Default Do Infractions make you change your posts?

For me they simply don't. If anything they make me more un PC. Your thoughts?

..why though..?..why would it be relevant to know that, if an infraction/ban etc is given then it would be in the admin section as to the reason so if it was thought to be unfair etc or something said which was misunderstood, then it could be discussed with any moderator/admin member ....knowing who actually gave it would just seem to me to be 'making it personal' when it's not a personal thing...

That used to be the case but we'd get a bunch of people who would be like '___ infracted me?! OMG SO BIASED' People just used it as an excuse to demonise the mod who infracted them rather than accept the blame and move on.

but to be fair, some mods are biased, and when it's a mod that clearly doesn't like you, and it's the same mod over and over and over again...that is the only one issuing you infractions...

you know that some mods DO dislike certain members, and DO target them... and that's not fair.

Except we aren't, some people just can't accept that they are in the wrong and think that the rules do not apply to them. Everyone gets treated the same, the only people that accuse mods of being biased are the ones that expect special treatment.

Alex it's pretty much impossible for us to be bias when giving out infractions because all other mods and admins see anything we do and they do question things, if they think we've been too harsh or the infraction wasn't deserved and so on, I know it's difficult to believe but it happens, you mention you've have infractions reversed in the past so doesn't that prove what I'm saying? and we also do make mistakes at times and when it's pointed out to us that also gets sorted out.

Do you feel like they have misunderstood your comment? I get that all the time.

It's strange when you post a joke comment to then be told it's litterally offensive then banned which is the last thing you actually intended.

I usually edit or delete posts that I think could get me into trouble. I'm not very good at thinking before I say things.

I've mentioned this a few times but freedom of speech is not absolute and does not give you an excuse to break the rules of the forum.

During an infraction period i tend to watch movies and chat on other forums to many people from here so the infraction period is redundant in my case for the most part.

Infractions and bans are handed out due to forum rule breaks if they aren't changing you're behaviour then they will get harsher and lead to longer or indefinite bans. It's not difficult to take part in a forum without breaking rules.

It can be when mods hand out infractions for things that aren't even against the rules
