Bruh. What exactly did they say? As in, did they give you a timeframe, or just nothing?

Want me to start a reinstatement thread on the Help Board?
Just the standard "reviewing posts for quality".

Nope, I'm all good. Appreciate though waspy.

I'm pretty sure they want troll garbage there. It drives up the numbers. People have requested ignore buttons for years and there's been absolutely no talk of it, not even, we'll see or something to that effect.

Yep. There’s gotta be at least 5-10 new accounts made daily just to troll on there.

I’m guilty of it because I used to get so tied up in arguments id say some dumb shit and get banned.

I used to laugh at the notion that some of those trolls were plants, but at this point I'm not sure if it's partly orchestrated or just allowed to organically fester on purpose. Either way, it's the way it is because the people in charge want it to be that way. And that's fine, but there are some of us who really don't enjoy that type of stuff.

I've been told by a certain admin who isn't on that site anymore that they have for fact done that since the beginning. I have no doubts. Damn shame. I hadn't posted for a LONG time and only gotten back to being on there. I think I'll be back to posting way less.

To be fair though, it is a FOR PROFIT site, so that's to be expected.

Give them some time to get their panties out of a wad, and we'll work on it.

Hey as a side note, I just realized we can make lists here:
  • Red
  • Blue
  • Yellow

Honestly, I don't have much desire to post over there. I didn't even for the past year or so, I just did it out of bad habit (and too often).
