If my kid was on the Internet and they come across some random porn then fine what ever. If someone that is interacting with my kid and “around” them/playing games with them posts their own porn so that they can see it, it’s a fuck load different... to me anyway not that I have kids. But I’m sure if you think about it you would feel the same.

I don’t even think maya is a pedofile/ thought about doing it intentionally but it amazes me that she (and you and staff) don’t seem to see a problem, and would rather ban everyone else

Edit: and if you are going to bring up me having some girls rack as my discord pfp. I got my account deleted for that, and when you brought it up I thought about it and yea it was kinda weird and I won’t do it again (despite multiple requests lol) because I didn’t think about the underage kids or what ever. But maya can’t not have known because she is still backing it up... I’m not trying to be all “save the children” like you said to me I just don’t see how you don’t think it’s creepy and weird let alone support it

after reading your ban reason i just want to say its completely understandable and id much prefer staff find a way of being compensated (as you did) rather than hiring these sweaty assholes who get off on power trips.
i can see why your offense would get a harsh penalty (because your abuse messed with the big dogs and not the general community - the latter being the standard power abuse, the shit no one even bothers reporting because everyone knows the higher ups are dont give a damn).
having said that i do see why you received such a harsh penalty - i do not believe it to be reasonable... if they want you actually gone they'd need to BoS you, which they dont seem to have done anyway and honestly dont have the power to do, and the issue would be perfectly resolved by just removing you from staff. its unnecessary to keep your account banned at this point imo, and ffs its been 7 years



ive ranted countless times about how excessive punishments are a large contributing factor to the death of the community and cant be arsed to say it again, im sure everyone already knows what im talking about blah blah blah
COMPENSATE GOOD MODS OR YOU END UP WITH BASEMENT DWELLERS
honestly, props to you for abusing power in a positive way. i can actually respect that. literally everyone in the community is sick of the standard petty power flexes (get a life)

...ok, this derailed pretty hard.


Running public campaigns to have accounts' bans lifted isn't getting anywhere. Bans are ultimately between the user being banned and staff members - if you want to have your account unbanned, contact people who placed the ban (or other staff members of same level).


Yeah that's why you get to admin + TSA and then abuse the heck out of that to make some quick buck. Stands on same level as "merging all threads into one in a board you moderate is ok because you don't get paid" and "pruning forum database is ok because well ok you get paid but still something" for me.



One of the two appeals made on Stellar account:



Thread closed, if you want to appeal your ban get contact in staff.
For anyone who still wants to jump on other users / each other, remember that Off-Topic follows general rules - and, unlike in wibbles, you will get actual infractions / bans for breaking rules instead of just board permissions removal.
