Ok, so Fire Lotus shouldn't ban you without warning, or maybe without three warnings, but it looks like you have a few more than three warnings (19 to be exact). FWIW, did you feel like any of those prior warnings were justified? Also, do you still believe that the last two that led to your ban were non-existent? I suspect that Fire Lotus would be willing to share with you the two warnings that led to your ban. Even if she hasn't yet, keep trying, and she eventually will. Yes, believe me, I've had my go-rounds with them about what they considered inappropriate and contested every one of them. Whereas, I've personally seen mods edit other player's posts when they swear, I used the word "hell" (not telling someone to go to hell, or aiming it at anyone nor Portalarium) and it's flagged? Seriously? That's the kind of thing they did to me constantly. Envy and Wylde can post some sort of Troll meme or video with nothing about the subject, and they don't get banned. Envy has posted troll memes more times than I've been warned. Yet if I reply to that meme, my post is flagged. So they want you to lay down and get raped, otherwise it's a bannable post. On a couple of occasions, the mod told me it didn't count against me, but that was rare. I've gotten dinged for being "off topic" (inappropriate content), for example, when in a HOUSING thread, discussing more than ONE aspect of housing and the ramifications of decisions that affect housing. Subject drift is also apparently a bannable offense, even though I've seen it happen in countless threads. I've even had a post dinged when I offered sympathy for someone going through painful surgery! Those are the kind of warnings I got. Not flaming someone. They do consider dissent trolling, even when I tried to explain I believe it makes people think about more about development and what it can lead to.

It is as one sided today as it ever has been. We are just talking amongst ourselves a bit more and can see multiple people now going through this experience.
Come on, lets be honest, Caliya was banned because she is not an idiot, uses critical thought when engaging in conversation, and posts here.
For its one, two, three, strikes you're out, at the old ball game.

Does that say 'The Gassy Witches Cauldron?' I get why those wolves are keeping their distance.

I have numerous warnings for really stupid crap. But if I were to do something and they look at my account then of course I will get banned.
I think the issue is the nature of how you get warnings for really minor things. My first post, MY VERY FIRST POST, I got a warning for Carebear when I was talking bout ME in EVE. Back in 2013. I mean hell that should of been the big neon light flashing WARNING.
So if you were to just look at an account see all the warnings withotu investigating then you would probably think Well shes had enough warnings and hasnt changed the behavior then a ban is warrented.
I am not saying it is right. I think the issue lays in how the forums are moderated.
