Also "Just get along" implies the other side is interested in getting along. Or that they won't misinterpret your words.Ten times is very generous (and I would anticipate should anyone actually reach that threshold, there would be a moderator review before anyone were actually banned... no one involved in the admin of this forum seems to be the type to want to ban anyone - even for a week!). There's no reason to be so harsh toward the moderators, or to start ridiculously entitled threads for the explicit purpose of attacking them for doing exactly what they were asked to do (obviously not in the manner the OP wishes, but that's exactly my point - disagreement over such a minor action as a warning should not be grounds for getting bent out of shape). Our moderators are volunteers, doing the best they can, and offering the community an outsized share of their time, energy, and effort.
Its like screaming at the guy who volunteered to referee your sporting event for free.
If you have a problem with moderation, take it to a polite PM.
I 100% disagree with this and I think you're willfully misinterpreting what is going on here.
I am not saying I have any issue with the moderatiors, I'm saying I have issues with the /rules/. It's not screaming at the Ref, it's wondering if the rules of the game should be changed.
/No one/ is saying they have issues with the moderators, they have issues with how the rules are stated and interpreted. This is the /same/ exact issue which keeps shutting down threads and it's very ironic it is cropping up here as well.
DISAGREEMENT IS NOT AN ATTACK
It is disagreement. Equating the two of them seems to a be a widespread phenomenon on this site. I very much deny your claim that there is anything wrong about disagreeing with the rules and thinking they should be changed.
