[Feanorcurufinwe]

1. Oops! I forgot zero!

I guess I forgot about that possibility, lol.

I won 10, lost 4.

3. Did they grant an amnesty?

I thought after getting dinged 4 times, you couldn't post here any more?

PS- TEN, man? :wtf: did you SAY? :P

[Feanorcurufinwe]

5. You had to have more than 4 to be banned

What did I say? A lot of stuff that shouldn't have gotten deleted in the first place obviously, lol.

[Bucky]

2. Had four removals, appealed three, got two reinstated.

I'm sure I would've won that fourth one, but then I said to hell with it. I was no where near my limit and the mods seemed to be overworked by DOS attack and the runaway nastiness. I mean, after all. It's only a discussion board.

4. Zero

Didn't ask for any because I didn't have any posts deleted. :shrug:

[greatauntoftriplets]

18. Same here.

:)

[kiahzero]

6. Had one deletion for calling a poster "sanctimonious"

Decided not to appeal it.

[Walt Starr]

7. All of them I guess

seeing as how I don't have any on my record any more.

:evilgrin:

8. Where do you find your "record?"

9. Go to the Lobby

Click on this:



Then Click on the "Moderator's Message" link.

[Feanorcurufinwe]

10. Go to 'Options'> 'Moderator Messages'

Yes, they've all been cleared out, it seems.

[BeFree]

11. Didn't even try

No use fighting. I was wrong in the way I made fun of those idiots. Just clicked the "I agree" button and got back into the mix.

12. 0

I got two deletions during this period and accepted them both.

[in_cog_ni_to]

13. won 2

and didn't appeal 8 reports. Was banned 24 hours after I received 7 or 8 alerts in ONE DAY! :grr: That was at the height of the Clark/Dean DU war.

I would also like to add this. I do not have one person on my ignore list and have alerted only one time while on DU. The only threads I hide are the locked ones. I like knowing what everyone thinks. I may not agree with them, but I still like to know what they have to say.

14. One - I said "Liebermaniac" ...

...but I was quoting Joe himself!

[arewethereyet]

15. I've never lost an appeal

[ibegurpard]

16. Never appealed any

Because I could see that all of my deletions were rule violations even if I did think that a few of them were overly arbitrary.

[Lefty48197]

17. I don't waste my time with appeals

Those that want to squash our speech and thoughts have already accomplished their goals merely by threatening to delete posts that they don't like.

[NewYorkerfromMass]

19. I was 1 for 2- Here's my story:

The first one I called Dean "insane" and (other things) and Skinner shot me down.

The second one I said that people who won't vote for the Dem in Nov. (ala Nader or Dean write-in or whatever) are nihilists/anarchists. Now I feel strongly about this view because I look at Nader enabling Bush to defeat Gore and all the ensuing damage to the world allowed by that and conclude that people who refuse to acknowledge that Gore was a better man and would not have done what Bush did simply don't care about the horrible consequences of having Bush in office.
IOW if you believe things have to get worse before they get better, well then I think the anarchy shoe fits.
I have actually said this before here and it is never well recieved, but looking at Iraq etc... I can only feel my arguement is reinforced.

BTW elad absolved me on this one.

[arewethereyet]

20. given the fullness of recent history

looks like your observation regarding the good doctor was accurate.

probably too late to have the verdict thrown out.

[frustrated_lefty]

21. I didn't even appeal

I asked what I did wrong and said I'm not even asking to be let back in. Elad wrote back, pointed out how I messed up, and suggested how I could avoid being in the same situation in the future. And he then let me back in.

The mods here have had a nightmare job. They've done a fantastic job and deserve appreciation for it.
