I wish that pop up boxes (warnings) have identity attached

So that some sort of two way communication can be carried out.

As it is, you get spammed by multiple pop up boxes with no way to know who you should converse with to fix the situation.

Heed the warnings and you won't have any problems. Why is this so hard for some people to understand?

I did heed the warnings at the first pop up box.

Then 3 more arrive with zero outgoing communication by me and then the ban....without knowing who I should apologize to or an explanation.

Those boxes are warnings but, in this case, the decision for the muting was already made up making the "warnings" have zero meaning.

I understand the need for mods to have identities masked but how hard would it be to add a "reply button"?

Your only recourse is to note the day and time and send an email to Skuzzy and ask him to look into it. If it is found that you were wronged they will clear your mute and take care of the offender be it a MOD with an attitude, or a bunch of kids mass reporting you who will soon have their chat privileges suspended.

that tells me you weren't thinking about what you were saying. easiest fix...don't say/type anything that is anywhere close to stupid enough to get you muted/banned.

My advice is to log on every day and say a few vulgar words on 200.  Take inventory of all players online, if you get muted you know mods are on.  If you don't you know who the mods aren't.  Rinse repeat until you know who the mods are.  Like mastermind.

I am not a mod.

Your search is just a little bit smaller now. Your welcome.  :)

What I can't figure out, in a world based on taking the time to type the words out, that anyone has to ever be warned or muted.  You just can't 'slip' when it comes to typing.

I have been warned not to type one thing or another, and still not sure what exactly I typed to cause the filter to warn me.  I type very fast sometimes, so typos are a thing for me
