Weren't we told that we could appeal infractions etc.. by replying to this account?

Does anybody read the messages that are sent to it? I have never gotten a reply.

I know most of the time I deserve my infractions but I have definitely been wrongly infracted/banned a few times and it's very annoying to be infracted for something that is completely taken out of context. I just get ignored when I explain myself and most of the time I don't even try.

What happened to innocent until proven guilty? You can't just automatically know the context every time, if you don't know whether something is a joke or not then it usual IS a joke and you are not going to be burned at the steak by the other mods if you admit you are wrong once in a while.

Anyway, all I am saying is hear people out.

You answered your own question about the TiBB Staff account, members have no need to know who infracted them, they do use it against mods, infact there is times when someone receives an infraction and starts accusing a mod of having a vendetta against them when a lot of the times it isn't even the mod they accuse that's infracted them

As to the 'joke' comments, it doesn't matter how much you claim something you have posted was a joke or for a laugh and so on, if the person the comment is directed at finds it offensive then it's not a joke at all.

James, myself and Vicky receive the messages that are sent to TiBB Staff and as has already been posted if it's a genuine query we do post it in the mod section and discuss it or sometimes I pm the person in reply to explain the infraction etc, some can confirm this I'm sure..

Lastly, we do we admit when we are wrong, we reverse infractions and sometimes even bans more than you would think. Every single infraction and even warning that's given out generates it's own discussion thread in a reports section, if we see an infraction that we find to be a bit harsh then we say it and discuss what we think would have been more fitting, or sometimes we reverse the infractions again I'm sure some members that has had infractions reversed can confirm this.You also have to remember that we don't just go into a thread, or see a report and immediately go and hand out an infraction for what was reported, we have to read back and see how things started, check if the reported comment was in reply to a baiting comment and so on.
