You were being punished for bad/unwanted behavior. If it doesn't suck then it's not punishment.

[Soulyss]

if you need to be warned to know that use of that sort of language on 200 isn't acceptable then a warning probably wouldn't have done much good.

Learn finnish and you can type/say whatever you want:D

True dast, you surely is/are(foregin language) not to even  closest 500 to get muted


but, who cares anyway... or should not care...

you got what you deserved.  Take your lumps and quit whining about what happens or doesn't happen to other people.

[Guppy35]

Yep, act the part of a person who knows right from wrong, understands that their actions impact on the people around them good or bad, and remember there is nothing worth getting worked up about in AH and you should be fine.

What cracks me up is this isn't a case of folks slipping with their words coming out of their mouth.  This is a deliberate taking the time to type something.  It's not an accident, so don't complain if you get your typing hands slapped

Only abuse was at your hands, not the Mods.

[hubsonfire]

The obvious answer is no, this is not an abuse of authority. You got exactly what you were trying to get.

Here's some advice- you will never win an argument with a moderator when you have clearly broken the rules repeatedly- don't even bother trying.

Anyone know who the monitors are?  Are they players or is it people working at HTC?

[Panzzer]

Trax, from what I've undestood they are voulunteers - would you expect someone from HTC to monitor all the channels. No one knows who they are, which is fine by me, I've never been muted (although there are a couple of times when I wish I could have kept my mouth shut). But following the lines set by HTC, strictly I'd guess.

[evenhaim]

from my experiences mods are nice. I once was knowingly over the line and instead of a perma ban a mod sent me a very kind warning (more than i deserved)

[ROC]

Sorry, you blew it be starting on with the language to begin with, then continuing on by arguing about it.

That's tough, only one way to prevent what happened to you, completely in your hands.

You were training to be a CM at one point, a while back, much worse since you should know better than to act like that to begin with.

This thread probably didn't quite go the way you were hoping, did it?
