I got an infraction for writing this:
I'd tell you to ask LJ because he worked at a Verizon store for a couple years and was the key person in bringing the iPhone to Verizon; but that is offensive to LJ, our most valued member and moderator.
Really? LOL

Go Find Yourself.

2. Do not continually harass other members (this includes moderators).

Calling someone a valued member and moderator is now harassment. Wonderful precedent.

Right, because nobody on this site knows what you really think of LJ.

Here's an idea, instead of whining about unfair treatment, just don't mention LJ.

Problem solved. You're welcome.

Might as well make the rule "No talking about anyone on the forum".

This place is a joke and its not because of the trolls its because of JJ style moderation.

Is this where I make the required "QQ" post?

Lol @ JJ style moderation. You would have been permabanned a LONG time ago if that were the case.

Might as well be permabanned. I have no interest in posting and/or reading "What did you have for lunch today" and "Look what I bought" threads; which are pretty much the only allowable threads on this forum. Judging by declining revenue and post count, this place is dying.

Have you thought about filing an appeal with the Association of The Supreme Brotherhood of Moderators?

So now you know how much revenue this site brings? Smh.

Site is dying according to who...you? I've seen a few posters come back in the last couple of weeks, and I'd guess the post counts haven't changed much either.

You say the problem is moderation, while others will say the problem is posters such as yourself.

Question...if you hate this place so much, why do you continue to post? You could stop posting if it's so bad. Then it's a win/win for everyone.

Please spare us the predictable and false "because I keep this site alive" response.

It only matters to people who have no lives and need to make posts to boost their fragile egos.

Harassment? I think I'm with sleeper on this one. He's cut the LJ profession stuff way down(in the SB forum at least). I usually get a laugh out of it and really, is it that big of a deal?

Well that's all good and well, except for the part where he was told to cut it out entirely or he would receive an infraction.

Yet, he continues to do it, gets infracted, then bitches about getting the infraction.

Of course, sleeper logic tells you he was unjustly infracted due to bad moderation.

IMO, it's gotten stale, and it's not funny anymore. It had it's time, and now it's over.

So using a joke that is stale to some is infraction worthy? He isn't constantly doing it, is it really that big of a deal? It's not like calling CC a pedo or shit like that. He said LJ worked at Verizon. Lol, oh the humanity!!!!!!

Yet you persist. You're not really a very honest person, are you?

The thing is, other members (myself included) make LJ posts and nothing happens besides the posts being deleted. I've had "expert LJ" posts deleted on two separate occasions and never received an infraction or warning.

Not a surprise that C4F 2.0 handed out an infraction.

No, but using a joke that you were told to stop using or you would be infracted is infraction worthy.

The thing is the rule is do not CONTINUALLY harass a member. Making a post or two isn't breaking rule #2.
