A while back I was given a warning just because I posted a screen shot that had a letter missing from it.

There should be more rules for mods when it comes to masking, so they don't give warnings for something as ridiculous as that.


Here is what I posted.

Besides, it does get annoying when everyone uses their friends as threats lol. Its rediculous.

The rules state that you can not mask your words when you post. That is clearly not masking my words on the forum. It is a letter missing in an in game post and should not have been warned as a screen shot was warranted for the topic.

As I said already.

You are responsible for everything your post.

If your post does contain masking, then it does deserve a warning.

Obviously I can not fix a screen shot that was needed. So that claim is ridiculous.

So by your logic, I can post an image containing swear words and it would be perfectly ok, cause I could not edit it?

Interesting logic.

Do you see a curse word? No you don't. By my logic there is stuff that's inappropriate that would deserve a different kind of warning, but this itself should not.

The word you got warned for triggers the world filter and it is deemed as inappropriate for this forums.

And your point? I was posting evidence to something. Which is perfectly fine to do. And that single missing letter is there so as not to insult too much and soften its meaning.

And on a side note , the word is something that describes a cat so isn't exactly inappropriate.

Then plead to the admins to remove the word from the filter.

As long as it is there it is seen as offensive.

In my personal opinion, 90% of the words filtered should not be on the filter, but it is not me making the rules.

But a warning for a screen shot? That's ridiculous! The only reason that I even got the warning was because the people I was at war with were complaining about it and were trying to get me warnings out of hate. I have seen countless screen shots with stuff like that in them and they never got a warning or their post removed.

And before you say it should have been reported, those were ones with mods posting and mods themselves posting screen shots. So why does only one person get a warning for something many do?

I doubt it.

Many have been warned for posting pics or having sigs containing filtered words.

So your saying that mods never abuse their powers? Cause some do and get away with it all the time.

are you just trolling here?

Point me to a topic where someone posted a screenshot containing a filtered word and did not get warned for it as you did.

If you can't, then please stick to your case and do not try to get bring other issues into it.

if you see a word that is filtered away on these forums in any image posted here, then report it... especially if its a mod posting it... the rules affect all...

I was simplely pointing something out. As for directing you to a topic to where that was done would require some digging, and in the GC that would be too much of a hassle to do so.

And it does have to do with my case because mods are playing favorites.

If you cannot present proof, then please refrain from general accusations.

You posted a pic containing a masked word, you got warned just as everyone would be who did the same.
