat ) to not participate on this thread. I know there are some members who share the same distaste / dissatisfaction as this member. Speak up. The stage is yours. As long as you do not say / do anything excessively offensive, you are welcome to say what's on your mind. @dailyupdates can attest to my allowing one to speak. He and I had a round once and even with insults / name calling, he did not get a ban.
MODs - These are our members. Let them speak without punishment.
Now for some general guidelines:
MEMBERS - we're not talking about LIKES so there are to be no complaints about it. Also, if you have had or do have a problem with any MOD, don't say who. If it is a big enough problem, you may be contacted in private by me (even if it's about me) only to get more specifics and work towards an amicable resolution.
As for this member, yes, I know you're upset about that 1 day ban. Sorry it happened. You've expressed your disinterest to continue as a member, so I've helped you out the door. If you decide later you wish to come back, you will need to contact an admin to do so.
