I just got the following email:

Jorost,

Keelah has sent you a new personal conversation entitled "20% Warn Increase - OOC in an IC thread".

20% Warn Increase - OOC in an IC Thread



------------ QUOTE ----------


Er, anyway, all I'm saying is sometimes it's nice to have someone to share the burden with. I was far too much (isn't it cute how I said "was"?) of an attention whore to share the spotlight, but I sure would have liked someone to share the work!

100% Warn Reached

I tried to click the link but it tells me I am denied access. This is total fucking bullshit. The message I posted was NOT "out of character." I was speaking as a former alliance leader to the current alliance leader. I'm not sure why this stupid bitch can't understand that, but someone needs to get on the OWF and talk to admin before I drive to Cyber Nations Tower and kick her right in the schnizz. Seriously, I've just about had it with these petty little tyrants they've got running the boards.


Your beloved head of state and red senator has been wronged. GO FORTH AND AVENGE ME!!!

[Learz]

You should probably appeal that >.>
I can't see how that's OOC.

[ᗅᗺᗷᗅ]

I can't appeal it. I can't get on the forums, not even the Ban/Warn Appeal one. I sent an email, but I want a horde of Invictans and others over there protesting. Make signs, march in front of Admin Palace. Get Brehon to throw some weight around. OCCUPY CYBER NATIONS!

OCN!

OCN!

OCN!

[Learz]

Can you get on IRC?

[ᗅᗺᗷᗅ]

Not until this evening. It's blocked at work.

[Thrash]

lol

I also am not seeing how that is OOC.

[ᗅᗺᗷᗅ]

Unfortunately I am now at 100% warn, and thus, as Learz tells me, at risk of being banned from the game. I will not be available to press my case until tonight, by which time it may be too late. Anyone who cares to speak to admin in the meantime, by all means do so. Frankly this kind of petty nonsense has gone way too far. They have too many penny-ante dictators running round the boards just looking for an excuse to ban someone.

The timing of this could not be worse, as I currently have a pending appeal for some really old warns. Hopefully this gets resolved, because it would be a pretty ignominious end to my CN run.

[The Dark Empire]

I got reported or something and I got a double warning. WTF? Why two thats a load of crap I only did something wrong once.

[Redezra]

Dafaq is this bullshit?

How the crap is that OOC?

[Brandonreha]

You can be banned from the forums for being out of character?

[Arikus]

WTF did I just read?
But srsly, what is this?

[Chancellor Gunn]

Jorost is for another post you posted, not that one, that made references to a RL country. After you posted it I tried to tell you but someone else had already quoted it and you didn't respond :s

[Dan2680]

How the hell do you have 100% warn? lol. For 5 and a half years I have not received one warn.

The idea that you cannot make any references to anything outside CN is preposterous. By that rationale we shouldn't even be speaking English on the boards -- after all, how do we know English even exists in the World of Bob? No. It's completely stupid. People make RL references all the time, and nothing happens unless some petty, small-minded little prick of a mod who has nothing better to do happens to pick up on it and decide to lord their power over the "perpetrator." It's completely arbitrary and utterly unenforceable, and it needs to stop.

But it doesn't matter, because, according to the email I received, that's not even the reason I was warned. THIS is the quote that so offended "Keelah":

Er, anyway, all I'm saying is sometimes it's nice to have someone to share the burden with. I was far too much (isn't it cute how I said "was"?) of an attention whore to share the spotlight, but I sure would have liked someone to share the work!

No RL references at all there, except for the aforementioned use of the Earth-based language of English.

There has still been no movement on this. The frustratingly slow pace is more than a little galling. It took less than 24 hours for their asshat mod to impose her(?) petty little punishment -- why does it take so goddam long for anyone to address it?

[Learz]

It may be days or weeks before a response comes.

Just be glad you can still use your nation in the meantime

I'm edgy. It keeps me alert, on the edge, where I need to be.

[ᗅᗺᗷᗅ]

Also I just realized Nas has almost 2000 more posts than me. Prepare yourselves for an onslaught of nonsense. No, wait...
