Appeal of Moderator Decision

InvertedGravity
20-01-2007, 18:03
I indeed tried to appeal but the administrator mail is giving a false return.
So Ill be posting here. My apologies for the off topic post. I really doubt the competences of the moderator blaming him a lack of insight, objectivity and above all intelligence. (or is that subject to another thread? can someone be blamed for his shallowness?)

This message regards a serious 'Why?' my message got deleted.

This is the link to thread:
http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=514773

This is the original message and question which started the thread:

Two minuites to live

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ok, use your imagination here:
Its the very last day before the entire earth is distroyed by something. Everyone has a very very short space of time to live, and so there are no consiquesces. What would you do?
Kill someone? Eat a deep fried mars bar? Kill a deep fried mars bar?


This is my first message:
(message 31) Think Ill have a flash of remembrances passing my mind. Perhaps in this acute state of confusion where I tend to think I forgot something Ill just maybe remember the first days I came to life. Ill think warmhearted of the people close to me and carry my thoughts up to the roof where Ill await the rush of adrenaline warming my body whilst I see the city going under and die with a perverted smile.

An example of the wrong direction the thread was taking ...

Here I only point out that the original message is misunderstood (explained in the message)
True, I might have said some words which are controversial but it was only meant as a challenge. For people to prove they can do more then just
fuck, kill and rape (there are numerous messages in this sence throughout the whole thread).

After my message there was no message of this kind at all! What did I do wrong?

(deleted message of InvertedGravity 12:11)
With this message I answered the questions thrown at me. I explained me and appealed poetic freedom.
Is this message that shocking? This is not even a fraction of violence what happens today! It could be part of a thriller, or even a poem (if you disagree then you haven't read a lot of poems)

(By cluchstan message 119)Let's see...you've made three posts on this forum, all of which said you'd like to rape someone. Run along, troll.

He's totally wrong, Ive Never wrote that Id like to rape someone. He just assumed that was why my messages were deleted. And I can't defend myself
because my post is deleted again.
Im trolling? Defending is not allowed but compromising is?


I really think moderators are a must and I encourage it but there's a point when the decision of the mod
is doubted that it should be analyzed. Are my messages really that inappropriate, not on topic?



P.S. since the deletion of my posts users are again posting in the wrong direction. they assume they come to
know 2 minutes before the world is collapsing. In stead they have a whole day and the question is what will
they do with the last 2 minutes. Its a world of difference...

Thanks for considering.

I have moved your post to the correct forum so your appeal will reviewed.

For reference, here's the thread where InvertedGravity's posts were first reported (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=514997).

Since I am the one who reported your posts to moderation, here are my two cents:

I reported three posts from that thread: Sominium Effectus' post that said "Rape a chick" and your two posts talking about "fucking and raping" someone and describing how one would go about that (including finally killing them), respectively.

All three posts were deleted.

If I understand what you are saying here now correctly, you never actually said that you would "fuck and rape and kill" someone - you just posted that because you thought other people in the thread were actually contemplating things like that and you wanted to show them how wrong that was and make them think about it?

Okay...


I didn't save your first post, so I can't quote it, but I do remember that it was sufficiently unclear and hard to decipher for me to have to read it several times and still not be sure about much except that it finished with "fuck and rape someone" (and kill them, if I recall correctly, but I might be mistaken and that might only have come up in the second post).

So maybe this is just a case of English not being your native tongue and us all misunderstanding you. That would be unfortunate and would mean that you would hopefully try to formulate your posts clearer in the future - yet I would very much want to question why, when Kiryu-Shi and Imperial isa asked how it was possible to "fuck and rape" someone, you answered with this (your second deleted post, which is still visible in the thread because two people quoted it):

Im not saying everyone who posted lived his life stupid.

Allright, you find yourself a nice girl. She's pretty and since you have only a day left she looks to have something special, mystical. You both aggree to make actual love. Love like you have never experienced before, for all people, for life, for this soft body under (or on top, or sideways) you. Suddingly something struck you (probably a recall to this NSforum) and you hit her as hard as you can in the face shouting 'You stupid bitch' and start to fuck hard, occassionally hitting and swearing and you end this last epic with one bang. The fading sound of a shotgun.


To me, that is more than appalling and disgusting. To you, it apparently was this:I explained me and appealed poetic freedom.
Is this message that shocking? This is not even a fraction of violence what happens today! It could be part of a thriller, or even a poem (if you disagree then you haven't read a lot of poems)


I'm rather confused - were you still showing others the wrongness of their - assumed (!) - ways? Or were you dabbling in twisted poetry?
What is the point of that whole post if it's not to talk rather rapturously about how one would go about fucking, raping and killing a girl?


Moreover, what on earth does any of this has to do with this: P.S. since the deletion of my posts users are again posting in the wrong direction. they assume they come to
know 2 minutes before the world is collapsing. In stead they have a whole day and the question is what will

According to you, your posts were misunderstood and hence wrongfully deleted.

Well, if that was indeed the case, maybe you should simply make sure that your future posts won't be misunderstood like that anymore.

Do you report all posts you don't understand or are rapidly touched by the tension of words? And hide for them?
You've totally read that post wrong. And Im sure it wasn't my English.

apparently there are more users with intelligence deprivation so I explained how it could be possible to fuck, rape and kill someone. In that order. Just to enlight them. No offence is meant by it and it servers the only purpose to be an example of the cruelty in the world which they don't seem to be aware of.

As I said it is not a how to. If you see it that way then I apologize and hope you don't get to read the newspaper nor read fairy tales (which have a serious extend of violence implemented)
Really, do you report all things you can't handle? In stead of reporting you could ve asked me in the thread why it was so violent and explained why it touched you in such an order. Im sure I would ve apologized.

Yes, the post where I explained the misunderstanding of the original message is misunderstood. My twisted poetic answer wasn't. However I can live with it some people find it hard to digest and it was therefore deleted.

That doesn't explain why however why my following posts were deleted since they were only a defence against Cluichstan blaming me of things Ive never said.

Perhaps if you were able to present your views and statements in a more cohesive and legible manner, and were not so hung up on pointing out others faults and failings, both real and imagined, while you yourself are guilty of much the same or worse, it might help your case somewhat.

If you read earlier here, HotRodia stated that it is under review, in spite of your insistence that the Moderators are just biased, stupid, and unable to do their jobs adequately. Look to thine own eye, etc etc, blah blah.

You've totally read that post wrong. And Im sure it wasn't my English.
I've reread that post two times now, including the thread, and while I can see some of what you were basing your post on, you took it too far. Hence the post getting deleted.

Want to explain the contradiction there? It *was* a how to. Don't try to say it wasn't.

Really, do you report all things you can't handle? In stead of reporting you could ve asked me in the thread why it was so violent and explained why it touched you in such an order. Im sure I would ve apologized.
Or... since extremely violent/graphic posts are not allowed according to the Rules thread (http://forums3.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=416023), reporting it makes perfect sense.

That doesn't explain why however why my following posts were deleted since they were only a defence against Cluichstan blaming me of things Ive never said.
Your following 4 posts were all exactly the same. Flames directed at Cluichstan because you felt his post was over the line.

I fail to see any problems with how HotRodia acted. You however, apparently reposted that same last message *knowing* it had been deleted by a moderator. I strongly suggest you read the One Stop Rules Shop and the General Forum Advice thread. Your appeal of Hotrodia's actions is denied.

And to clarify, this appeal was looked at not only by Erastide, but by a Senior Game Moderator as well. I see no reason to overrule HotRodia's decision nor Erastide's response to the appeal.

And for the record, it is generally not recommended that one try to appeal a forum problem directly to the admins. That is the FINAL recourse when there is a SERIOUS problem. And however much you may think otherwise, a few posts being deleted is not a serious problem.

If you pay attention on the daily communication you would ve noticed it is hard to see something not as a how to (or in my case a how not to), try columns, conversations with your friends, whatever. Even in your answer I can see a how to (how to be stupid for example) luckily for you I don't. That's because generally dialogues evolve around verbs and verbs have the intention to inherently show an act.



Your following 4 posts were all exactly the same. Flames directed at Cluichstan because you felt his post was over the line.



He didn't cross the line then? I thought it was not honourable blaming someone for things one didn't say (especially concerning a topic like rape). Actually, I can't think of many who would let it pass lightly.


Having this said Im inclined to agree if this is the idea which the majority has. I apologize to all whom I might have shocked and apologize to the moderators for their time put in this appeal. There are with no doubt more useful things.

Ok, I had 3 posts when you accused me of having said Id like to rape someone. Yes? Thats what you're saying. Now, how do you explain the first post missing the word rape? Thats 1 of 3. The second post, I can understand it might ve been confusing for some unfortunate ones however there are that understand and I quote Erastide: I've reread that post two times now, including the thread, and while I can see some of what you were basing your post on, you took it too far. Hence the post getting deleted.

It never said I wanted to rape someone. Thats 2 of 3.

In the third post Ive never used 'I' and as you can read earlier you can understand it 's not even used ambiguous for me to rape someone.

Thats 3 of 3.

Now I ask you with all your genious to point out where I said I like to rape someone?
