Depends on who you are. Longtime members, at least certain ones, can do pretty much what they want to. I've seen that going on for years.

Bullshit.

If it's the thread I am thinking of, some of those people are lucky they are still able to post here.

because they uploaded something that was "questionable"? that woudl be VERY VERY weak to be banned for that, it was burried deep in there and its not like there was a post about hosted "questionable material"

and the stupid jenna lewis thread didnt get locked or deleted, so why this one

The last page pretty much spelled it out as to where some of the questionable material was. At least what I read before it got deleted.

That is exactly what I someone told me when I asked why some stuff got locked and ppl got banned ... while a different member did the same thing and nothing happened. "Depends on who you are, and which mod is on duty."

After that, I actually emailed a mod and asked for clarification on stuff. Who ever it was... they were super nice, and said ... it boiled down to... that they do the best they can but cannot be everywhere at once.

but at least I got a nice and polite response, really quickly.

🙂
 
If this is about the server thread I was wondering the same thing. I replied to it and it was gone. I don't understand why they don't just lock it instead of making it disappear into thin air.

You don't pay much attention do you? There was a member given a vacation for saying "B!tch", while another member has the name "RagingBITCH". Hmmm....

Must have been a new Mod or something. They do the best they can, they do decently well for being self moderated.

ATOT MODs are like gods, they do what they want when they want and if you question them you get banished.

EDIT: for a week at least
