Perhaps that was deleted in order to preserve anonymity once the person had slipped up and let it be known who they really were. I wonder sometimes if it's better for mods to be anonymous or for us to know who they are. I like knowing who they are as long as it doesn't mean they end up getting stick in real life for an online decision.

Wrong. they got banned for calling one moderator a ******. They knew the rules and so do you. Stop crying about it.

It's a fallacy that we have freedom of speech. There are all kinds of laws pertaining to what we can and can't say, enshrined in the laws of the land.

i aint crying i'm just pointing out the fact that there opinion was they objected to a moderator not playing by the rules
just because they objected to something does not mean that they should be banned

i have no need to cry love but i will stand up for other people when i believe they have been wronged unlike some around here

Wrong. they got banned for calling one moderator a ******. Why do you keep saying it was because they objected? They knew the rules. Good luck to them. Not as clever as they thought are they.

this is a public open forum and as such it's members should be more than welcome to express their views publicly

This is a privately owned forum and the Administrator set up the rules included in the rules is the fact that by signing up to be a member and be able to post on site no-one is to attack the moderators or staff, if you don't like the rules you can use your freedom of choice/speech and go elsewhere otherwise you have to accept the fact that it is a rule. The decisions that the moderators come to are not made on a whim and this situation is making a difficult job seem almost impossible.

If a member of the site has done something wrong then you can rest assured that the moderators will be looking for any proof of his/her misdemeanour and until they have that they cannot act, this does not mean that they are abusing power or that they should be abused by anyone that feels badly done by.

When I switched on this morning I had a message from a member 'bragging' about the fact that they have been banned, well all I can say is if anyone else thinks that getting yourself banned is a cool thing then perhaps accyweb isn't the place for you, leave the rest of us to get on with day to day discussion and heated differences but don't give us the need to start threads like this.:o

If someone went round telling lies, and writing to the paper, saying something about someone which wasn't true, for whatever reasons, maybe a grudge, then the law is there to prevent that from happening, and redress it if it does.

The Face magazine said in print that Jason Donovan was gay. He isn't. He sued them, and was compensated. Quite right too.

exactly day to day discussion even though heated - heated why? because someone disagrees with your point of view disagreeing with someones point of view = discussion exactly the reason for 1. being here and 2. for people being banned
