Administrators: Member Suspensions.

[n00bl3t]

So, I did not really mind moderators given the right to administer temporary forum bans, considering that they can already suggest and get an Administrator to do it for them behind closed doors in a skype chat somewhere.

What currently bugs me is Cannon's previous assurance that posting in their own sanction thread after being banned, requesting clarification for the ban and contesting it I am sure, by inference would be allowed.

Waratah was banned June 19 by Dab.

He used the Mimic account to request clarification.

Mimic is banned by Alvin on June 20.

Account name: .Mimic.
Duration: [color=#33CC00]48 hours
Reasons: For posting under an Alt account whilst banned.
Comments: Obviously this is a no-no, this suspension is pending an Administration review.

The only reasoning given is for posting under an alternative account. Nothing else.

Mimic did not even post outside his sanction thread after the Waratah account got banned.

The whole thing sounds fishy.

Not to mention, Waratah's reasoning in his original sanction sounds legitimate. "I could make this for you...and it will actually be a professional effort." Seriously? He could easily be advertising his products professional nature. (In fact, that is his reasoning.)

This sounds utterly draconian, and should be reviewed. If you cannot describe your products as an actual professional effort, then something is wrong.

Anything I say is not intended as offensive, and to try and deliberately misinterpret it as such would be an attempt at trolling via misrepresentation.

It's not a conspiracy, it's localised bias. They're not intelligent enough to form a conspiracy.
