I`m sure you will make up the 170 minutes at double the rate.
You do every morning. Mostly whining and pouting because you refuse to listen to common sense and don`t understand that when you fly an anvil, you are going to get hammered.

Great, then stop doing it.

Either you have brain damage, or a level of immaturity that in inconsistant with civil behavior, if you can't control what you TYPE.   You don't BLURT out when you type....

Control  yourself, or get muted.   Big deal.

Consider yourself lucky for getting what you got ... If I was a monitor and you told me where to go, it would be quite evident that you didn't need more mute time ... it would be "boot" time.

so who gets the privilege of playing GOD & allowing little or no consequence for one & screw the next players game time?

Well ... I think the BIG "GOD" would of course be HT ... I would think that anyone on the HTC Staff have been given god-like powers by the BIG GOD.

Also, their are some mortal minions that have been given god-like powers too, but they are under scruitiny by the upper level gods.

Anyone who comes here to the BBS to seek sympathy or an explanation of why they got muted for using vulgar language should not be surprising at all.

The level of common sense/intelligence exhibited, that resulted in the "mute", is also evident in the action of creating such a post.

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

Not only that, but the "S" word by itself will not make it thru the filter. The person typing has to somehow, with intention, create a text string with the "S" word in it to get it by the filter for the Mod to even see it. Therefore, it really is a more deliberate act and could never be construed as "accidental".

The only thing I see wrong is the invisible monitor system - but finally I have a solution to fix it without revealing the players ID.  Whenever you are muted by a monitor you should receive a popup saying you have been muted and given the time, amount of time muted and a 2 or 3 digit monitor ID unique to that monitor that never changes.  I personally despise a 'secret police' style of moderation... If I were a monitor and had to mute someone, I'd be willing to tell them i did it.

There is a server log of the text buffers from what I understand. If the guilty party believes that they were treated unjustly, they simply need to call HTC and tell them "WHEN" it occurred ... they can look at the logs to see the coversation and I am sure that they could also see/determine who did the muting.

This thread really should not have been started.  Moderators are not there to control anyone's behavior.  Moderators are there in the case where a player cannot control thier own behavior.

If you choose to be derogatory or abusive in any manner at all, you are making the choice to be muted at the same time.  There is no rationlization you can use to justify your behavior.

The moderators are monitored by HTC.  The only abuse here was done by the original player.

You want to know what is acceptable and yet you come to the bulletin board, which has written rules and you violate them.  I think it is pretty clear what this is about.
