Thread: What defines the site's punishment?

As someone who got banned from elliquiy I have some questions to the system here since the reason I got banned for in Elliquiy was simply appauling in my opinion and I wanted to have some specifics on how the system works since both the process, reason and result of elliquiy's system were unsatisfying to say the least. First my Elliquiy case to give you a picture so you don't have to blindly follow my description The offense was committed in the lieges-only forum, where I posted a rather bitter post saying that diverse opinions weren't really allowed here and that I would stick to roleplaying. I doubt my post was deleted so it should still be there. Therein lie my first three points of criticism. 1. I never had time to edit my post to make it more forum friendly, I got no warning, I was just instantly banned a few minutes after I made that post 2. The post was rather bitter but I actually stated inside that I wouldn't post anything anymore as to prevent me from saying anything banworthy, apart from it being rather ironic it's rather weird to ban someone for saying they won't do anything banworthy. 3. The post seemed to have been the reason for which I was banned. Such was hinted at by the oracle that was also posting in that thread. the official statement on why I was banned also says that I couldn't agree on the rules of forum etc. saying that I was being impolite to put it mildly. The letter I got from Mithlomwen however said something different. Rather than banning me for my last post which was the official reason. The first answer I got was the same as the official reason See more If you did not receive a message that you were denied as a duplicate account, it means that the approval team does not feel that you will contribute meaningfully to Elliquiy's community, now or in the near future. Quite simply, this message means that we do not want you on Elliquiy the way that you have presented yourself to us. While denial is not always permanent, it does mean that we expect you to accept the decision rendered to you and explore other roleplay avenues for a significant amount of time. Elliquiy staff does not give detailed reasons for denials, so please don't ask us for them. Any such requests will be ignored. But I continued inquiring and I suddenly got a totally different answer See more ...falls afoul of rule 11--Elliquiy is not a mental institution. The reason was suddenly a much earlier post I posted a week before about my problems with the thought of suicide. Seems to fit but that was the topic everyone was talking about. The entire discussion was transpeople feeling suicidal and voicing their opinions. And noone else got banned. Afterwards my denial thread progress that's important for later not the thread itself got deleted only the post withinwas deleted and everything lost apart from a few things I copied onto another forum. Part2 I kept visiting the website because I couldn't believe that one person just threw my out which brings me to another issue. I was banned by one person Sherlock apparently reported me but Mithlomwen was the only one who talked to metalked in the sense of you're annoying go away. So when she said the mentors will come together and decide about your punishment what mentors exactly? There were plenty of mentors who liked me and plenty who disliked me. The decision could have gone either way but Mithlomwen got her opinion through cause she was one of the ones that hated me. It seems to convenient for her. On one occasion on my countless visits to the site in the hopews of my case being discovered I saw that I had access to another denial thread. I made an earlier post describing this so I'll just copy paste it here See more Elliquiy chapter 2 Now I visited the website a few times cause i couldn't let go of it and saw that I had access to another guy's denial thread for some reason. Apparently the guy got banned for complaining about being overweight or something, again the adminsgods were as clear as fog about their reasons. He said in one of the posts that he lost 70 pounds in the last few months. I thought great, nice job, I like that. Guess what I did which made the admins completely lose their guess what do it I complimented him on losing weight ................. what happened after that was more Allahu Akbar than I think we might be in disagreement My denial thread the actual thread this timegot closed and all contact options to the admins closed and destroyed so I had no ability to defend myself. And I got permabanned without any explanation apparently for complimenting someone on losing weight I'm gonna go get some coco...... I made another post complaining about the treatment after which I was banned from using the isolation room so I had no way to contact the mods. Within days my entire existence was robbed from me, I couldn't read pms, I was banned without warning or chance to edit anything, any method of communicating with the mentors I made friends with were and Mithlomwen the goddess that hated me from day 1 was the only one deciding over my fate. I think it's quite understandable why I've begun to simply fear mods so I wanted to ask how the system works and why someone would get 1 person vendetta'ed like that.
